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, 2009Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We are building a home in Franklin and spend a lot of time in the area--will continue to do so over the next few years. We've tried five or six other properties, looking for a place to hang out during the building process. This is the first one we will consider staying in again. Great location; easily accessible. Clean. They have everything you would need for a nice stay. Very much appreciated that no pets and no smoking is permitted. You do have to jump through quite a few hoops for this (check-in, check-out lists, deposit, mail back key instead of leaving it for the maid, etc.), but I guess it helps to make sure guests aren't tearing things up. Good find!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

What a perfect base of operations for me & my family. Every year we try to come up to the mountains from Florida to get away from the heat and flat lands. This year we were able to visit Clayton, Dillard, Franklin, Highlands, Cherokee, Dillsboro, Sylva and Cashier's and still be back at the cabin in time to have a nice family dinner together. The home was perfect. Easy to get to and from, and for myself my favorite part was a nice kitchen to cook in and to walk into a vacation home that is Immaculate We were all sad to leave. Thank you again for a wonderful vacationOwner response: Thanks for the kind words.

We stayed during our son's school spring break and we loved the cabin. It's spacious and very comfortable. Bill was very helpful and prompt to answer our questions. We were able to do some gem diggings which was the reason we chose to spend the spring break in NC. I would recommend this property to any vacationers who wish to have a relaxing break.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We stayed for a week - March 3rd through the 10th. The cabin is well stocked and is really beautiful. Everything you could possibly need for a week of exploring Western NC. The cabin is easy to find as well. Close enough to town to get supplies, but far enough away to not feel like you are staying in a real populated area. There is really good trout fishing to be enjoyed in Dillsboro. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely recommend to others. Overall my wife and I agreed that the pictures do not really do the cabin justice. Thanks Bill!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, sightseeing.

This cabin was beautiful,clean and well maintained. It is everything it says it is on the description. Their is plenty of room inside and we had a very relaxing stay while we were there. It is just minutes from Franklin and restaurants and stores. We did not want to leave when it came time to go. I would have loved to stayed a few weeks longer. Their are a lot of things to do around the Franklin area and some beautiful sights to see. We go their almost every year and this is the best place that we have stayed at by far. We will rent this cabin again if it is available. We want to thank Bill for working with us and allowing us to stay in his beautiful cabin. We sure do envy him and his family and wish we had a place like this ourselves.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Finely appointed and comfortable 'cabin' (home) in the mountains of Franklin. The house was tucked away nicely and had plenty of privacy without sacrificing the comforts of home. The house was very spacious and included everything we needed for a quiet mountain get-away. It was conveniently located 5 minutes from the town of Franklin and 20 minutes from Highlands. If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy the mountains, this is the place!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.
