The site consists of Sequoyah's 1829 log cabin enclosed in a protective native stone cover building built in 1936 by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) surrounded by a 10 acre park. Although Sequoyah did not know how to read or write he developed a working Syllabary that enabled the entire Cherokee Nation to become literate within a very short period of time. At the museum today Cherokee history and basics of his Syllabary's use are taught, and exhibits and artifacts of early Cherokee life are on display. In 1966, Sequoyah's Cabin was designated a National Historic Landmark.

When i was in the 5th grade we took a field trip here, now my middle child is in the 5th grade and they do not do this trip anymore. We have decided the whole family needs to go this weekend. I am more excited than they are!
This far exceeded my expectations. Lovely setting, very well maintained, and grounds are very well manicured. I highly recommend this attraction - all ages will enjoy this site.
