Overall, an excellent cabin, highly suitable for 4-6 people. It was clean, well-stocked with amenities (spices, basic supplies, etc.) and a kitchen with extensive cooking gear. A nice fireplace and firepit (both of which we would have used except for the warmth for the first item and pouring rain for much of our trip for the second! Excellent front porch, easy commute into Franklin. All in all, a very nice cabin that we will stay in again!

Great, quiet, out of the way cabin. Well appointed with wverything you need to stay as long as you like. We really enjoyed our stay. Be aware that it is 20 minutes to the nearest grocery so bring your food. Also, the road to Nantahala lake is very curvy and the 10 mile drive will take 45 minutes but is worth the drive.

Great little house in the woods/could be cleaner.

We enjoyed the location (in the woods, but, close to town) and the comfortable layout and the little front porch with swing and rockers.

Would stay again!

This peaceful little get away was exactly what we needed. The house was beautiful, quiet area, clean except for some stuff that was missed in the upstairs shower but other than that it was perfect. I would rate 4.5 and we will definitely visit again!

Nice Cabin in the woods

We enjoyed our time at the beautiful cabin. We had family all meet there and it was real nice. Very private if that's what you are looking for and it's close to golfing and the gem shows which is why we were in Franklin. It was clean and well stocked with everything we needed.
