Christmas Vacation

It was great we absolutely loved the cabin. It was exactly what we were looking for. We were so glad it was decorated for Christmas. We made some great memories. The only down fall was the parking it was very tight, and the main floor heating was not working.

Fall Family Weekend

We loved our stay in Franklin! The house was spacious enough for 8 adults and 7 kids. We loved the outdoor spaces as well. We explored Franklin one day and stayed at the house the next. There was plenty for the kids to do to stay entertained! We were also impressed with the amount of supplies that were available in the kitchen. There were also more than enough linens to use. We will definitely be back!

Great Cabin

Family get together went great! A little difficult following GPS as all signal lost as we left Hwy 23/441. Suggest that visitors get directions before heading on to 1 lane roads. (They don't go away when signal is lost!That being said, this was a wonderful place to stay. All family members thoroughly enjoyed the trip!

Avoid at all cost

This place is a dump and way overpriced. Main floor bathroom sinks are backed up and don't drain. Kitchen cabinets are falling off hinges. Kitchen sink drain smells horrible. No light in refrigerator. Upstairs in a bedroom closet is a huge wasp nest with wasps flying all over the bedrooms and main area. Baby gates that are advertised do not exist. Called the property manager with zero help regarding the wasps. Her response was "it's that time of year. Hopefully nobody will get stung". No guests were able to stay upstairs because of the wasps flying everywhere. Owners and property manager do not answer texts or calls asking for help. Complete rip-off.

Family Vacation

My husband, our children and their spouses and children all came together for a weekend "reunion.' The house was incredible and the stay was perfect. The only issue we had was a group of wasps. (we killed 13) But they did not impact us more than an "inconvenience." Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay!

Great House!

Four families came together for a few days and had a great time! Nice and roomy. Gorgeous laundry room. Tons of games! Nice hot tub. Five kids ages 12 down to 6 months and it was perfect for them. Main con is we didn’t have any cell service. Turned out to be somewhat nice so we focused on making memories, but not good for the ones that had to work. Overall, we all had one of the best vacations ever!
