Pam Sadler is an event planner and can help those desiring to host an event or wedding on the property. She has been doing it for many years and upon request can give information on local caterers in the area. One guest said this of their experience with the property and the events that are held there: "We rented all of the cabins and the chapel which were the perfect size for our 12 person wedding party (including us). The cabins each have their own personality and rustic charm, with beautiful porches that overlook the river or forest. The chapel is absolutely gorgeous and Pam helped us set up the alter with ferns and logs to match the boho style we were going for. As an event planner myself, I can say that Pam is a rare find and our wedding wouldn't have been anywhere near as seamless without her help."
Weddings and other events at Nolichuckey Bluffs need to be scheduled in advance and can have additional fees. The establishment is open year-round for visitors and is available for all age groups. The cabins and the general region are busiest and most crowded around the fall between August and October but can also be fairly active in parts of the summer.
The Nolichuckey Bluffs Bed and Breakfast Cabins have been in business since the 80s. The owner Pam Sadler's father originally bought the property with ten acres and the log cabin built in 1936. It was there that they made "a home away from home" where they could get away and enjoy the area. Eventually, family and friends asked to join, and many people desired to come to the property. Pam's father decided to build a few more log cabins and eventually run his own bed and breakfast year-round. They bought more property and continued to construct more cabins. They are currently in the process of restoring another cabin that was on the property that was built in 1938. Over the years, the owners noted that they nearly always seemed to be hosting a wedding on the property too, when finally, in approximately 2006, they constructed a small chapel where couples could have more formal events held at the establishment. The family has been helping plan weddings ever since and have continued to host events and improve their bed and breakfast as much as they can.
