"Everything was great. The cabin was very cozy, clean, quiet and peaceful, the kind of place you don't want to leave once you get there. The host has thought of everything to welcome you and make your stay pleasant and memorable. I look forward to returning soon. Thank you Carman AAA"

Creekside in the Smoky Mtns. has a rejuvenating quality. Something we all need!

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful scenery right from the porch swing. We ate breakfast every morning on the deck overlooking the creek and gorgeous mountain and meadow scenery. Kitchen was well stocked with all cooking essentials. Bed comfy, shower warm. Hosts were so helpful with things to see and do. We will be back next year and years after. We loved every minute!"

Mountain Valley Inn Dillard

8/10 Good

"This place is a bit rough. But the excellent staff makes up for a lot. We had a bit of a problem and they were so very helpful for us - way beyond most places, so we’re very grateful!"

Gorgeous home where modern luxury meets mountain beauty. Privacy & Mountain View

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about this place was perfect… the decor, the location, and the overall house its self. The only thing I would suggest is the water pressure needs some work. But other than that it was a great place and would highly highly recommend it to anyone."

"Falling Water" Perfect for families!

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful little creek that runs along the home is perfect for playing. The fenced in backyard was a major plus for our dogs to play also. There are games inside that my kids enjoyed. Would definitely recommend to anyone. It was the perfect little getaway that was close to town."

Sound of Rushing RAPIDS/ Private wooded location/Hiking Trail/Hot Tub

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay. It was clean, and anything we needed was 10 mins. away. The cabin was even better than I thought it would be. It's very private and cabin has enough space for the whole family. Listening to the river/falls on the back porch was amazing! It was exactly what I needed for a quiet and calm vacation away. We will definitely go again. "

Spacious 4-bedroom river front cabin with WiFi, Game Room & Hot Tub for 15

10/10 Excellent

"Would consider renting again. En-suite for every bedroom was one of the biggest benefits."

Cozy Pet Friendly Mountain Log Cabin in the Smokies with Deck and fire pit.

8/10 Good

"We loved sitting on the screened porch and how close it was getting into Franklin. I was a bit disappointed with the pillows and we didn't use the AC in the bedroom because it had mold in the vents. I am certain that you would fix these issues if you knew about them so that is why I am letting you know"
