Full Log Cabin,11 wooded acres near Franklin NC. Sleeps 16 in Beds. Waterfalls.

This gorgeous full-log home is located 11 miles from Franklin, NC on 11 wooded acres near the top of Bench Mountain. It sits at an elevation of 2,785 feet with a great view of the surrounding valley. This secluded property is bordered by the Nantahala National Forest with mountain hiking. The 4,400 sq ft, three story cabin contains: 4 custom decorated family suites, a loft, and 4 1/2 baths. Awesome 1,100 square foot game room in the lower level. It is lavishly furnished with art-work caliber hand-crafted live edge pieces. This home contains all the amenities necessary to enjoy your North Carolina vacationing experience. The Master Suite, called the Buck & Doe Room contains a handcrafted custom king bed. The Bear Den has a queen bed, the Western Room has a queen bed. The Rustic Barn Room has 2 Queen Sharper Image Memory Foam beds. The Cowboy Loft has a pull out queen couch. A wrap-around porch on the main floor is accessible from the Master Suite and the Bear Den, with the main Viewing Deck completely covered, and has a staircase to the lower level deck. The game room (Little Critter Room) has six custom bunk beds, each with outlets, lights and chalk boards.

We loved everything in this property. We had book the property for two days and felt its not enough to explore it to fullest. Kids and adults had great time in the game room, it was the best part of our stay. We didnt have to worry about kids, It was safe and entertaining. Multiple firepits and enough firewood. Plenty of outdoor space to relax and play. We will recommend and we will come back for sure for longer stays.

We had a fabulous time! It was a trip with extended family to celebrate my mom's 80th birthday and she says it's her favorite family trip we have taken because it was so peaceful and relaxing. There were so many fun things for the kids to enjoy outside and we loved how secluded the property was. We had fires every night, enjoyed hiking and the different swings and hammocks and all the great seating outside. The photos don't do the house justice, if we didn't live so far away we would buy it! Beds were comfortable and there are plenty of bathrooms. Kitchen was well outfitted and it was easy to cook meals for 16 people. The downstairs room was so adorable and the kids just loved all the bunks. We hope to come back again!

Extended family getaway

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful home and retreat. The expanse and beauty of the property absolutely exceeded expectations. The wild rasberries, humming birds, and visiting deer were an added bonus. Hot tub was great, beds were comfortable, kitchen was well-equipped and impressive. Recommend 4 wheel drive for the unpaved drive.

The hiking and spelunking was exceptional.

After climbing the steep driveway to the peek of the overlooking cabin the three families found their appropriate rooms and settled in. First impressions were great. Spacious and stocked kitchen and amazing basement game room for the kids and adults alike to have fun in. The trails were great and the two mines we explored left us eager to return. Hot tub was cozy and the playground was a cool design.

Great place for a large group!

My church youth group had a great stay here and enjoyed all the outdoor space. Lots of lady bugs inside but otherwise the house is beautiful and has lots of space for a large group. The driveway wasn’t too bad but it’s definitely an experience! We would stay here again!

Location and property was awesome. Facilities and amenities were plenty. Clean and neat. Great outdoor. Great kitchen, plenty of dishes, plates, pots, pans. We enjoyed our stay. Kids enjoyed the basement with all the games. Lady bugs and stink bugs somehow find their way and were everywhere, including beds.

Full of adventures

Our family had a fun 6 day stay at the cabin. After figuring out how to negotiate the long, steep, and curvy gravel driveway when we first got there, we were very pleased with what awaited us at the top. The cabin was everything as described; the grandkids had fun sleeping in the bunkbeds in the play room downstairs, as well as the outdoor swings and games. The adults enjoyed the upstairs and the great outside amenities, including the fire pits and hot tub. Most of all, the two abandoned mines were enjoyed by all.

Beasley Mine Awesomeness

First and foremost the beds are super comfortable. The entire family commented on good sleeping. All activities pictured in the house were great. The host was super fast with communication and we even explored the mine. Great Kitchen, grill, etc. Highly recommend this place. The best part is that the owners use this place which usually means it has all the little things you need. The pictures don't do it justice.

