There aren't many places to stay around here. If you want a clean, decent motel at a reasonable price, there's the Jordan Motel on Highway 127, south of Jamestown. http://www.jordanmoteltn.com  They have a pool and they allow pets.

If you prefer a lovely, gracious bed and breakfast with wonderful food, you will like Wildwood Lodge. They also have cabins and a barn for equine guests and they are considerably closer to Big South Fork. Here's their link: http://www.twlakes.net/~wildwoodbed

Laurel Fork Rustic Retreat has a number of beautiful rental cabins, such as Hemlock Bluff, that sleep various numbers of people. They are all log cabins and most have spas. Laurel Fork has its own website where you can read the description of each cabin and view a calendar with the dates of its availability. It is located minutes from Big South Fork. The link is: http://www.laurelfork.com

There are two "commercial" rental cabins in Spruce Creek that also have their own websites: http://www.kickingbackcabin.com and http://www.gafoxtrotters.com/BigSouthForkVacationCabin.htm
