About the host

Host profile image
Both Helen and I grew up in Franklin. This is where we have always called "home", regardless of where we laid our head. We raised our beautiful family here. We hope that you'll fall in love with Franklin, the Great Smoky Mountains and Brendle Cabin that we built with love and pride.

Why they chose this property

The Great Smoky Mountains are just that...great! Great to relax. Great to hike. Great to experience nature's glory in one of the many local water falls. Great to find a gem at one of the local gem mining facilities. Great to take a drive and see why the Smoky Mountains are great! Brendle cabin is situated in the middle of all of these great activities and more!

What makes this property unique

There is nothing better than sitting on the large, covered porch, with a gentle mountain breeze cooling your skin as you idly swing back and forth on the comfy porch swing. Unless it's putting together a meal to grill out on the deck before settling in for a quiet evening with a movie in the DVR. We find that everyone wants to hang out at the cabin and share great stories and a lot of laughter.
