About this property

Wild Bills Riverfront Escape - Garden hot tub

  • Beautiful 2 bedroom/ 2 bath Riverfront Cabin with Garden type hot tub in Master Bedroom. Priceless Huge Covered Porch with gas grill overlooking the little Tennessee River in Franklin N.C. Excellent High-Speed Internet. Comfy King Beds. Loaded Full Kitchen. Living area has 2 plush leather recliners and a beautiful new leather type couch to match. Great spot to relax after some fishing or gem mining. Beautiful River views from every angle. Fire pit for night fires and star watching. Kayaks are available to rent. Wild Bills is in a great location to enjoy Franklin and the surrounding Smoky Mountain Area. Easy access for any vehicle. Cabin has Central Heat and Air/ Ceiling fans throughout. Washer/ Dryer. This cabin is a dream cabin. The location is semi- private, not remote. Where can you find a porch this big overlooking the beautiful Little Tennessee River in the Mountains? and did I mention Master Suite jetted garden Tub?? The Covered porch will be such a highlight. You can view this amazing river change with the seasons. The Mountains are calling you.

Watch the river from the porch!

Very cute and cozy cabin right in the river. The porch, overlooking, the river is fabulous! It’s not “secluded”, as the cabin is just off the road, but when you are on the porch, you don’t even notice the road……. just the beautiful river and mountains.

The weekend with our friends was wonderful. Cabin was everything and then some. Views from porch was amazing. Franklin and Bryson City was close but not too close. We will definitely be returning.

Relaxing Porch Time

My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our anniversary. We really enjoyed it. The cabin was clean and set up well. We loved the front deck and having access to the Little Tennessee River. Occasionally, we did hear a good bit of traffic noise during certain times of the day. But, overall, it is a great get-a-way cabin for a couple or small family.

Relaxing vacay

Loved the location, very quiet and peaceful. Loved sitting on the porch most of all. Very clean and well stocked kitchen. Loved being here!!! Needs more light on the porch we spent a lot of time out there playing cards and was a little hard to see. The only drawback we had. Will probably book again for next year.

Wild Bill's

Had a great time fishing, floating, and kayaking down the river. Water access was difficult from the cabin, but Kevin, the full time resident next door allowed us to use their stairs and we were able to put our kayak in and take it out there. The view of the river from the large covered deck was beautiful and was the perfect start and end to each day. We enjoyed morning coffee and ate several meals out there. All in all, Wild Bill's cabin was great, and we look forward to returning!

Family trip in nature

The porch is awesome. Played games at the outside table. Ate every meal rain or shine outside. The view overlooks the river. The fire pit is on the river. The roadway (Woodchuck Ln) is deceiving. It is a single lane gravel path that falls off the main road. The houses are on one side, the gravel, and then the river is on the opposite side. Cleanliness was middle of the road for Vrbo stays. Warning: Wi-Fi was very slow and almost nonexistent. Cellular service is null. We picked it to limit the teenagers time on screens. It is just “mountain” internet. Not the hosts fault. You cannot watch a movie and surf at the same time. Cozy cabin with a view.
