We love Fireman’s Dream cabin. This is a repeat visit for us and we will definitely stay again when we visit Franklin. The cabin is clean, private has wonderful deck/porch with gates for safety with pets and babies. The cabin is spacious and comfortable for large family gathering. The beds are very comfortable and well stocked with linens and nice towels. The kitchen is very functional with everything needed to cook or enjoy. The location is convenient, beautiful wooded setting. Parking is convenient for multiple vehicles. Ted, the host, is very responsive.

We love vacationing to the smoky mountains and this is one of my favorite cabins I’ve stayed! We saw deer nearly every morning, and the wrap around porch made for wonderful relaxing outside time. I loved the Appalachian stick furniture/art throughout the cabin, and plenty of entertainment for everyone. If you are looking for a relaxing retreat this place is perfect

This is a hidden gem. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed during our stay. The house was decorated for Christmas and the hot tub was ready for our use. The host, Ted, responed quickly to emails. The bottom floor was a little cool but the space heaters that were provided kept my famy warm and comfortable. We had no complaints and would book this place again without hesitation.
