Hi ! We are Rhonda & Dan 👧🏼👨🏼
Thank you for checking out our little slice of heaven in The Smokies!
My husband Dan, was born in Daytona Beach, one of the few natives of Florida! He has
been known to be called “Florida Cracker”
I grew up in Iowa, no, not Ohio or Idaho… Iowa, that wonderful state that is in the heart of and the good ole USA . The corn 🌽 state !
I came to Florida when I was 18 and have been here ever since.
We have 3 grown daughters and 4 amazing granddaughters !! They all keep us busy !
We love traveling, boating, hiking and camping just to name a few 😉
We bought the cabin in Franklin in 2020 after Covid because we weren’t sure what was going to happen with our jobs, etc.
For the past 20 plus years we have always traveled to Franklin and the surrounding area. We knew eventually we wanted to retire there. We were premature in purchasing our “retirement home” because we weren’t retired yet 😆 so we decided to share our home and all the beauty and serenity it provides .
We have been hosting since 2013. We moved from the West coast of Florida to the East coast to be near family and used our previous home as an air bnb as well.
We love sharing our cabin and all it has to offer. We love hearing all the wonderful stories from our guests of their adventures and memories made while staying here!
Glad you stopped by and we hope to share our beautiful cabin with you and your family !

Why they chose this property

To be honest …. It was 2020, we were in Florida and the housing market was just beginning to go crazy. We bought the cabin sight unseen 😬
Boy were we blown away when we finally got up here to see it! The drive to the cabin alone was spectacular!! We fell in love immediately when we saw it. ❤️ So much better than we even imagined. It is so peaceful. Secluded but not remote. Our neighbors are wonderful however each home is separated by at least 2-3 acres.
We love sitting on the front porch and watching the families of deer grazing in our yard.
Our favorite has to be sitting on the back deck and watching the sunset in the evenings.
Sitting on the front porch watching the moon rise is a close second. 😊

What makes this property unique

Our cabin is unique in several ways….the windows! The beautiful light that filters in through the day and into nighttime.
When you are in the cabin you feel like you’re in a big treehouse . Its breathtaking!
You can watch the moonrise in the front window and the sunset in the back without even going outside!
The location is perfect, 10 minutes from downtown Franklin, less than an hour away from the beautiful Nantahala River and just over an hour from the gorgeous “wild and scenic” Chattooga River.
