Nice cabin for a couple people as we visited the Cowhee Valley area for a long weekend. The entrance was a bit confusing, but the directions given for check-in made sense once you got there. Bathroom was small, but clean.

Nice short getaway

Travelled to Franklin to celebrate our 36th wedding anniversary and attend Henry Cho concert at Smoky Mountain Arts Center. Quaint and comfortable. Owner was nice and thoughtful with gift for our anniversary. Was very quick overnight as we had to leave early next morning. Make sure you try nearby CafeREL. Awesome place to eat. Will rent again when we have more time to spend.

About the host

Hosted by Donna Vasquez

Host profile image

We are from Macon Georgia but have been coming to this area for a long time. our grandmother was born in Franklin and Our Parents bought this house many years ago. It has hosted many people and provided many wonderful vacations over the years. We love vacationing ourselves and love creating spots for others to relax, refresh and enjoy. We hope that you will enjoy every minute of your stay.

Why they chose this property

Franklin is a great place to stay in the smoky mountains. Untouched by commercialism, it's like stepping back into yesteryear. The people in Franklin are some of the friendliest we know. Franklin is central to so many other destinations Try day trips to Dry Falls, Highlands, Clayton, Dillsborough and Bryson City. Even Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Asheville are great for day trips. Enjoy hiking, Canoeing, Kayaking and gemstone mining locally. Also if you're flying in, our place is only a mile away from the Franklin Airport.

What makes this property unique

Our Cabin sits away from town in the county side. There are neighbors close by but it feels like you are away from them all. We have a beautiful fire pit area with string lights overhead that makes a great ending to any night. Our front porch is great for slowly waking up while sipping coffee in the mornings. Just around bend is the river where you kayak or swim or picnic. All around our property are gem mines where you can pan for rubies, garnets, emeralds, sapphire, quartz & kyanite.
