Accommodations: Cabin, 3 Bedrooms + No additional sleeping rooms avail, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 6)

Ten beautiful acres of mountains shared by only three houses. Enjoy the privacy and beautiful mountain views, yet the convenience of being only five minutes from town/Wal-Mart.

The master bedroom, dining room, laundry room, guest bathroom, and living room are all located on the first floor. On the second floor are two large bedrooms and a large guest bathroom. Outside there are large eight-foot decks around three of the four sides of the cabin, and a screen porch.
Note: To insure that all of our guests enjoy their time here, our "Cabin" is always smoke-free and pet-free. We also request a $60 non-refundable cleaning charge; so that we can ensure that our "cabin" is in tip top condition when our guests arrive. Check-in Time is 4 pm and Check-out time is 11 am (although we will work with you in special situations).

We loved this cabin!

We loved this cabin! Number one it was easy accessible from the main roads and just a few minutes away from town, but it was still in the mountains. The large log cabin looked new and was fresh and clean with all the modern conveniences of home. The nights were cool and the remote control gas log fireplace was a treat for my husband who loves anything with a remote control! We made several day trips around the area; going to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge to Dillsboro, to Dillard, etc. We loved all the antique shops in Franklin. We have stayed in Franklin many times and this was another great vacation thanks to this welcoming cabin. November 7-14, 2009

05/28/2011 This cabin is beutiful. My two adult sons and I stayed for a week. Kitchen cookware was excellent. Beds were comfortable. Most important was that the cabin was clean, and centrally located for our white water trips on the Chattooga River and Nantahala. We hiked the smokies and fished the nearby rivers. Bill and Theresa have a lovely cabin and we thank them for the oppurtunity to rent it. Donna, Eric and Albert

Our stay at this cabin was like being home, it has everything that you need and then some. It was very cozy on the cool nights during December. The views are great and it is easy access. This is a great place to stay for a week or longer and we will definitely be coming back.

The cabin was as exactly as it was described on the website.The furnishings were great and we had everything we needed. The mountain view was breathtaking and the cabin had easy excess and as always the Walmart was convenient and handy. Be sure to take a little trip to Sylva and visit the Coffee Shop Resturant for a outstanding breakfest,the prices were very resonable and the food was excellent. Also close at hand was the Hungry Bear resturant next to the Stitch In Time quilt shop and for great BBQ visit Fat Buddies in the shopping center behind Lowes. We visited several waterfalls on 64 East around the towns of Cashiers and Highlands. The most impressive was the one on 107 out of Cashiers called the Whitewater Falls in the National park.The scenery and fall leaves were beyond description.
Owner response:Thanks for the input.

The cabin is absoulutely beautiful, and has all the ammenities of home. It is spacious, nicely furnished, and clean. It is close to many restaurants, and shopping. A great place to vacation, peaceful and quiet, and still close enough to participate in gem mining, tubing,et., and secenery is great for photography.. This was our first trip to N.C., but if we go there again, we will certainly check to see if this cabin is available.

I've been renting cabins for over forty years and this is absolutely the best in terms of location, amenities, and price. We like it so much this is our second visit in less than a year. Unlike many cabins that didn't live up to the advertising, this one far surpasses it. You'll be shocked when you first enter the cabin and wonder how you got so much for your money. Oh, I'd better not say that, Bill might raise the prices. Seriously, this is a great place at a very reasonable rate. My only complaint is that it's so popular it's hard to get a booking.

We came for just a little while but left with so many memories of the quite and dark nights, bluebird at our breakfast window, the splendor of the Smokey Mtn's. from the deck, scenic waterfalls close by, finding real gems, Cherokee history "Unto These Hills", Biltmore estate, Bryson railroad, Blue Ridge Pkwy.,to the tales of Jutaculla Rock. After a day of sightseeing it was of so nice to come home to our cabin (well at least for the week) in the mountains. Where we found comfy clean beds and bathrooms and a well equipped kitchen. The owners really do have a gem of a cabin in Franklin N.C. and if you want the "real gems" check the Rose Creek Mine where you can dig your own.. You will find real rubies, garnets and so much more. I have already passed this gem of a a cabin on to friends.

This was a beautiful cabin in a great location near Franklin, NC. We enjoyed our stay hiking many of the waterfall trails in the area. The cabin is very clean and comfortable. We would not hesitate recommending it to others.
