Our New Favorite
This is by far the best VRBO stay my husband and I have ever experienced. The hosts, Mike & Sam, went above and beyond and even greeted us upon our arrival to see if we had any questions. The cabin is beautiful, well-maintained, and nestled alongside a serene creek. When we walked into cabin, there was a handwritten note, brownies, and a bottle of wine. The property was fully equipped with anything we could have needed or wanted for our stay, and immaculately clean. 10/10. The property is desirably located between Franklin and Highlands, and is nearby to numerous hiking spots, grocery stores, etc. We will be back! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Inside the home there is quality everywhere; the furnishings in the home and even the porch, the art, the towels, sheets and even the rugs!! The attention to detail is everywhere you look. We truly enjoyed our stay! Oh and yes Tucker; Tucker is so handsome and will steal your heart. Go ahead and book this home today, you will not be disappointed!! The Phillips

The owners of this property have made it such an amazing place. This was our second stay at the property and for good reason. The house is always clean, neat, and feels like home. It is tucked away in the shadow of the mountains. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of life, this is the place to come. So, stop reading this review and book a stay right now. You will be glad you did.

Beautiful cottage in lovely mountain setting
The Guest House is a gem. It is so cozy, clean, well stocked kitchen, and beautifully decorated. It’s hard to leave the front porch. Sam, Mike and Tucker are wonderful hosts. Thank you for the delicious blueberry muffins and wine. Look forward to returning in the spring!

Perfection!
I stayed 4 nights with my parents and my dog. We had a wonderful time. The house is cozy and the property is amazing. We had everything we needed. It’s close to town and to visiting other towns like Highlands and Cashiers. We really enjoyed meeting Sam, Mike and of course Tucker. Hope to visit again next year!
