It has such an amazing view the inside of the house is so large you could get lost inside. Our favorite thing to do at this property was to sit in the sunroom to eat our meals while enjoying the view. The host was great with communication.

It has everything you need, is very clean and has comfortable beds. Our host was exceptional in that he made sure we had what we needed. We rented it for four weeks and had our family and friends come be with us. Nobody had any complaints. ##### HENRY L. Stayed 28 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Theresa D.

The road up was fun, you know you're in the mountains. We had a power outage while there and Evan was right there to check it out. Nice folks to deal with, real pros. To sum it up, if you want a quiet, lovely mountain getaway, this is close to perfect. Suggest you try to arrive during the daylight hours, you'll see what I mean, when you park it.

This house has so many interesting places and quiet spaces, the boys kept finding new things to show us. The kitchen is well equipped and has plenty of storage. The bedrooms all have a space for “living” as well as sleeping. The views are remarkable. Everyone fought over the sofa in the sunroom and we did a puzzle on the table in there. There is a big tv for watching as well as games to play in the basement. We all loved the house. ##### Tricia V. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stacy S. Aug 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### NC Beauty Stayed with my family of 5 (3 kids between ages 5-16). House was very clean and very spacious with beautiful views from the deck and one of the bedrooms! Communication with the owner Adam was absolutely above and beyond! We had no problems during our stay. Easy check in and check out. Like some other reviews mention, the road to the house is very narrow, only meant for one vehicle at a time with a few pull offs, and is quite steep leading up to the driveway of the house. Home is in a quiet, private area. There is another rental house 50 feet away but no one was there while we were there. It would be a perfect opportunity to rent with another family or a large reunion. I took a star off of the accuracy listing because the pictures show a landscaped property and gazebo but the property was overgrown, needed some repairs (not the house), and getting to the gazebo was inconvenient and had too many hornets to sit down and enjoy. It's in the mountains so I understand there will be bugs and wildlife and plants thrive there. The property has TONS of potential, it was a bit disappointing that we couldn't enjoy the outdoor space a little more than we thought based on the pictures in the listing. We would definitely go back and stay there again though! If you want a mountain getaway, this place delivers! ##### Stacy S. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melanie V.

The views from the balconies are awesome and the house has a large kitchen + living room for a large group to hang out and socialize. The host was very helpful and forthcoming, provided detailed checkin instructions. The only downside is the access road which is a bit steep and could get challenging in extreme weather situations. ##### Shakeel R.

The area is just beautiful, with majestic scenery. We hiked and explored all week. Adam our host was extremely helpful and very resourceful. We had no issues during our stay. I will say I don’t recommend arriving in full dark. Driving up the mountain with only headlights was a little challenging. But after the first time, we managed it well. We would definitely stay again. ##### Stacie H. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda T. Oct 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### What a view! We stayed at this wonderful home last week and had a fantastic stay! Adam, the owner, was an absolute gem of a host. The home is exactly as pictured and the grounds were just beautiful. The split upstairs downstairs layout of the house was perfect for our teenagers to have their own space. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need to cook a meal. As stated in a previous review, the driveway/road up to the house is a little intimidating at first, but I promise it is worth it once you stand on the balcony and see the view from upstairs! We would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking to stay in the Franklin area. ##### Amanda T. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2021 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Michael H. Sep 10, 2018 #### Not as advertised This home was not as advertised. The check in process should be more hands off from the owner as he walked me through the house and counted the amount of people i had. The owner also offered me pillows and sheets that were on the floor in the clothset. The downstairs area with bedrooms was not completed and looked as if it was under construction as the carpet was not completed, the paint was not impressive. The wrap around porch had no lighting and the cushions to the chairs outside were filthy. For the money spent for two nights you could easily find something a lot better in the area. I hate leaving bad reviews, but this place should not have been up for rent. ##### Michael H. From a partner site ### 6/10 Okay #### Rebecca Jul 6, 2023 #### Nice home, Roads Not so Great The views this house had were just outstanding! Every morning we would have coffee on the deck, and it was just amazing. I guess with good views come winding roads. The road is pretty steep getting to the home, although it is in good condition. Prepare for a one lane unpaved road that is fairly curvy. We were traveling in a large van and just prayed we didn't meet another vehicle and have to back down the road until we reached a passable place. I thank my lucky stars we weren't pulling a trailer. One of the best things about this home was owner contact, providing directions, access code and general hospitality. It's a nice home. It was clean, comfortable and attractive. If we had been traveling in a small car, I would have been much happier. Supplies such as towels, washcloths, detergent, dishwasher pods, dryer sheets, kitchen supplies -- baggies, etc. are very limited compared to other places we've stayed. Appreciated the coffee filters, since most stays currently use k-cups these days. Overall a very nice place, would probably be four or five stars if it included a warning about the road, and a little more generosity considering supplies needed for several people staying five nights. ##### Rebecca Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peggy W. Jul 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Breathtaking Views and Amazing Family Fun Time Adam, our host, reached out before our 4 night stay began. He was so cordial and welcoming and our 6 family members couldn't wait to stay in his home and for the adventures to begin. When we arrived, the house was just beautiful and we all got settled and picked out our bedrooms from a choice of 4\. The entire house was thoughtfuly decorated and the views from the wrap around deck and my granddaughter 's deck were scenes only an artist could paint. We went to dinner near downtown Franklin and ate Mexican food at Margaritas. Very nice place with a lot of food aerved. We got back to the house and played ping pong in the rec. room. What fun playing singles and as teams. This family gathering was ages 17 to 71 so we as grandparents had a blast. The next two days, with recommendations from Adam our host, was exploring downtown Franklin and checking out Dry Falls Waterfalls. Downtown had amazing museums, shops, eateries, flowers everywhere and people relaxing on park benches. A typical Hallmark movie. Such charm and friendliness. The Brooklyn Bagles was delicious. The drive to Dry Falls Waterfalls scaredme because the heights but the scenic route was so. Gorgeous. Ive never seem wayerfalls a d they were. I d blowing and you could walk behond them and take pictires. Just amaxing the creations od this earth. ##### Peggy W. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Rebecca H. Jun 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Comfy house on narrow gravel road Unbeatable views, comfortable home. It was a big plus that all rooms had double beds because some homes we rent have twin beds for children. The road getting to the property isn't all that suitable for larger vehicles, but should be fine for most. It's narrow, gravel, but was maintained. Home is not generously appointed with supplies such as laundry detergent, dish detergent, etc. Even towels are somewhat limited. Checkout instructions said all dishes must be put away, which seems a bit obsessive given the high cleaning fees. Most homes we stay at the instructions say -- put all dishes in dishwasher and please turn it on prior to leaving, we will do the rest. Helpful when pressed for time checking out. Having a grill was nice, and the deck is gorgeous! All pluses. I can see where this house would be perfect for large family gatherings because of it's perfect layout and kitchen and dining areas. You could easily have large family holiday without crowding. There's lots of dining space available! We cooked every night of our stay and loved eating outside as well as at the bar in the kitchen. It would be even better if there were just a few storage bowls with lids available for leftovers, but we found some seran wrap. Beds were comfortable and rooms spacious. Property owner was very accommodating and helpful. The easiest check in we've ever had. He let us know he would be available for anything we needed. A+ there. ##### Rebecca H.
