Come stay in the our Charming Rustic Cabin. This cabin is tucked away in the mountains with an elevation of 2700 feet. On the large deck you will a get a great view of the mountains and surrounding valley on two acres. You get a little piece of heaven when you are up here. The cabin was built in the 1970's and still has that rustic, primitive feel to it. The walls are made with logs that still have the bark attached to them, taking you back to a simpler place and time. The inside has been updated with new modern amenities; flooring, stainless steel appliances, kitchen cabinets with quartz counter tops, new bathrooms, mattresses with linens, farmhouse table, and much more. There is also a new washer and dryer in the basement.

The decor has a rustic, industrial feel. The cabin has three private bedrooms on the main floor, two with queen beds, one with king bed, and one full bathroom with a vanity, tub, and shower. With sleeping accommodations up to 10 guests. Upstairs in the loft there are three more beds, two twins and one queen for extra guests.

Gather around the dining room for your family dinners. The farmhouse table has an extension that can seat up to ten people. With 2400 sq ft. open floor plan, it's easy to spend quality time with the family. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook up a delicious country dinner, or maybe dinner on the outside gas grill. Enjoy a glass of wine snuggled by the wood burning stone fireplace. Maybe you would prefer sitting back on the rocking chairs or relax on the swing while enjoying a cup of coffee on a spacious deck with mountain views. You might even see a deer or two! There's even plenty of more room on the picnic bench to enjoy dessert. On the outside you can gather around an oasis of a fire pit with string lighting, making for a relaxing ambience to forget all your troubles. There's also a Hammock for two to enjoy for a quick nap or catch up on some reading. Come be our guest and enjoy this piece of heaven !

A short drive to Downton Franklin will bring you to shops and restaurants located right on Main Street. Just down from our mountain within walking distance, during season , is Ruby Mine, which you can pan for rubies, emeralds, and sapphires. Entertainment for the whole family just minutes away.

Beautiful views
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Everything was clean and comfortable. The kids loved the game room! Little ones had fun hunting Easter eggs on Easter morning and the views were beautiful.

Peaceful (and fun)!
A metal sign on the mantel of the fireplace says, "Home Sweet Home." That's a very good description of the Rustic Cabin. While the weather outside became cold, rainy and windy, my husband and I enjoyed reading by the fireplace. The teens, meanwhile, never grew bored as they played in the loft and game room. Their laughter filled our days at this lovely home.

Amazing Mountaintop View & Peaceful
We stayed the week after Christmas. My two teens had fun inside and out. My wife relaxed and I went gem mining just down the mountain. Great restaurants in Franklin, and very quiet place to rest and relax. Plenty of firewood and very clean. Great place to stay for sure.

About the host

Hosted by Angelo Tarallo

Host profile image
We are Angelo and Tina from Tampa, Fl. We have 4 kids, Cheyne, Nickki, Anthony, Austin and 5 grandkids, Vail, Quinn, Mila, Neville, and Vada. Our dream was to own a quiet little place up in the mountains for our family, which we finally found. Our dream came true in Jan 2018 and we just love it. We are getting ready to retire in a few years and hopefully use our cabin full time. As for now, we would like to share our dream with you :)

Why they chose this property

We have family up here who told us about Franklin and after a small vacation , we were set to find a place. After a few months of looking we found our place. Built in the 70's it was a run down cabin that needed TLC . My wife and I fell in love with the place and saw there was potential in this charming cabin. Close to our family , a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the mountains.

What makes this property unique

Close enough to town for shopping and restaurants but nestled in the Smoky Mountains with a great view, fire pit, lots of activities, games and tons of relaxation spots.
