We thoroughly enjoyed staying in your cabin. It is just what we anticipated and more. Thanks for arranging the perfect weather and keeping “Fay” away so we didn’t have to cancel our plans! This area is so awesome – no wonder we met so many people from Florida. We caught ourselves looking at some realty magazines! Thank you again for everything. We will be back!

Thank you so much for some much needed R&R. We enjoyed our stay. Hummingbirds were everywhere! Beautiful dark butterflies, the occasional turkeys, and even a few groundhogs! We loved the setup of the house! I hope that we can visit again next year.

We had a wonderful time and truly appreciate the use of your beautiful cabin. We saw a family of wild turkeys, a deer, bats, fireflies, and the hummingbirds here at Hidden Acres. Every day was an adventure exploring the region and finding great places to visit and sights to see. Went rafting on the Ocoee – out 64 back on 19-28. Took a ride out Wahay Road-SR1310 to the Appalachian Trail. 2 Visits to Asheville with the kids – The kids (19 &21) loved our time here. Thanks Chris & Theresa

Thank you so much for letting us use your cabin. It was a very relaxing week. Our 7 year old loved everything from gem mining, canoeing down the Little Tenn. We were visiting friends who live in Franklin and they were in awe of the view.

Thank you for the use of your cabin. The scenery from the back porch was beautiful. We had a great time whitewater rafting (52 degree water!), gem mining, Dollywood, jet boat trip on Lake Fontana, traveling down many windy roads, singin in the Smokies with the Inspirations (great gospel music!), seeing the wild turkeys on our walks here (it is a lot easier going down than coming back up!!) It was a great time to relax!! The kids loved Fat Buddies – they have great ribs!

We had a very pleasant week at the cabin! We spent our days sightseeing and mining for gems. We went to Rose Creek mines and found quite a lot in the emerald, sapphire, & ruby buckets along with one mega bucket. We did quite a bit of asking about Mason & Sheffield mines only to discover Rose Creek really was the best. Very friendly! We even went back a second time! We went to Gem Factory to have our choice stones cut and mailed to us. We recommend both Willy’s BBQ & Fat Buddies BBQ. (Fat Buddies was hard to find behind Lowe’s in Franklin.) We also liked Sprinkles for their ice cream and super friendly service. The owner recommended taking the road towards Highlands to see the waterfalls. Very scenic! We shopped in Highlands at their quaint downtown. Our kids, ages 11 and almost 9 enjoyed the Fun Factory very much! The pizza bar and a steak restaurant are located inside. They also had bumper cars, bowling, arcade games and an outdoor race track, merry go round, and putt putt golf. The kids enjoyed earning tickets to cash in for prizes at the end. The house was beautiful and secluded. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again in the future!

Owners – Hello! We came up to spend a wonderful week at the cabin to check on things as vacation. As usual, the week flew by! Lots of fishing at our pond at Sequoyah – Sterling caught 5 trout in an hour! And fishing & canoeing the river from Jerry’s Fish Camp. DO NOT MISS JW Mitchell’s farm right up the road off 28- we had so much fun picking strawberries and eating right off the plant – yum! All organic produce, farm fresh eggs, etc. We got new carpet and new chairs for the living room. Did a thorough housecleaning- the carpenter bees were very bad so we will be staining & painting the entire cabin mid-June. We did not get a chance to pick up a new picnic table but know it needs to be replaced. We love it up here and hope you will enjoy your stay here as much as we always do- PS don’t miss Pickin in the Square on Saturday nights in downtown Franklin –eat at the Frog & Owl

We came to celebrate our 20th Anniversary. The cabin was the best part of our whole vacation. After a rough day of treasure hunting it was great to come back & get in the hot tub. We lost power due to the storm from Tues-Wed but that was okay. Stay away from Mason Mine on Airport Road- very expensive and we didn’t find anything. All in all we had a great time! Thanks for everything!

We didn’t want to go home! It is so relaxing and beautiful here. I’m usually a beach person but this cabin and experience has turned me into a mountain girl. We had a lot of fun gem hunting and ended up with some pretty good finds. We very much enjoyed watching the sunset from the hot tub. We hope to return soon!! This was such a wonderful experience!! Thank you for sharing your dreamy cabin!
