Great, quiet, out of the way cabin. Well appointed with wverything you need to stay as long as you like. We really enjoyed our stay. Be aware that it is 20 minutes to the nearest grocery so bring your food. Also, the road to Nantahala lake is very curvy and the 10 mile drive will take 45 minutes but is worth the drive.

Very nice

Having grown up in Franklin, I really enjoyed this house. It was clean, plenty of towels, good beds, etc. I really enjoyed the front porch. The woods are beautiful. I would not advise driving up the driveway with ice without proper gear. If you get really hot in your sleep, the upstairs bedroom runs hot, but the two fans in the house help so much. The cleaning when you leave is also easy.

Great little house in the woods/could be cleaner.

We enjoyed the location (in the woods, but, close to town) and the comfortable layout and the little front porch with swing and rockers.

My wife grew up just a stone's throw from this property. We rented as a supplemental place to stay during a family holiday visit. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, no issues or complaints. Would not hesitate to rent again!

Mountain Getaway

We love this cabin! It's the perfect place to access all the fun and adventure in this area: hiking, fishing, scenic drives, waterfalls, etc. It's close to great towns with shopping and restaurants. And there's nothing better than relaxing on the porch to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or afternoon drink while listening to nature at your doorstep.

Perfect solitude

The house was cozy and comfortable. It is only 10 minutes from our friends antique store Nestfeathers. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was accomodating and the deck was where we hung out! Very peaceful. We would consider staying again when in the area!

Quick Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay. The place was very clean and easy and Vacasa was easy to work with. We probably would have liked the house more in the woods. You still are able to see the neighbors this is why I took off one star, but that did not stop us from enjoying the outdoors, or the firepit. The inside furnishings were very comfortable. There is also a great hike just down the road. I overall really liked this place.

Bluebeary bungalow

Very beautiful setting and secluded. House had a few quirks, like the lower bathroom would not lock. Also we found a cooking utensil in the drawer that wasn't clean. The beds were decent. Toilet paper was junk, bring your own. it was so thin it takes half the roll to clean up. All in all home was nice place to get together with family.

Quiet getaway

Very nice and very private. We plan on staying there again. The close encounter with a black bear getting into the trash cans was a great experience. We manage to capture it on video. The bear took one of the trash cans away but we recovered it the next day. It was such a great experience we will always talk about.

Mountain cabin

Buy travel insurance if you book this cabin. The property management would not allow us to cancel/reschedule after Hurricane Helene swept through this area, as the storm hit less than 30 days from our arrival. Fortunately power had been restored and authorities began allowing non - residents back in before our trip. Franklin was spared, but we were unable to visit other planned area. Bring your own cards/games as all in the cabin were missing pieces. That said, it was a well appointed cabin.

Peaceful and Relaxing

Our stay at this cabin was excellent. The location of the property is close to downtown Franklin and neighboring towns. The main purpose of our trip was to get away and find peace and quiet and it was acheived. The cabin met all needs. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had all the necessary cooking supplies. Only complaint was we were suppose to check in at 4pm and did not get to check in until 7pm due to housekeeping arriving late. We will definitely rent this cabin in the future.
