Fall Family Weekend

We loved our stay in Franklin! The house was spacious enough for 8 adults and 7 kids. We loved the outdoor spaces as well. We explored Franklin one day and stayed at the house the next. There was plenty for the kids to do to stay entertained! We were also impressed with the amount of supplies that were available in the kitchen. There were also more than enough linens to use. We will definitely be back!

Amazing Cabin!!!

Cabin is very nice and stocked with everything you will need!!! Plenty of towels, extra blankets and pillows, games, etc. Kitchen is also extremely well stocked with utensils, pots and pans!!! My only advice is if you aren’t acquainted with mountain roads/driving, try to time your initial arrival before sunset to get familiar. Guest host is also very nice and responds promptly!

Great House!

Four families came together for a few days and had a great time! Nice and roomy. Gorgeous laundry room. Tons of games! Nice hot tub. Five kids ages 12 down to 6 months and it was perfect for them. Main con is we didn’t have any cell service. Turned out to be somewhat nice so we focused on making memories, but not good for the ones that had to work. Overall, we all had one of the best vacations ever!

Perfect

This cabin is beautiful, just like in the pictures. The kitchen was equipped with anything you would need. There is a big dining room table for a large group plus a porch with a table and chairs if you want to sit outside. We sat around the fire pit every night and the kids made s'mores. The fire pit is very close to the cabin and although it states that it's shared with the other cabins, only this cabin has a direct access through the basement door (which is also where the hot tub is located). We really enjoyed our vacation in this area and visited several waterfalls with swimming holes, the Biltmore Estate and Highlands. We would definitely book this cabin again.

Beautiful Home in the Mountains

What a beautiful house in the mountains. The home is extremely well stocked with blankets/towels and such. All of the rooms are large, and their is plenty of privacy for those who want it even with sharing the house with friends. One of the things that we love to do when we go to the mountains is spend sometime around the firepit and playing board games, the firepit is very nice & there was plenty of wood precut and available. The number of board games was immense, and there are a lot there that we hadn't heard of or played before. The location is wonderful with it being out of town enough that you are in the mountains, and feel fairly secluded but close enough that once you make it down the mountain you are a short easy drive into town. Finally the owner checked in on us both before and during our stay and has a spectacular property manager who is right down the road and happy to help. I would highly recommend it!

This house, location, team is the absolute best

We stayed for one week for a family reunion. This home is absolutely beautiful! The directions to the house that evolve provides are wonderful. They had everything we possibly needed- plenty of bedding, towels, games. I don't know what else you'd need! The kitchen had EVERYTHING and more. The house was clean and perfect for a large family to stay in. The hot tub area is beautiful and lots of fun happened in the basement rec room! Jeanette was so responsive when we had a hot tub question. You can fit a few extra cars if needed. They also have baby gates and a high chair, which was nice not to bring. The outdoor areas were beautiful- a deck with a table you could eat at with a gas grill, sitting area near the hot tub, fire pit, playground, front porch, beautiful view! The town is beautiful with a nice shopping area, and plenty of awesome hikes nearby. Can't wait to go back!!! Thank you!!

Christmas Vacation

It was great we absolutely loved the cabin. It was exactly what we were looking for. We were so glad it was decorated for Christmas. We made some great memories. The only down fall was the parking it was very tight, and the main floor heating was not working.

Great Cabin

Family get together went great! A little difficult following GPS as all signal lost as we left Hwy 23/441. Suggest that visitors get directions before heading on to 1 lane roads. (They don't go away when signal is lost!That being said, this was a wonderful place to stay. All family members thoroughly enjoyed the trip!

Great family gathering place!

Our family gathered here to spend time together before everyone went back to school, work, etc. What a fun and peaceful place to be! With hiking nearby and on site amenties—fire pit, well-equipped kitchen, hot tub, pool table, and games, there was something for every. When we had a few glitches, the property manager was quick with replies. We would like to return!
