My wife grew up just a stone's throw from this property. We rented as a supplemental place to stay during a family holiday visit. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, no issues or complaints. Would not hesitate to rent again!
We found the cabin to be very cute with plenty of room for four adults. It was also well stocked and we found everything we needed for the meals we cooked. The location of the cabin was nice as well… close, but not too close, to town. I would not recommend the pull-out couch in the loft for sleeping arrangements for an adult as it was not very comfortable to sleep on. However, it would probably be fine for children. The rental company was very easy to work with and everything from checking-in to checking-out was pretty straightforward. Overall, no complaints and would probably stay again.
Cabin was better than expected. Well appointed with everything you need. More than enough room for our group of 5. Wish our stay was longer. Very easy access to Franklin
Cute cabin and great location
My family made this reservation to attend my niece’s wedding. On the morning of the wedding, my daughter came to me and said her dog had found rodent bait. She and her fiancé were unable to attend the wedding since they had to rush the dog to an emergency veterinary clinic. The vet bill and follow-up visits total $1161.09 so far. She has one more follow-up visit to be sure no poison remains in her body. I contacted Vacasa, the property management company, numerous times on the phone, via texts, and through VRBO messaging. They told me the dog owner was responsible for the vet bill. The property is advertised as pet friendly. I asked them if there was any more rodent bait in the house and they said they did not know. I asked them what if a child had found the bait? No response. I sent the owner certified mail on 28 Oct 2023 (I obtained his name and address from the Macon County Tax Department) documenting this problem. This envelope was returned to me today (14 Nov 2023) as undeliverable. We encountered a couple more problems with the property which I did not report as I figured they would not be resolved either. I contacted VRBO and they refunded me their portion of the reservation. What was supposed to be an enjoyable family weekend turned into a nightmare. It looks like I will be filing a small claims case. Thankfully I have a lot of photos and documentation to submit with my claim.
Our stay at this cabin was excellent. The location of the property is close to downtown Franklin and neighboring towns. The main purpose of our trip was to get away and find peace and quiet and it was acheived. The cabin met all needs. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had all the necessary cooking supplies. Only complaint was we were suppose to check in at 4pm and did not get to check in until 7pm due to housekeeping arriving late. We will definitely rent this cabin in the future.
A gas leak forced us to move to another property
Had a great time
Very nice and very private. We plan on staying there again. The close encounter with a black bear getting into the trash cans was a great experience. We manage to capture it on video. The bear took one of the trash cans away but we recovered it the next day. It was such a great experience we will always talk about.
The house was cozy and comfortable. It is only 10 minutes from our friends antique store Nestfeathers. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was accomodating and the deck was where we hung out! Very peaceful. We would consider staying again when in the area!
We love this cabin! It's the perfect place to access all the fun and adventure in this area: hiking, fishing, scenic drives, waterfalls, etc. It's close to great towns with shopping and restaurants. And there's nothing better than relaxing on the porch to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or afternoon drink while listening to nature at your doorstep.
The location of the cabin is perfect. It’s secluded but close to town. The setup of the cabin inside was very nice. We were comfortable and happy.
Beautiful view, house could have been cleaned better. Dog hair on rugs in bathroom and floors dirty. Low water pressure,
A stay for myself and friends to enjoy motorcycle riding in the Smokies. The cabin was great and location was fantastic! Will definitely stay here again.
A very comfortable cabin with all the amenities needed for a perfect weeks staay. There was plenty of room to park our car, truck, and motorcycle trailer. The only problem we had was finding the driveway as the sign with the address was back from the road and hidden among the bushes and we passed it before seeing it. The road is wide enough for two cars, but it took a while to find a spot large enough to turn the truck and trailer around. The driveway is paved, but steep and curvy. The house was wonderful and was well stocked with kitchen tools to prepare meals and a gas grill for cooking outside. We were unable to enjoy the firepit as it rained quite a bit during our stay, but sitting on the porch swing while it rained was enjoyable. TV reception was spotty fading in and out and the internet went out once. The bedrooms were comfortable and very quiet. All considered, we had a great time at the Blue Beary Bungalow and would consider going back again.
Peaceful Quiet and Relaxing cabin nestled in the woods. Perfect lil get away with all things Smokies. Just on the outskirts of town. Close to town. Waterfalls and wildlife in every direction. Tastefully designed furnished and organized. With all the comforts of home. I would give it 5 Diamonds for its charming warm character.
Very good. Everyone in our group said they would return again.
We loved our stay. The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed. It was peaceful and easy to reach with a 2-wheel drive.
