This was a great place to stay with family to celebrate my daughter's graduation from WCU. The cabin is clean, well-stocked, and beautiful. We would definitely stay here again.
The Fireman’s Dream is exactly as described. The house was spacious, well decorated and clean. We especially loved the large porch with seating for all of us. Communication with the property owner was great. The location is very close to Franklin which is a great mountain town. We would definitely recommend this property.
2nd time staying!! Girl's trip with my daughter and granddaughter. Love the cabin, gated porch, hot tub and surroundings. Very peaceful. Love the Franklin area and property, will be back again.
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
Very pretty area. Had a lovely stay, will be back again! Rooms were clean and spacious. I loved the porch and rocking chairs. Hot tub was nice and warm.
Property is exactly as described. The beds and furniture are all very comfortable and the location is perfect for relaxing. Sattellite TV and fast WiFi were top notch.
The host was amazing and everything was clean. The reason I went was to see the changing of the leaves and the cabin had it all. If I could give him 10 stars I would.

Thank you for amazing review. We are glad you enjoyed our cabin. Fall leaves were spectacular this year.
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.
