Very neat property in the mountains. Beautiful time of year to go. Really thankful for great communication with the owner. Some issues with the owners suite shower and kitchen sink. Thankfully the owner had a rep on standby that was very attentive.

Remote cozy retreat.

Loved how remote and quiet this cabin was. The activity shelter near the hot tub was really a cozy place to sit and enjoy the portable fire pit and watch the fall leaves showering down. The kitchen was nicely equipped and modern.

Peaceful tranquility at the Cabin.

We loved the cabin and the peaceful tranquility of our stay. So peaceful. The hot tub made it even better. Our only concern was the 2 miles up the mountain was really 2 miles up a 1.5 lane road that was not much fun in a full size pick up truck. But once we did it a couple times.. no biggy.. and was the reason for the tranquility. Super easy check in and communication.

Perfect Mountain getaway with the absolute best hosts! We absolutely loved our perfect 3-night stay at this gorgeous cabin in the North Carolina mountains near Franklin. The cabin itself is awesome—cozy, super clean, beautifully decorated, and has that perfect “mountain escape” vibe with fantastic views, a great hot tub, and all the little thoughtful touches that make you feel right at home. We spent our days hiking, our evenings by the fire pit with s’mores, and our nights just soaking it all in. But, the thing made our stay special were our hosts, Danny & Jordan. These two are the gold standard! They were so quick to respond to every single message (we had a couple of issues during our stay and those were taken care of immediately) and they seemed genuinely excited for us to be there. Their communication was excellent from the first inquiry all the way through checkout, we’ve never had such smooth and friendly hosting. If you’re looking for a romantic getaway, family trip, or just a peaceful mountain hideout, this place is a 10/10 and Danny & Jordan are the reason it feels even better than the photos. We can’t recommend it enough!

Escape from the Rat Race

My wife and I spent a week at your very peaceful cabin, which is exactly what we needed! Just sitting and listening to nature was so tranquil. The cabin was even nicer than we had expected. Extremely clean and well stocked. Once we came down the mountain, Franklin was only a few minutes away. We would highly recommend this to anyone looking to unwind. - The Campbells

Beautiful Secluded cabin

The cabin was perfect - clean and well stocked! The property is beautiful. We loved the layout - grill, covered bar area and hot tub. I definitely recommend this property! Best of all and most impressive was the host. We ran into a problem - totally out of the hands of the host and nothing to do with the state of the cabin. He went above and beyond to help us - including a few follow-up calls. He is very much invested in ensuring you have the best possible experience!

The cabin was nice. It’s very remote and we enjoyed the adventure it took to get up the mountain. The outside activities area was lacking. There was grime and bird droppings on many items, and it was not an appealing part of the property. The picnic table was very dirty and the grill and tools were pretty rusty. We originally wanted to have a cookout but changed our plans. The hot tub was broken. We did not find out until we arrived. We specially booked this property for the hot tub. It was dirty, unplugged, and the service panel was ajar. The host refused to provide us with any kind of courtesy discount or refund, which I find bewildering. We probably won’t use Vrbo for our next booking, solely because the app allowed us to book a stay at a place that did not have the key amenities featured, and because the CS team has told us we’re own our own as far as expecting any kind of assistance or compensation. It feels pretty scammy, tbh.
