"Falling Water" Perfect for families!

Middle Creek is known for its pocket water and plunge pools in the creek with opportunities for catching Brook, Brown and Rainbow trout.

This house is like getting two for the price of one. The upper unit is a open concept with beautiful wooden floors, 2 bedrooms, large bathroom, sunroom, kitchen and a living room with a gas fireplace and a queen size sleeper couch.

The lower unit has a beautiful sunroom along with a fully updated kitchen, large bedroom and bathroom. The living area also has Queen size sleeper couch and gas fireplace. The cooling and heating is a mini split system and is separate from the upper unit .
Both units have exits to the multiple decks and sitting areas.
All of this and on a paved road with ample parking along with the creek frontage this is a hard combination to find.

We are located 9 miles from Franklin, NC and 11 miles from Clayton, GA so there is a choice of many restaurants and different things to do.

We live in a rural area without garbage pickup and an abundance amount of wildlife that will get into the trash. Please keep the trash inside in the garbage bins provided. You can take the garbage to the recycling center when you leave or we can for a fee of $25.

Cell phone reception will either be spotty or not work at all. Internet is provided so you can use your VOIP service offered on most phones(Voice over internet protocol). or we do have a landline phone.

Clean and comfy

The house was immaculately clean and beds and sofas were comfortable. Location by the river was fabulous. Kids enjoyed fishing and tubing. The kitchen had everything we needed. One thing to note, to get to the upstairs master you have to either walk through the room with 2 twin beds or the shared bathroom. We are already planning our next trip.

Wonderful Creekside retreat

This house had all the important elements for our annual friends getaway: direct creekside access, sounds of a rushing creek, private outdoor space that is covered and uncovered, lots of tables for eating and playing games and great kitchen and living room areas. Bonus to have the extra kitchen in basement and the two AC units to please everyone. Only negative was that the basement did have some "basement-y" odors, but everything was very clean. We had a wonderful trip and spent lots of time in the creek and on the decks. This is the first time ever that my group has said they want to come back to the same VRBO location again in future years!

Mountain Reverie

The access to the property was actually excellent given its mountainous area. The house was clean, well decorated and roomy! Sounds of the rushing water was deeply relaxing. It's an older house with unique features. Access to Franklin and Clayton was easy. Overall, a delightful place to escape city life.

Incredible stay!

My husband and I had the opportunity to stay at Falling Waters for our long weekend and we had the best time! The house is so relaxing and is RIGHT over the beautiful creek. We loved listening to the sound of the water flowing by the house and were lucky enough to be able to bring our pups along who absolutely loved their time in the mountains! My husband loved the open living space which was perfect for cooking a great steak and watching football and we really enjoyed all of the great deck space at the home by the water.

Family Weekend

This place is wonderful! Very interesting house and the location right on the creek's edge is peaceful and just beautiful. The house itself was well supplied with everything we might need and beautifully decorated. My family had so much fun and we all hope to make a return visit sometime in the future. Middle Creek is a special place to me because my father grew up a couple of curves up the road. Now my own family has memories there too. Thank you for an awesome weekend!

Will definitely return

This home is fantastic! Plenty of room inside & out, comfy beds, lovely view, and listening to the creek was calming & restorative. Definitely felt like a hard me a at from home. We enjoyed making s'mores in the gazebo and walking the neighborhood. Communication with the owner was excellent. Very well stocked kitchen. Book now, you'll have a great stay!

Great Stay!

Great house on a beautiful creek. Upstairs was very nicely appointed and well stocked. This house would be perfect for a multi-family trip. It's basically two separate units, each with a kitchen, living room, beds, etc. Owner very responsive. We didn't have a need for the downstairs accommodations, which is good because the air quality is not good. Must have gotten wet at some point. Fix that and this house is a specialty show stopper!

Beautiful Location

We enjoyed our long weekend at Falling Waters. This was a great house for a larger family gathering. It is big enough to be together but has many fun unique sitting areas to explore for some time to escape. It was so peacful to just sit on the deck and listen to the river. This was a beautiful time of the year since the leaves were changing. The house is well stocked, clean and easily accessible. Tim was very responsive from the booking process all the way through checking out. Would definetly consider staying again.

Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful time. The house is large and rambling and fabulous. Not pretentious, just comfy and cozy and the sound of that water…breathtaking!! Super grateful to the owner. I had accidentally booked starting a day later than I showed up and he let us in a day early. (Bless him!) super responsive and kind. 10/10 recommend. We hope to be back!

Wonderful House

This was such an amazing home for my family of 7. The pictures online didn't do it justice. The beds were all very comfortable. The art and decorations around the house were so nice. Our 5 teenagers loved all the nooks and places to hang out in. The area was close to so many hiking trails and mountain activities. The stream was so beautiful and I could sit out side listening to it all day. Tim was very responsive and great to deal with. We will for sure book again.
