The Mountain Club Hotels, Sapphire

"Ashley and her staff were fantastic. They went above and beyond to help me get my car moving when i got stuck in the snow going into the parking lot. My only isue was that the drive and lot were not plowed. However that was not on them. "

"Everything was fine"

"Everything was good."

"Friendly staff. "

"The unit was very clean and comfortable. The particular one we stayed in had a balcony but due to the weather we didn't go out on it; the view was just "so so" - it just looked into the woods and also down the hill we could see a maintenance building. The kitchen was stocked and although we didn't cook, we felt we could have easily prepared meals."

"Wife and I wanted to get away for a few days in the mountains for some fresh air and cooler weather. We brought our two dogs with us (very dog friendly here) and they loved running around and were very comfortable inside with plenty of room for their crates. We found this cozy cabin in Franklin and glad we did. We loved the history of the place provided by the owners, as well as all the amenities...kitchen well stocked, entertainment, linens fresh and clean, fireplace with plenty of firewood provided, lovely views and a nice, clean hot tub overlooking those beautiful views.The drive up is a bit adventurous, I believe the cabin is about 4,000 ft up. We had a rear wheel, full sized F150 which at some points felt a bit large, but having it in1st gear on the gravel parts of the road we did just fine. I would say that a crossover or mid-sized SUV with all wheel drive would be perfect. We didn't travel up or down in the dark but once we made the trip once we probably would had felt okay since the weather was fine. At night in rain or snow...may have been a bit hesitant though.Overall, the cabin is very cozy and and in very nice shape for an older property and we highly recommend it for those wanting to just get away for a few days to relax, go on walks, antiquing, spending time downtown. Only critique would be to get better Wi-Fi (very slow) but there's good cellular there and satellite TV provided so it wasn't really a factor for us."

"Magnificent"

"Situated in the hills and d see signed by one of Frank Lloyd Wright's students this is an ideal getaway for a weekend. The Oak restaurant is one of the best in the area."
