If it's river frontage you want - you've found it! You can literally drop a line in and fish while standing on the deck. The views up and down the river are tremendous and onsite you'll find tubes for a lazy afternoon float down the river.
This cozy two-bedroom cottage is perfect for 2-4 guests. There's a nice woodstove for chilly mornings and evenings, Internet (wireless) and Satellite TV.
Well located between Highlands and Franklin so a quick jaunt up or down the mountain is easy and direct.

    Our stay at Cindy's Island was fantastic! Very clean and comfortable. Love the outdoor fire pit area and being right on the river! Highly recommend!

    We enjoyed our weekend stay at the cabin! It was relaxing and the S’more’s were such a nice gesture.

    We had a great stay! Place was clean and had all the amenities that we needed. Being right on the water was appealing to the eye and hearing the sound of the water going over the rocks brought peacefulness. We will stay here again. Also, Franklin is a great town! One of our now favorites!

    Cindy’s Island was the perfect setting for a quiet getaway to celebrate being married for 40 years to my college sweetheart. The setting could not have been more perfect. The cabin was well furnished and very clean. We greatly appreciated the easy check-in check-out process. The owner made it so easy and stress free. The temperature was very hot outside, but the cabin was very cool. The power went out around 2:30 am on our last day, but was unrelated to the cabin; the whole area experienced a power outage. It made it difficult getting out on time as we had no power or water until 9:00. We were able to meet the 10:00 departure within 15 minutes, but were not charged. The owner was accommodating. If you are looking for a beautiful outdoor setting in the mountains close to town, but away from the hustle and bustle of the world this is your place.

    Cindy's Island was a cute place - the porches and outside sitting areas were very relaxing. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen/bathrooms were updated. The house was exceptionally clean but is an older home with some tile ceilings and a creaky/leaning floor. There was a lot of road noise because of where it is located which took a little away from the spot being perfect. Also, it is a little tricky pulling out of the driveway onto the busy road. Overall, it is in a good location for what we were looking for which was checking out waterfalls in the area.

    A little slice of heaven. The river is amazing; the home is immaculate and very well equipped. Sara, our hostess, was unbelievably prompt and helpful. We rate it 10 stars out of 10 begrudgingly only because we don't want to add to competitiion for our return visit(s)!

    This property is great! Beautiful home with everything you and more. The extras made us feel so welcome, the perfect home away from home. The sound of the water was so peaceful and relaxing. My husband enjoyed fishing both in the water and off the deck. I can't say enough about this lovely home.

    All communication was quick and informative. Check in was simple. The home was exactly as described. Everything was clean and well kept. Only downside, but if you don’t live in country it probably would not be an issue, but property is close to road and you will hear traffic at all times. Again if you are used to hearing traffic it will not be an issue but we live on a farm and not used to traffic. Other than that the home is located in a great area to drive and hike to many different waterfalls. We enjoyed our stay.

    We loved the house, the amenities and the view was phenomenal ... the level and flow of the river was perfect for flyfishing as the water was so clear you could see the fish swimming by teasing you to try and hook them. The location of the house was perfect for venturing out to visit the towns of Franklin and Highlands, the Blue Ridge Parkway and most anywhere else that is a fun place to check out! Cindy's Island would be a PERFECT mountain getaway EXCEPT for finding and maneuvering the driveway and the proximity of the busy road and the noise from the vehicles speeding by! The quiet of the lack of traffic is quite noticeable when sitting outside by the firepit which we did as much as possible!
