Week of relaxation
The description of this property was exactly right. What a beautiful view. We spent the week sitting on the porch talking, laughing, reading and just enjoying being still.
Communication was so quick. Check in was flawless. We are already looking forward to returning..

Cute cabin
The view over the U-Pick farm was outstanding. Deer would come down the hill and on to the farm every night right after dusk. The cabin was so clean and very cozy. It is a quiet area. The screened in porch that overlooks the farm was spectacular with a view of the mountains. We had our coffee out there every morning and finished the evening with dinner as well. We have found our perfect vacation spot!

LOVED!
This may have been my favorite vrbo ever. I loved getting to know franklin and bryson city, as well as the area as a whole. Right next to the ruby mines, fishing and hiking. I usually stay in remote cabins, but there was something about this place that spoke to me and it was eveb better than i imagined. So gorgeous. loved the view, loved the farm stand (peach farm) loved the people and check in was a breeze. very helpful owner. Couldnt say better things! AND the best stalked kitchen... they have an airfryer and one of those nice smoothy blenders. awesome place

Neat little cabin
Despite the lack of a game room, that some cabins sport these days, our kids really enjoyed it. There were no complaints from any of the 4. We picked peaches and grapes from the farm next door, cooked, and used the place as a hub to explore the area. Some of the folks in the neighborhood still ride horse and buggies!

Wonderful cabin! Beautiful view!
We absolutely loved this cabin! Very clean. Well-stocked kitchen. The hosts were great. The view is awesome! The screened-in porch is very spacious, and we really enjoyed our mornings out there, sipping coffee, listening to the birds and watching the deer. The fruit farm that the cabin overlooks, provides such a beautiful scene. We walked down the road to buy fresh picked peaches and blueberry syrup from the farm, to add to our breakfast. This was one of our favorite places we’ve stayed. Would definitely love to come back!

Excellent owner!
We had a very relaxing trip. The leaves were beautiful, and the weather was perfect. The cabin was clean and very well stocked. The fireplace and porch made the trip extra special. The ONLY thing I wish I had known beforehand was that the owner’s son stays in the lower level apartment. He was really quiet and I never heard or saw him, but found out only a week before arrival that he lives there. No worries, though. All was perfect and all in all it was a bit reassuring that help was close if we needed it. Property mgr did contact me once to let me know about the white policy binder which we searched for but never found. Thankfully, the owner had written departure instructions for us. Loved the u pick farm next door!!! Thank you so much, Lori, for sharing your sweet cottage with us! ❤️

The View
We picked this cabin for the view. It overlooked a U-pick peach orchard with mountains and hills all around. Every morning we had fog and got to sit with our coffee (in a screened in porch) and watch it slowly roll away. Talk about relaxing way to start our day. The cabin is charming. There is a step up in the kitchen that claimed our toes a few times. The cabin has everything you need for your stay. We picked the right place to stay for our vacation. Lori and her son Mark are wonderful hosts. I would recommend this cabin for the serenity and views and the occasional car/truck, after all it is in the country.

Stayed here with our family including a baby and toddler and absolutely loved it. The orchard next door was the icing on the cake. We plan to come back in the future. Just wish the cabin was bigger so we could bring more people next time. Lori was very responsive and friendly.

Lovely spring break in the mountains
We enjoyed our stay at this updated 2 bedroom cabin. Nice living area with a sectional, table for 6, 3 bar stools for counter seating, and desk. One bath with access thru the master bedroom closet and from the hall. Full size washer and dryer. Kitchen was stocked with coffee and cocoa pods, tea, salt and pepper, oil, etc. Plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, hand and dish soap, trash bags, and linens. Games for the kids too. Beds were comfortable. Loved the huge screened porch with a magnificent view.
The TV broke while we were there, and Mark [on-site in a downstairs unit] had a new one bought and installed in less than a day.
One warning if you're sensitive - lots of scented products in the house.

Great location and great communication from Host
We had a great stay on this place. We came all the way from Florida to spend some get away time on hills and nature. This was the best place. The house is cozy and warm and has beautiful scenic view all around the place. We went thru Highlands, Whitesides and lots of waterfall. The great Smokey is also in short drive. Had so much fun and relaxing time at this place.
