    This is a charming cabin. There is a porch that would be nice in warmer weather. A fire pit that we didn't use but was nice. Out trip was quick to visit family in Franklin. The fireplace was so cozy with the freezing temps outside and everything we needed was available.

    We enjoyed the coziness of the cabin. This was a car trip and the cabin was convenient to some great roads to drive our Miata. In the evenings we enjoyed sitting around the fire pit watching the deer feed

    We loved our stay at whispering pines. Loved the quietness of the area, the fire pit, the back porch, and the ability to take our Golden fur child. I could not have asked for any better. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the area and are looking forward to returning in the future.

    We had a fantastic stay over Thanksgiving. This is the most well stocked cabin we’ve ever stayed in. The location is convenient to lots of places and there’s lots to do. Victoria was very friendly and helpful and quick to respond. We hope to be back in the summer. Thanks so much!