Perfect week in the mountains

Everything about this property is wonderful. There is so much to do and the lodge is huge and beautifully decorated. The driveway was a little scary the first time up but not quite so after that initial time. I don’t advise you to attempt it the first time in the dark. Can’t think of anything negative to say about this property. The Mountain Views were amazing and especially in the morning with the fog. We all had a fantastic mountain vacation and would love to come back again sometime.

Yona Wrestling Stay

We traveled to Cherokee/Franklin for a wrestling weekend at The Yona. Four of our families stayed in this home and we had plenty of space. The house was clean, spacious, and had many amenities that kept our crew highly entertained during our stay. Our only complaint is that we didn’t get to enjoy the house as much as we would have liked since we were at a wrestling tournament all weekend. Each of us agree that we’d love to rent this home again as warmer days approach so we can really enjoy not just the home, but the amazing property the lodge offers. We had great communication leading up to our trip. Absolutely no complaints.

Birthday trip of a Lifetime

What a wonderful, magical hideaway this amazing property is. Our family of 16, ages 8-80, spent a week celebrating birthdays and enjoying the comfortable, clean cabin perched on the mountain. There is so much to do on the property, including hikes, abandoned mines, waterfalls, hot tub, fire pit for smores, and a hammock and swings for just relaxing. Sitting on the porch provided an amazing view of the mountains in the distance while the youngsters enjoyed volleyball, corn hole, and horseshoes below. The bedrooms and baths were comfortable and so interestingly appointed with various outdoor themes, and the game room well equipped including bunks to sleep 6. The host was so very welcoming and immediately available for any communication. This property is a jewel for any large group. We loved it and hope to return!

Could have stayed for a month!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautifully decorated property and honestly didn’t want to leave! The house is well-equipped for a large group, accommodating our family of children, young adults, and adults with ease. There’s so much to do here, from hiking and spelunking to stargazing and relaxing on the porch with a glass of wine. The numerous fire pits and trails provided days of fun and exploration, and the game room was one of the best we’ve experienced. One note for future guests: the driveway leading up to the property is a bit rugged and challenging to drive on, so I’d recommend a 4-wheel drive vehicle and caution against using a low-clearance car. Our host was incredibly communicative, keeping us updated with all the details we needed throughout our stay. Unfortunately, we were only able to stay for a week and couldn’t fully enjoy all the amenities the property has to offer. We’re already looking forward to coming back and making the most of it next time!

Something for everyone at this lodge

The owner is very responsive and has great communication. Was quick to respond when we reached out. The owner has put a lot of thought into this property. There is so much to do on the property for everyone. It was great exploring the trails and waterfalls, and the mine. They are fully stocked with board games, dvd videos, and books. There are plenty of comfortable sleeping areas. Lots of places outside to relax...swings, hammock, fire pit, hot tub. You are in nature...so expect bugs of all kinds and sizes. Lots of beautiful birds too. There is hand soap, but be sure to bring your own soap and shampoo. To get up to the lodge, with its beautiful view, you go up a very steep and narrow, winding dirt road. It is much easier with 4 wheel drive. There is a lot to do in the area. Its a great location. Would definitely recommend this lodge for a fun getaway in nature. We had a large group of various ages, and everyone really enjoyed

Excellent family home

Our extended family, ranging from 1-67 years of age, enjoyed a wonderful stay in this clean and spacious home in the Great Smoky Mountains region. There was ample room for sleeping with comfortable beds. The children enjoyed the bunks and spending time with their cousins on the property. It was nice to have so many outdoor and indoor activities to choose from. The kitchen had ample equipment and the second fridge in the basement was very helpful. The owner was very responsive to any questions. The basement is naturally cooler and the top floor a bit toasty but the ceiling fans, space heaters, and box fans supplied throughout make the entire home comfortable. The sturdy built in safety gates were wonderful with little ones and additional ones were supplied to be used as needed. Though others have mentioned the steep, 3/4 mile drive up to the lodge, it is doable. Highly recommend only going up and down in daylight if you are not used to driving on a mountain. This is an excellent location and home for a family getaway.
