Dear Annabelle, I want to share with the world! your review.. I understand you weren’t able to do! We appreciate your words! and look forward to having you again! Thank you! “ Hi Maria, Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed the cabin. It did cool down (as you promised!) and the rest of the time the weather was great. We spent a lot of time on the porch and everyone enjoyed the smores. The beds were so comfortable and I slept like a rock. The review was done hastily and of course there is no way to modify it, but we did want to let you know how well the property worked for our family weekend. Annabelle”

Perfect for our large family

This house was perfect! Beds were comfortable and linens were nice. It was a perfect location for us because we were visiting family. The waterfalls were beautiful! We picked a terrible time to go because nothing was opened yet (early March), but that was no fault of the home.

Family gathering

Beautiful home with a lot of tasteful touches. Great location for family adventures and wonderful dinning choices. Best was outdoor deck for family get togethers. The down stairs not only had lots of things to do, but afforded privacy to adult family members. .Look forward to booking another stay.

Couple’s Getaway

It’s a beautiful home, with comfortable beds and very nice amenities! However, the location to Highlands was misrepresented on their listing. It’s actually a 45 minute drive, minimum, not 10 minutes as posted. That happened to be very inconvenient . They also experienced a cleaning issue and unfortunately we came in behind someone who brought a dog (no pet policy). The host stated, that the cleanliness matter is/was not their normal practice, but it did affect us. It was a nice trip over all, but we did experience some disappointment.

Mountain Getaway

The home was clean and beautiful just as was shown in pics. It was equipped with everything we needed! It was spacious and the game room was so fun! We enjoyed the pool table and dart games. We also enjoyed the fire pit and store supplies! It was a wonderful space for our family with plenty of space, 3 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms, 2 living spaces, a large deck…. It was perfect!

Lovely place in the woods

We had a wonderful stay. Maria, the host, was always reachable and very accommodating in our time of trouble when we had to extend our stay. Good amenities. We all enjoyed our stay. The woods surrounding the house are beautiful . We spotted a couple of deer and even a skunk nearby. The house was somehow always very cold whatever temp we set it to but other than that we had a great time.

Very pleasant

This place is very pleasant on the inside, and the outside, the mountains, is gorgeous of course. The pool table is very nice, my kids were surprised a rental would keep guests use such a nice one. 😁 We had a hard time finding any place at all to charge our electric car, FYI.

Nice house, quiet and peaceful. I think the price is a bit high for where its located. A bit far out there. We've stayed at another equally nice house closer to Franklin for half the price but was not available for our days.

If you are cheap of course there is many cheaper options and even a 2 ⭐️ ⭐️ hotel near Franklin. My house is up in the mountain, my guests want the quiet and peaceful environment. We are only 15 minutes to Highlands and 15 minutes from the center of Franklin, next time get a motel near the center to fit your needs.

Perfect location, very private!

We loved this location, and will be definitely come back again! The house was clean, the location was private, but close enough to the main road. We took a walk one morning, and the scenery was beautiful! The only negative to the weekend was having to drive the trash to the recycling center at the end of our stay. We didn't have much room in our car with all of our bags in the back - so that was a little difficult. Would love for that to have been covered in the cleaning fee. Overall, it was the perfect place to get away for our family of 4!

Hi Melissa, Thank you for your review, unfortunately the trash can’t be left at the property because it will attract bears, raccoons and other animals, so it is agains the law. The cleaners can’t take it with them specifically now with Covid per CDC guidelines. I am glad you enjoyed everything else.

Family gathering

Pros: property was clean, beautiful, comfortable!! Cons: This was a family trip for a retirement celebration. When I booked the trip I booked based on who was in my party. My niece decided to stay with us, last minute. I was billed an additional $50, which was no problem. My complaint with the owner was being called a liar about the (1) additional guess and her overall tone. I felt she was very unprofessional. There is always a way to say something without being rude!! Only other concern was the water filter needed to be changed as the water was discolored and there appeared to be a place on the rug in the lower level room that looked like vomit. My other family members stayed at a cabin in which they were provided an outside trash can but with this property you have to transport your garbage approximately 2 miles to the recycle site

Response from VrboOwner on 26 May 2021
Unfortunately this guest got upset when caught in a lie. I asked before checking in if there were more people coming to the family trip to adjust the fee accordingly, but they never wrote back adding their niece, when they got billed the extra $25 per night, which they haven’t even paid yet.. they threatened us with a bad review, SAD! Really SAD!! Garbage can’t be left in the house because the bears will try to get to it, so we need to take it to the recycle center. Not even sure what water filter are they are referring to.. the water comes from the mountains and is as pure as it can be. We will not want them back.

Beautiful cabin!!!The cabin is in a very quiet area, very clean, spacious, comfortable and equipped with everything we needed for cooking, including an outside grill. The outside deck includes a table and seating which made it very pleasant for our BBQ gathering. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding and towels provided were clean. The dishwasher, washer and dryer all worked as expected. One bathroom was a walk-in shower and the other two bathrooms were tubs. The cabin is about 3 miles off the main road, 441. Ingles is about 10 minutes away from the cabin. La Cabanitas (Mexican restaurant) was very clean in close driving proximity with friendly staff and great food. Maria, the host was very responsive to our inquiries. Would definitely book again!!!

Perfect getaway

The property was clean, well maintained and perfectly placed in an area that was at the end of the road. Therefore, made it feel exclusive, yet was very accessible to scenic heights, waterfalls & groceries! Has everything you need to make wonderful memories!

STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!This is a nice home but it needs repair from the rotten board on the porch. The owner will try to blame damages on you to get you to pay for them. We stayed there and the owner is trying to blame us for an already damaged wall around a dart board that has hundreds of holes.

A True Joy

What a beautiful home. It had everything. Spotless upon arrival. Open floor plan allowed us to enjoy the outlay of the home. Night after night we would sit on the porch and re-hash the days events of motorcycling. The location is outstanding. A true joy to stay in such a great place. Thank you for sharing your home.

Beautiful property, only a few miles from downtown Franklin

Beautiful, emaculate, comfortable beds, all linens furnished. Well equipped cabin. Great communication with owner. Only issue was getting up the gravel road there but I think it was our tires. We had to get running start from paved road to get up a small hill. We would stay there again and highly recommend it to others. Sleeps 9 comfortably. But we only had 4.
