About this property

Franklin, NC Cabin; Hot Tub; Mountain View; Starlink

  • Our 4,000 sq ft cabin on a two-acre cleared parcel boasts all the comforts of home, with a view to keep coming back for. 



    Sitting on 21 acres of mountain, our cabin is still close enough to town for shopping, restaurants and local breweries, while providing you true seclusion in a beautiful log home. The huge wrap around deck is spacious enough for the largest of families. Hiking, tubing, fishing, white water rafting, skiing, mining and much more 10-45 mins away! 



    Outdoors:   Large wrap around porch with plenty of seating. Porch is gated so children and pets are secure. The 2-acre yard has two fire pits and some games for the summer. 



    Main Floor:   Open floor plan, amazing mountain views, kitchen of champions, handmade catwalk, hand built stone fireplace. Three bedrooms (king beds), two bathrooms (one master). Living room couches pull out to one queen and one full size bed. 



    Open Loft:   Two queen beds on one side, one queen bed on the other, joined by a catwalk overlooking the living room. 



    Basement Floor:   Two master bedrooms with king beds. Pool table and foosball table. TV and games abound. Living room and sofas, no pull outs beds. Total beds: 10 In bedrooms: 5 Kings In lofts: 3 Queens In living room main floor: 1 queen pull out, 1 double pull out 



    WiFi:   Starlink has arrived! While we believe you should unplug and enjoy the mountain view...should you need to stream or work from the cabin, you can now do both. We provide a detailed information packet prior to your arrival so you can immediately get settled and feel at home. 



    However, sometimes you have questions or needs during your stay. We have a local contact available 24hrs should you need assistance. Otherwise, the cabin is "yours" for your stay and we try to remain silently there to support. You will also have the owners phone number as you communicate throughout the booking process. You will need a car to get around.

Mountain Getaway

Pleasant stay for the family. Nine and a baby. Cabin is spacious, with plenty of room for cooking and eating. Really enjoyed the hot tub on the deck. Spectacular view off the back deck. 4-5 mile drive back to Franklin, but was worth it.

Castle Ladyhawke wedding

If you are looking for a family friendly home away from home this will fill the bill. We were a family of 13 with a small dog and could not be happier with our selection of this cabin. It was a little further from the venue we were attending but well worth the drive. The Beswick’s had everything that you could ever need for entertaining 4 year old kids to 75 year old grandparents. We will be booking again for a vacation next year.

Amazing

This was exactly what the family needed. Plenty of room for the 14 of us. We kept entertained with billards, corn hole, having fires and cooking. I even talked the family into some local gem mining. A tranquil place with alot of character. I plan on going back.

Amazing

We absolutely LOVED this place. Secluded but close to town. Huge! Plenty of room for all 16 of our party! They had everything you could ever need to help it feel just like home! Plenty of hot water and great water pressure in every shower which was a must in feels like 14F weather! We all LOVED the hot tub. House was just beautiful inside and out. So thankful to have found this gem. Would love to come back for years to come! Kids loved the fuse ball table :) played cards all night and always had someone roasting by the fireplace! 10/10 would recommend 3

Beautiful cabin. The owner has everything you need. We had plenty of room for everyone to enjoy time togetheror separate. The location is private, yet close enough to town. Beautiful scenery on the drive to the cabin. You can view wildlife right from the wrap around porch.

Favorite mountain home!

Our family has had the joy of staying at this amazing home twice and both times were fantastic! There’s plenty of room to spread out while feeling cozy and welcoming at the same time. The location is perfect for quick drives to hiking trails and quaint, downtown Franklin. We also enjoyed staying home and playing outdoor games in the large backyard. Our grandchildren especially loved the hot tub!

Family Getaway

We absolutely loved this home. We had 12 adults and 2 children. Everyone was comfortable and not crowded. The pool table and foos ball were a great hit. The drive was winding and beautiful. We were able to enjoy downtown Franklin, Highlands, Glenville Lake, the national forest, thrifting all from our awesome home base.

Mac Mountain was amazing, felt like home❤️Our group ranged from 2yr to 74yr and we all enjoyed every minute. The owners are great, I can’t think of one thing needing improved upon. From the kitchen to the toys, crib to king size beds, everything well stocked! And the views, the best of NC. Thank you for the memories made, we will be back for more.

Wonderful vacation

This house was perfect for our extended family. It had everything we needed and more. If you enjoy cooking together, the kitchen is roomy and well equipped. Each couple took a night and cooked for the whole group. Besides taking in and enjoying the beautiful view from the living room and porch, there are plenty of other things to do both inside and outside. It was the perfect getaway and we plan to return next year.

The home was very well stocked, and clean. The only problem we had was the propane fireplace would not start, and the hot tub kept kicking the circuit off. Luckily my husband is an electrician, and kept the hot tib running. We had 8 adults and the space was really great. You might also mention that its best to have an AWD car to get up the driveway in your listing. All in all it was a great place and we loved it

Lots of room for our large family

I would definitely stay here again. There was lots of room for all 15 of us. The wrap-around deck was wonderful. The hot tub was used every night. Not too far from Franklin where there were lots of cute shops and good restaurants. The kitchen was well stocked with all sorts of pots, pans, dishes, plenty of silverware, etc. I highly recommend.

Great getaway spot.

We had a large group, 15 people, and this cabin accommodated us perfectly. There's plenty of room for play, game room , outdoor patio and large yard. And many bedrooms for quiet time. This was our first family vacation since COVID and we truly enjoyed having this beautiful cabin to do some bonding time in. We highly recommend it and plan on coming back again. ❤️
