Weekend getaway

Went for a quick weekend getaway to the mountains with the family and dogs. The Cabin was clean and very roomy. The surrounding area was beautiful and quiet. We had fun hiking and admiring waterfalls.

Our Mom’s 99th Birthday

The accommodations were great. The property was beautiful. The waterfall was beautiful also. My grandchildren enjoyed the games provided. We were in Franklin for my mother’s 99th birthday. Although we would have liked to be closer to Franklin, we were very comfortable in the house. Plenty of room for the family that stayed with us. Thank you so much.

Peace and quiet!

The property where this cabin is located is very peaceful and relaxing. Siting outside and listening to the water restores the soul. The furniture is very comfortable and the kitchen has what is needed for basic cooking. We had no cell service, but the internet was strong enough for calls and streaming Netflix. The owners are very responsive to any questions or recommendations you may need. We really enjoyed our time here.

Great out of the way place

Loved the location even though the driveway was not built for a 4 door long bed truck lol. Over all the house was great, that being said the downstairs room is unfinished (half finished flooring and no furniture) with little to no wifi connectivity. Better internet services for TV streaming and the finishing of that one room and I'd give this house perfect marks. Loved the toy and game selections for the kids, beds were super comfortable, good selection of cooking utensils and grill. Beautiful deck and view of the water fall.
