Owner was super accommodating to us and our service dog. Beautiful cabin away for the crowds but close to everything you need. The fall leaves were falling and someone came by and even blew off the porches and fire pit areas.
Cabin was very nice, great area close to all we cared to do. Drank our coffee on the balcony/deck each morning. We had a great time and really enjoyed the weather.
The cabin was lovely, it had everything you would need. My friend and I mostly ate out and found Franklin full of good place to eat. The leaves were beautiful to see!
We love the homey and warm vibe of this home. This was our second stay here. Highly recommend it for anyones get away in the mountains. Our family visiting from the west coast loved it!
Very nice cabin. Had everything we needed and close to Franklin and everything we wanted to do.
This is a quiet cozy little cabin. Smooth check in and out process. The cabin was very clean. We liked the fact that it was close to main roads for the purpose of motorcycling. Would stay again if in area.
We both had such a nice, relaxing time... I even did a short YouTube Video describing our stay here while using the front porch swing! You can view by simply searching Steve Guthrie Feeling Groovy in the YouTube Search bar. Thanks again for an excellent stay!
Easy in and out rental. Everything worked great and we were never cold. The heat was amazing...
We enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It is nicely decorated, and had amenities that we enjoyed. The large front porch is wonderful, and so is the fire pit area. Very homey!
Whispering Pines Retreat was perfect. My daughter met me and we had a great week catching up, exploring the area and binging Netflix. The house was just as advertised, with everything we needed to enjoy our stay.
The property was very nice. We enjoyed our stay . Would come again sometime.
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The cabin was clean, cozy, and comfortable. Extra touches (tree, lights, etc...) were appreciated for the Holidays. The large deck and fire pit area were extremely nice too. Finally, the owner was very responsive as we readied ourselves for a couple of days with wind chills in the minus teens.
This was a great cabin for our small family of four! It was very clean, and had everything that we needed! We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit with comfortable seating around it, as well as spending time around the gas fireplace indoors while relaxing there. Highly recommend this place! Great location near Clayton, Highlands and Cashiers!
We enjoyed the 10 days we spent in Franklin. The cabin was comfortable. Victoria was helpful with the only big problem we had with the heat as when we arrived it was about 28 degrees. The road in front if the cabin is quiet most of the time. Wildlife all over the area near the cabin. We would stay there again. Thank you for being great hosts and making our stay memorable.
This property was perfect for us! We felt right at home as soon as we arrived! We loved the fire pit, and grill. The inside was super cozy with extra blankets for the couch and plenty of pillows for snuggling. It is also in a good location for all the things we like to do in Franklin/Highlands/Cashiers NC. Thank you so much!
Very clean , nice cabin. Enjoyed the porch . Well stocked kitchen. Never met owner, but heard they are very nice. Quiet secluded spot.
Whispering Pines Retreat was a quiet and peaceful stay. The cabin was clean and fully stocked for cooking, laundry and extra care items. The beds were beyond comfy and waking up to coffee on the porch was a great way to start the day. My family got to enjoy nature and be with-in minutes drive to town and other activities. The extra touches made it feel extra special. Thank you for hosting our family.
We really enjoyed our stay! The cabin was exactly as described and had all of the necessities. We loved the porch and outdoor area. It was the perfect place for some family time and we also enjoyed whitewater rafting and golf nearby.
Our planned accomodations fell through the afternoon before we left on vacation to the Smokies. Thankfully, Victoria had room for our last minute booking and had the cabin all ready. It was spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable for our stay, comfy couch and love seat, breakfast bar but no table. Located just a short drive to 441 then and only a few minutes south of Franklin, which has everything you might need. The road in front of the cabin is a quiet side road with only a few cars passing by. This is a small cabin, I would not recommend it for a larger family, the bathroom is a bit small and the kitchen is a bit tight if you were trying to cook a big meal for family. My son and I stayed here and had a wonderful time, peaceful breakfast on the porch listening to wild birds each morning (June) and a fire in the fire ring at night. We drove only 40 minutes to Bryson City and Cherokee to access the national park and went rafting and tubing in those areas.
I stayed 9 days in this Gorgeous Cabin! Victoria my host was always available in case I needed her. Everything and I mean Everything was perfect for our stay. My son who lives In Tennessee came to visit and we got to use the Wonderful fire pit. House was spotless and they even had everything we needed to prepare out meals. I adored the front porch and spent most of our time just enjoying nature. I highly recommend this rental to ALL! It’s Priceless!! Thank You Victoria
Great place to get away and enjoy the quiet life. Cabin is clean, cozy and a convenient distance to town. Everything you would want in a vacation getaway cabin!
We moved from west coast to east coast and it was so nice to have a homey and comfortable place to land until we got settled
