About this property
Peaceful mountain views, just a short distance to major WNC attractions.
Quaint, historical mountain home; two bedroom, two bath, with additional loft sleeping area. Picture perfect views, with a front porch ideal for watching the mountain sunset or relaxing hill top sitting area with firepit.
You won't run out of things to do here, as this area is the ideal vacation spot for couples, families or anyone who loves the outdoors. We boast of some of the best hiking trails and fishing spots in western NC as well as breathtaking waterfalls. Minutes away from multiple access points to the famous Appalachian Trail, and a favorite spot for many hikers to stop and refuel in their journey. The town of Franklin itself, offers unique shopping, dining, and breweries along with parks and The Fun Factory, a favorite for children. We are just minutes from local businesses that offer tubing and canoeing in the Little Tennessee River and trout fishing perfect for young families. There are multiple options for gem mining nearby, as this is the Gem Capital of the World.
If you want something larger scale, the NOC is 30 minutes away, home of world class rapids, ziplining, hiking, biking, climbing, etc. Taking a short, scenic drive will lead you to The Great Smoky Mountain railroad for family fun, or even Harrah's Cherokee Casino.
