We really enjoyed our stay at Rabbit Creek Hideaway! The listing and photos were very accurate, the cabin was extremely clean and the location was perfect for us (private, but so close to town). It was well stocked and had everything we needed for our stay. The host was quick to respond when I had a question prior to our trip. A nice surprise was the personalized note and a jar of handmade jam that was waiting for us! Will definitely book this cabin or with this host again when staying in Franklin.

We loved everything about the cabin- from the magical driveway to the coziness of the interior to the relaxing screened in porch. It was a pure delight! Spotless and well appointed- even down to the frozen can in the freezer to throw away your hot grease! Thank you for sharing your obviously well loved and cared for getaway!

We had another wonderful weekend at the cabin. From the mornings on the screened porch enjoying nature and our surroundings with a cup of coffee, to a fun morning downtown, to our afternoon in the warm, cozy and comfortable den, to our evening spent down in the game room having fun and a little competition; our weekend was perfect. Our hosts provided many thoughtful extras that added to make the cabin so comfy and make it feel like home. Our grandson enjoyed the loft where he could spend "his time". Our hosts went above and beyond and they made sure our time at their cabin was welcoming and a place for us to make memories.Thanks so much!!!

Silence is golden at Rabbit Creek.

We enjoyed the quiet of the area no matter what time of day we were rocking on the screened porch. The cabin is in a great location to have a fun day trip then return to the quiet.

This was truly a 'cabin in the mountains' experience. The inside is so charming, clean and comfortable. Easy to get to, yet very private and not far at all from downtown, grocery stores and restaurants. While at the cabin, we spent most of our time on the screened in porch enjoying the beautiful mountain view. We even challenged each other to a game of darts and ping pong in the basement game room. And yes, the carrot cake jam is delicious! Definitely would go back!

Love this place

We were so busy rock hounding that we didn’t spend as much time at the cabin as originally planned, however it is an amazing place and the communication was stellar. We would highly recommend it to everyone.

Secluded feel but convenient location

The cabin was close to town yet felt like a secret hideaway! Very clean and homey. Lots of games, puzzles, table games, but we spent most time on the screen porch watching the cows, birds, and wildlife. Nice shower with plentiful hot water and strong pressure--have stayed in fancy hotels with a poorer shower than this one! Cozy loft and 2nd bathroom upstairs. Well equipped kitchen (bring coffee/tea and water if you're not used to well water) for staying in and cooking. One of those places you hate to leave when your time is up. Definitely will return!
