What a view!!! We stayed here for our children's spring break and the house fit our 12 perfectly. It was well equipped with games, tvs, kitchen supplies and a coffee bar!!! The property was beautiful, quiet and secluded. Parking was adequate for our 3 vehicles and there was even a place for a fire with a shed full of wood. The host was very helpful when we had questions. Highly recommend this home for your mountain stay.

Amazing location

We had 16 people staying together and this property offered enough space for everyone to have their own place to wind down. This location checked off all of our big ticket items like tubing down the "O" in cherokee and golfing in Franklin. Franklin is sooo cute! I would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic place

This is the absolute best VRBO family place we have ever stayed in. It was super clean and the extra touches made us feel so very welcomed. The children’s toys and play areas were amazing. The property mgr responded immediately to any questions that came up. The kitchen had everything we could possibly need. Bathrooms were well stocked. The views from the porch of the Smokies were incredible. It was more than roomy enough for our group of 8 adults and 4 young children. It is a 5 Star plus place to stay.

Great Cabin and host!

We had a wonderful time at this cozy cabin. The views were amazing and the scenery was so relaxing. The cabin had all the amenities our family needed: lots of board games and toys for the kids and a full coffee bar for mom and dad. The hot tub was nice on cool evenings. Best of all, the host was super responsive. We brought steaks to grill out but when we got to the house, the grill had been blown over by the wind and was broken. We contacted the host and she had a new grill delivered from Lowe’s the very next day! We were so impressed.

The views are definitely amazing. That said, the home itself was not very clean. When you walk up you are met with trash cans with loose garbage all around and in the cans. One of the cans had the lid open and when we went to shut it we found two possums stuck in it. So we tipped it over to let them out. The blue bar stools are covered in dried food and whatever else is all over the sides of them. I did not want to sit in them. Some of the windows and a glass cabinet they have inside were covered in what looked like dog slobber. We then went to use the hot tub and it was filthy. We reached out to the host who didn’t respond until the next day. They did send someone to clean the hot tub that afternoon. I would not stay at this cabin again.

Family Vacation

Britt and her husband are amazing hosts, that have clearly put so much thought into every detail of this home and rental process. We had a 1, 2, 3, and 7 year old with us and they loved every minute! So many toys, the “playroom” in the loft, and the wrap around porch with a latched gate were an absolute hit for them. They supplied plenty of baby gates to keep the littles safe from the stairs. They even had pack-n-plays and strollers to use if needed. The entire home was wonderful, very clean and spacious, with so many thoughtful little “extras”, and a GORGEOUS view, but as a mama - the way this home accommodated the little ones made it a 10/10 for me!! Would definitely stay again.
