Welcoming and cozy cabin

We loved our stay at this cabin. The property is very clean and has lots of little touches that make it homely and welcoming. The sound of the creek next to the cabin immerses you in nature. It is well connected to US Route 33, but far enough so you don't hear the sound of cars. Perfect getaway to disconnect and be in nature.

Great Stay in Quiet Cabin next to Stream

Very nice clean cabin set back from main roads. Quiet with the only the sound of the small stream next to cabin. Set back from main road about a mile, but easy access.

Perfect getaway

Love the location nestled in the woods, the quiet brook burbling past the firepit, the homey pinewood interior, the fully stocked kitchen, the delicious jam and cookies gift. We stayed two nights while climbing Nelson Rocks and wish we had stayed longer. Thanks so much for your hospitality...if I owned a cabin like that, I'd never leave!

This was a short get away just to relax. We couldn't believe how thoughtful our host was. She thought of everything, and I do mean everything! We had a wonderful stay and were very appreciative of how nice the cabin is. We loved it and will be booking again in the future! Perfect place to just go and be quiet.

The Coziest Cabin!

My husband and I stayed here for my birthday / Valentines Day. It was the perfect little cozy getaway from the moment we walked in the doors! Dinah had a fire going for us so it was already nice and warm, the cabin was super clean and looked just like the pictures if not better! Kitchen was stocked with utensils and cookware and made cooking our meals a breeze. No service but the WiFi was fast and easy to connect to. Absolutely zero complaints, we both loved it and will be coming back!

Welcoming Cabin

The log cabin is very welcoming, front porch decorated with flowers and ferns, extra blankets and throws for cold nights-even on the rocking chair and swinging bench on the porch. It is in the hills, very quiet with a small creek runnning along the side of the house. Franklin is not a touristy town but we ate at 3 good restaurants and the closest grocery store is surprisingly big, everyting you need. Overall a very good, restful vacation.

Another peaceful and fun stay

We love the place. This was our second time at the cabin, so we knew what to expect. The first time we were there was in the summer when everything outside was green. This time we hoped for snow, but it rained all but one day. So we stayed indoors quite a bit, enjoying the popping sound of the fireplace. We are looking forward to returning when the weather warms up.

Anniversary Getaway

My wife and I stayed the weekend for an anniversary getaway. The cabin was perfect! It had everything we needed and was so cozy and comfortable. My wife especially enjoyed the old cast iron tub! We enjoyed exploring and off-roading with our Jeep durning the day, and cooking amazing meals together at night. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment. Dianh was a wonderful host and very accommodating. We would definitely like to come back for another stay at some point.

Amazing as Always

Just as clean, cozy, and comfortable as it was two years ago. We did a little more cooking inside than anticipated due to the weather, but found everything we needed, from a measuring cup to a little aluminum foil and plastic wrap. It really does feel like home while you are here.
