It was cozy! Great view. Just enough for a small family.
Let me start by saying I don’t like taking the time to leave reviews; but, I always read reviews. I will keep this short- it’s worth the drive up. The road most of they way up was scary to me the first time; we arrived right at dark. After the second time up, it really wasn’t bad. I backed up the driveway after the first night and it was much easier to leave. The house is beautiful and was super clean! The floor was clean, the kitchen was clean, bedrooms were clean, bathrooms were clean, and living room was clean. The couch is brand new, the sheets felt wonderful, the towels smelled nice and clean, there was full hand-soap in the bathrooms, a nice washer and dryer, dish soap, toilet paper, paper towels and all the kitchen items you’d need. I loved that I didn’t have to pack towels and linens. Look, there are areas of imperfection if you want to nitpick, but this house is beautiful and very well kept!!! The pictures really don’t do this property justice and the view is so stunning. It’s also very well situated between some great towns to visit. Me, my husband and our 3 daughters (5, 10, and 20) all had a great stay and can’t wait to come back!
We had the best time at this cabin. It is big enough for a good 10 people if you bring your own air mattresses! The cabin has every thing you need, kitchen is fully equipped, just bring your food! It’s a 3 level cabin with one bedroom and bathroom on the first floor. The 2nd floor has a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living room with TV and nice size dining area! There’s a spare room with a couch. It’s set up like a little den, with a nice size closet! Go up one more set of stairs for the 3rd bedroom. There’s a boom box with CD player and nice speakers. A desk, queen bed and a closet. It’s a roomy place that makes for a perfect getaway on top of a mountain! It’s decorated nicely and very clean! I can’t imagine anyone being disappointed with this gem! Going into town in Franklin is very quaint and the people are friendly. Whether you’re shopping or eating… plenty of both! The surrounding towns have shopping and eats as well! Our host Mary was so kind and very accommodating! You won’t be disappointed!!!
We enjoyed our stay here for the Franklin gem show. I don’t think the pics can capture the beauty of the view of the mountains from the porch. Morning coffee on the porch, watching the fog roll over the mountains was our favorite part of the stay. Cute back yard area and felt private. The house is cozy and comfy and perfect for us, my mom and two friends. The gravel road to the house is a bit steep in places and may give some pause, but I had no issues with it. It was freshly graded and I just took it slow and easy! I did wonder what would happen if I encountered another car coming the opposite direction, but thankfully that never happened!
Nice family weekend getaway! We enjoyed our stay in Franklin! Will hopefully come back soon!
WE LOVED THE HOUSE SO MUCH WE STAYED 16 DAYS, BIG HOUSE LOTS OF ROOM,BIG DECK WITH AWESOME VIEWS FOREVER,THE OWNER MARY WAS VERY NICE TO US AND WILL STAY AGAIN, THANK YOU.
Great overall property. Property Manager was quick to respond to any questions that we had. Would definetly recommend and look forward to our next stay.
This house is BEAUTIFULLY decorated - the view is awesome! Everything that we needed to cook and grill was there. It is comfortable-spacious-very clean. I would highly recommend this rental.
We had a wonderful time visiting the cabin. It was quiet and peaceful. The birds were amazing and the trees were beginning to bud...in a couple weeks it will be breathtaking! Overall very nice week!
The view is very nice but a little difficult to navigate to. The heat was not on when we arrived and it was much later than we expected due to a traffic accident so it was very cold. It warmed up pretty quickly but due to heating with propane it was very difficult to regulate and was never very comfortable. Its a pretty place and the host was very nice but i dont think i would stay again.
