The view is as advertised and the house is very well stocked. The host is very responsive and had helpful tips so that we enjoyed home even more. It’s very relaxing sitting on the screened porch in the rocking chairs. We will stay again for sure.

The cabin was great only issue was finding firewood. There was no book on what was expected to do when leaving and what switches went to which lights and fans. We would definitely rent this cabin again

The Bear Den was so clean when we arrived. My adult daughter and I were both so impressed by how homey it felt. Warm and inviting. It was a rainy week while we were there and so pleasant to be in the house. Since it is pet friendly we thought there might be an odor but there wasn’t. We both enjoy cooking and were amazed by how well appointed the kitchen is. I have never stayed at a VRBO that was as well equipped. The screened porch is awesome. Such a wonderful spot to sit in nature with hot tea or coffee. The beds were comfortable too. Jenna was very helpful in getting into the house when we arrived. Apparently we didn’t read the details and were trying to enter incorrectly. She was helpful while planning our trip also. (Thank you!)There is just nothing negative to say. It was all good.

Such a sweet mountain home with comfortable beds, a cozy living room, clean bathrooms, a stocked kitchen, and an amazing view from the back porch! The driveway is super steep, but we got used to it and couldn’t beat the view it provided. Franklin is lovely and not far from many other mountain towns, waterfalls, and other adventures. We had our three kids with us (5, 9, and 11). The stairs had a latched gate, the porch was screened in, and there was plenty of space inside to play.

We stayed four weeks in July/Aug 2025 and enjoyed it immensely. Morning coffee on the porch watching the birds and enjoying the view. When family visited, there was so much to do that we stayed busy every day. Tubing, white water rafting, hiking, visiting waterfalls, shopping and just sitting on the porch. House has everything you need and the neighbors are friendly. Great stores and restaurants close by. We have already booked for next year.

Always enjoy staying here. This is the 4th time (I think) that we've chosen to stay here, because of the great location near town, while still being out in a woodsy area. Very comfortable inside and well equipped with the necessities.

Mountain Getaway Easy to get to, clean and comfortable. Needs just a little more care to Older adults in the bath room with hand rails by the shower and toilet.

Secluded Haven Very nice property with everything you need for your stay. Wonderful location, close enough to Franklin but yet secluded at the same time.
