About the host

Host profile image
Hi my name is Mark, my wife Leslie and I want to Welcome you to our cabin VRBO Site. We are blessed to be the care takers of this great property. We are native Floridians
but we love being in the mountains. We fell in love with the Town of Franklin & the Franklin Area. The area is so beautiful with the rolling mountains, flowing streams & rivers. Not to mention the great number beautiful water falls around the area. Beside the beauty of the area, the people in and around Franklin area are very friendly to new comers. Franklin is very close to so many things to do and places to see with in a few minutes or hours. All this without the craziness and business of a larger city. The Gem mining is the best of any place I know around the country. But the thing I personally love the most is to be able to just get away from it all and to just relax in a rocker with my feet propped up on a the porch rail and just enjoy the views, sounds and fresh air of being in the mountains.

Why they chose this property

Since the Smokies is one of our favorite places to visit, when the opportunity came to purchase a cabin in Franklin we jumped on it! The Franklin area is a charming community with much to do in the area. We have enjoyed owning this cabin and we love sharing it with others to experience the tranquility we have found there. This peaceful retreat is nestled among trees on top of a hill with lots of privacy and tranquility. We have outfitted our cabin to be like we would want it to be to live there. That means we take pride in the way our cabin is presented. We have chosen furniture that is good quality and comfortable. As well as keeping the cabin tidy and clean. The wrap around porch has 2 porch swings & plenty of rockers for all who come to stay. We want all our guests to feel right at home and to want to return to 'Another Day in Bearadise' time & time again. We want our guests to feel like this Cabin is their Mountain Retreat Get Away Spot from today's very hectic lives that we all live. So come give us a try you will not be disappointed!

What makes this property unique

Our cabin is located quiet little community in a part of the Smoky mountains that makes it convenient to many destinations. A 30 minute drive to Cherokee, Bryson City and many other site seeing cities. It is in a great location for many activities. We are in the heart of the Gem Mining, hiking trails, and waterfalls. Also very close to white water rafting and the Great Smokey Mountain train ride in Bryson City. The Little Tennessee river to fish, tube or canoe is just across the highway. You can stay busy all day with all the things to do. However, if you don't want to be busy it is so relaxing to just sit on the wrap around porch taking in the fresh mountain air. When you stay at our cabin you are able to disconnect from all the hustle and bustle that constantly pulls on your daily schedule. With the peace and quiet you can really disconnect and actually engage one another in conversations and spending time around the fire pit or playing games together. You are able to take the time to make lifetime memories together. We take pride in making our cabin clean, comfortable and set up for your enjoyment. It is a perfect place for a getaway in the Smokies.
