Cabin had everything we needed! Spent a day in Bryson City and another in Highlands- was an easy drive to both.

It was a lovely property. It was very clean and well stocked with all that one would need. We had our family Thanksgiving meal there. We had so much fun and were cozy and warm as it was very cold in the mornings and at night, but we were very warm and snug inside during that time. The days warmed up and we enjoyed sitting on the main floor back deck and enjoying the amazing scenery of the Smoky Mountains. We would definitely stay there again! The road is a bit rough to get there and if there is ice and snow there would definitely need to be caution taken to drive up. The driveway is steep, but not bad. The road leading to the driveway is very bad and would be in bad weather. We had an SUV with 4 wheel drive which we did not need as there was no ice and snow during our stay, but it would be difficult to navigate even with our vehicle in ice and snow. All in all, a wonderful place to stay! We highly and enthusiastically recommend!!!

Our family of six (with four littles) fell in love with this cabin and all it offered! Our favorite aspects of the rental was the kid-friendliness of the space (there was a stash of toys my kids thought were such fun!), the breathtaking views from the back porch as we ate meals and relaxed at the end of the day, and the location was away from the hustle and bustle but a fun 30-ish minute drive to great hiking trails! The price was a steal for all this cabin offered! So many sleeping arrangement possibilities, but my kids preferred staying in the loft room with the trundle bed. We cooked every meal on-site with more than enough utensils, pots, pans, etc. They even had kids plates, bowls, cups and cutlery…Such a thoughtful addition to the cabin! Check-in/out was a breeze! My husband and I have already said this is a must return rental!!

Cabin was nice. Could use new beds and couches. Property was okay but quite a drive to anything including grocery store.

Response from owner: "Hi Sherri,
All the beds are new! The property description clearly states that "DOWNTOWN FRANKLIN (9.5 miles/~15 minutes)" Sorry if it was inconvenient for you. Thanks for the feedback!"
Great cabin to stay in. Has everything you need. The views from the porch are great
