We had a fabulous time in the mountains of Franklin and would absolutely stay here again. The road can feel treacherous for someone not used to it—my husband was comfortable driving it, but I definitely was not. That said, the outdoor space and the spectacular views were completely worth the drive. We were genuinely disappointed to leave and look forward to coming back next year!

Relaxation

This cabin is close to town but private and quiet. Enjoyed the large deck while grilling and watching the birds, fireflies and even a little bat at night. Wonderful cabin that we loved so much we booked another trip back in March!

Amazing cabin, fantastic deck view, really cool inside

This was a fantastic cabin, can't say enough about how nice it is. Very clean, well equipped, love the layout and furniture and all the attention to detail inside. Amazing view from the deck outside, our family loved hanging out on it in the morning and evening after rafting and hiking. You won't be disappointed!!!

Great view

We had a wonderful stay at Black Bear cabin. It was clean and had everything that we needed except an ironing board/iron(which we purchased/left the board there). Close to everywhere we wanted to go. My only suggestion is that you mention the need for All wheel/4 wheel drive to get there as the road is steep, dirt/gravel with sharp turns. We would rent again!!

Beautiful Views!

The home had huge picture windows that over-looked a beautiful mountain range. The photos online do not do it justice. Additionally, the beds were comfy, and the entire house was cozy. However -- bring your own wine opener, chip clips, etc. as they are not included in the home.

Birthday Getaway

Great location, view and total solitude. Long winding gravel road to the property. Be prepared to do a 5 to 10 pt turn around at the home as it is a small area. You also need to make sure to bring your own paper products, as we found out the hard way extra TP was not provided. But overall all this is a great place to stay and the view is awesome.

Black Bear Cabin at Fox Mountain

Amazing, quiet and comfortable cabin up, up, up a mountain. Stunning views of the Smokies and close to Franklin. Birds galore. Owners have the kitchen well stocked with dishes, cookware and basic spices. Gas fire outside was delightful to keep the morning and evening chill at bay. 4 WD vehicle would be best especially if it is raining. Steep hill that neighbors and others seem to enjoy digging up making it a bumpy ride.

Family weekend

House was beautiful, perfect location, pristine view. I think the problem I had was housekeeping. Trash was left in the house, dirty dishes in the dishwasher ( which was broken/ my husband fixed it). Key lock batteries died, had to wait on someone from management to give me the code for the house keys

Perfect mountain cabin

Absolutely beautiful home! Very clean, well equipped cabin. Kitchen had everything we needed, quality appliances, cookware, dishes, etc. Rooms were spacious, tastefully decorated, and comfortable. Sunsets from deck were amazing. Quiet neighborhood. Would book again hands down and discontinue search for anything finer. I would recommend nothing larger than a crossover vehicle or small pickup to turn around in driveway. There is certainly not enough room to turn an extended cab truck, Expedition, or long wheel base vehicle around safely on parking pad. Road to cabin is well maintained gravel.

Great views

The cabin was clean and had amazing views! We definitely didn't want to leave. We spent a lot of time on the deck. Wood burning fireplace was great. The kitchen was well suppied with pots/pans. The parking area can get tight if you're trying to turn around in a large truck/vehicle. The one lane road going to the cabin is steep in some areas with loose gravel. Luckily we never had anyone going up/down the road when we were. The king size bed was a little hard for our liking. Be careful the main door locks automatically, so keep your door code on you at all times! We loved our stay and would definitely stay again.

Highly Recommend This Adorable Homey Cabin!!

This mountain top cabin is charmingly decorated and thoughtfully appointed - it really does have it all! It was easy to find and conveniently located to town. The gravel road to the house took us 5 minutes. There are several blind curves and hairpin turns. The gravel is rough and if you have a low riding sports car you might not like it. The driveway pad will take a little practice, but we were able to do a 3 point turn with our Tahoe. We found it very clean. There were hooks beside each door, extra blankets, lots of drawer and closet space (with hangers). We recommend you do a thorough walk-through to discover everything that makes this cabin so comfortable and special! The kitchen had plenty of cookware, mixing bowls, dishes, flatware, and every kind of cooking utensil. The appliances are full size, there is a toaster, blender, and both kinds of coffeemakers. The water is clean tasting, so just bring your own refillable bottle. The deck was so lovely every time of day. Nothing but a picture perfect view. A good portion of it is covered so you can enjoy being outside even if it is raining. The wifi is really quick, our cell service was also strong at the house. The TV system has lots of options and there is a dvd player. The cabin has a great location - just 10 minutes to 2 large grocery stores, gas stations and great local restaurants. There is plenty for every activity level within less than an hour's drive each way. This is one of the hidden gems in Franklin!

Beautiful views. Loved exploring the area. Very clean, easy check in. The road in is bumpy but solid. We had a full size truck and were able to do a point turn to turn around. You can also go up past the house to turn around.

Great getaway with a wonderful sunset view. Road access is a little tricky when you meet oncoming traffic, but I guess locals are used to it.
