The Gregg-Cable House, also known as the Becky Cable House was built in 1879 in Cades Cove.
It was the first frame house constructed in Cades Cove, this structure served as both the Gregg family home and the family business. The family lived on the upper floors and ran a store downstairs, a custom brought to America by their European ancestors.
The Cable family ran the store for eight years before converting it into a boarding house."Aunt Becky" ran the boarding house and cared for her brother's children. She also managed her brother's farm, raising gardens, cattle and food for herself, her family and her boarders. Becky Cable died in her Cades Cove home in 1940 at the age of 94.
