While this is listed as a cabin, it is really 1650 square feet of spacious living. This cabin was just built in December 2006, so the condition is "new." It comes fully furnished with everything you need to stay one week, or one year. All appliances, including washer/dryer are new.

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).

    • 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.

    • The Corkill cabin ranks up there among the Who's Who in log cabins. The cabin is not only beautiful but also comes fully loaded with all the amenities of home and much more. The cabin is located in the heart of all there is to do in Frankin and close by everything else. Can't wait to book the next trip.

    • My wife and I have been renting mountain cabins for over thirty years and this cabin surpasses them all. In many instances it felt like we were roughing it in order to get a good view or location, not so with the Corkill cabin. We never felt so immediately at home as we did on this trip. We couldn't have asked for anything nicer as this is truly a luxurious cabin. I would be proud to call it my home. I must also commend the excellent depiction on the internet for so accurately showing what a great place this is.

    • Great location, had snow which was great. Nice house. Best place I've stayed. Walmart 4 minutes away, with food, so it doesn't matter what you forget. RC

    • I stayed at the Corkill Cabin the week of Christmas with my daughters and two grandchildren. The cabin was perfect and they had even decorated it with lights and stockings on the mantel for the holidays. Everything that you could have wanted or needed was supplied. The location was very convenient to everything. It was a wonderful holiday and would love to stay at the cabin in the future.

    • We had a wonderful experience at the Corkill Cabin! We researched many, many, properties; and by far this cabin was superior! Everything was centered around the comfort of the quests; for which we appreciate immensely! Their are 5 Star Hotels; well our family consider this cabin to be a 5 Star Cabin. We surely plan a return visit next year!
