We felt like we were out in the woods all by ourselves yet only a 2 minute walk to the river/beach. The fire pit and grill are located perfectly so you can grill while have a nice fire going. The cottage was very bright peaceful, I really loved the knotty Pine. We also had great views of the Franklin dam from the balcony. Cant wait to come back again, relax enjoy nature and hopefully catch the big bass 8 had hooked but lost. ![Absolutely amazing picture from the private beach.

We brought our two dogs and even that was a great accommodation! Our host John was super friendly and just one call away!

On our first day we had issues with heat (both hot water and heating) but John was more than accommodating and had us shifted to another cottage immediately and he in fact bought us lunch for the inconvenience (thank you John!). Our second day of stay was perfect without issues. They have a private beach with boats which you can use. I would recommend booking with them directly. ##### Arihant D.

We enjoyed our 2 night mini break at the Treehouse at Pemi Shore Cottages. The cabin was delightful and the beds were very comfortable. Our cabin sits up high so it was like being in a tree house. The outdoor lighting at night was very cute! Our host John made sure we got settled in and was available if we needed him. This was our first overnight for our 2 year old puppy and he had a great time. He went swimming in the river on the property's private beach area and had a grand time. Thanks so much! ##### Rachel K. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Robyn G. Jul 17, 2024 Disliked: Location #### Rustic Cottage is Accurate Negatives: Overall the cottage was pretty much as advertised as far as rustic and dated. Unfortunately, the overall cleanliness left much to be desired. Although, the owners do not charge a cleaning fee so that is the offset. The cottage smelled like wet dog and the sliding door had wet dog nose prints all over it (they do advertise as pet friendly so it was to be somewhat expected).The bathroom smelled strongly like urine all around the toilet area. The shower was too small for my 6'4" and 6'6" husband and son, which is typically a problem anyway. Many of the stairs leading to the water were broken so it was a treacherous walk down. Positive: The beds were surprisingly comfortable. The owners were friendly at check in. The water was lovely to swim in. With one AC and the ceiling fans on it was comfortable to be in the cabin as every day we were there was above 90 degrees. Unfortunately, we would not stay here again and left a day early. ##### Robyn G. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachel T.
