Cozy large cabin with family atmosphere. Loved, loved, loved the constant strong sounds of the several small rapids right off the back porch. The handy fireplace was a bonus too. Was torn between being inside with fireplace or outside with the creek. This is a “home run” cabin.
Had a wonderful time at this cabin. Located between Franklin and Highlands. Close to waterfalls and hiking. Wi-Fi is in and out so if you have small children maybe bring some dvds. There was a DVD player! They had lots of games to play which was also nice.We would love to come back in warmer weather so our kids can explore the river more. No cell reception except on Verizon so we had trouble getting in. However, spoke to owner and property manager and they said they are going to put a better system in place. Overall was a lovely place and would recommend it for family vacations.
