Upon arrival the house was very clean and inviting. The furniture was very comfortable especially the bed. We loved the deck space , watching the birds. The front porch was a great spot to sit and rock. The deer visited every day. The property was very convenient to grocery store and downtown yet very relaxing. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need. We loved our time here and look forward to returning soon.

Our favorite VRBO

This is our 2nd or 3rd time we have stayed here. We absolutely love this place. It feels just like home when we walk in the door. The location is close to family and friends nearby and also close to anything we want to do on our visits. We can’t wait to come back and hopefully this house is available.

Great country retreat

The house was wonderful and quiet. We saw a family of deer the first night. The kitchen was well stocked and plenty of cookware. We brought our two dogs and found a great park for a walk. The towns people were friendly and the overall spirit of the town was loving and family oriented. We would definitely live to stay again. Thank you.

Family Time

Thank you for sharing your home. This is the third year we have enjoyed your lovely home. It has anything you may need in the kitchen and the beds are really comfortable. I enjoyed watching the birds and deer off the back porch. The drive is easy to get in and out of. The location is off enough to be quiet but close enough to local stores if you should need to get something you may have forgotten. Looking forward to next year's trip.

Pre-Thanksgiving getaway with family

Our family enjoyed our stay in the mountains. The house is easy to navigate to yet nicely hidden in the woods with excellent views from the back balcony. We saw several deer during our stay. Kitchen is well equipped and an Ingles is just up the road. The main living space is roomy and master bedroom and bathroom are large. We had plenty of hot water and two bathrooms is great with teenagers. The DSL Internet was good and Verizon cellular was surprising fast, which was great for remote work. The stand-alone wood fireplace was so easy to use and put out a lot of heat. Just minutes from downtown Franklin and easy access to major roads. We would stay here again.

5/5 Stars – An Unforgettable North Carolina Getaway!We had an absolute blast during our stay! The house was immaculate upon arrival, and the views were nothing short of breathtaking. We really appreciated all the extra supplies provided to keep everyone entertained—it was such a thoughtful touch that kept boredom completely at bay.The highlight for our family was definitely the wildlife! We saw deer, raccoons, and even a pair of skunks wandering around. My daughter was mostly impressed by the bird houses and feeders on the back porch. She loves wild birds (she works at a wild bird store). She enjoyed watching the mom and dad feeding the babies in the bird house.Best of all, my kids got to see fireflies for the very first time, which made the trip truly magical. We couldn't have asked for a better stay and would love to return!

This is a beautiful home. Plenty of space. Close enough to Franklin to go into town and not feel like you have been in the car all day. We will stay here again.
