Great place

The property was as described and very nice. It is a cabin in the woods, and it’s an hour and a half from just about everything but Franklin, NC. We enjoyed our stay and prefer a cabin type environment.

Great cabin crew trip

Enjoyed our stay. We wished the common area would have been a little larger. For 11 people it was a little snug but we enjoyed our time and it wasn’t a big issue. Kitchen was well stocked. Beds / mattresses could use a refresher for comfort. Would stay again.

Beautiful cabin and setting. Lots of space. Easy access. Everything we needed was there. High chair and baby gates were unexpected bonuses. Beds were comfortable. Such a pretty view especially with the leaves this week! Wish we could have stayed longer and hope to return!

Excellent for unwinding!

We loved our stay at the Fireman's Dream! You can tell that a lot of thought has gone into making sure that the cabin has most thing you need during stay there (appliances, utensils, linens, etc.), and the quietness of the surrounding area made this cabin even more the retreat we were looking for. The hot tub is quite the treat, and as dog owners, the added detail of having gates on the deck upstairs was incredible, as that helped us feel safe about letting the dogs roam around on the porch as well! All in all, our trip was awesome and we are definitely going to be renting this cabin again!

Great Cabin Great Location did I say Great Cabin

What a wonderful place and fantastic location. House has an excellent kitchen and well furnished rooms. The hardest part is deciding if you want to be on the porches, hot tub, at the fire-pit or in the great room. Wallace and Linda are fantastic to work with. We spent 4 days at the house on a motorcycle adventure, all law enforcement, and as much as it hurts to say, this fireman did it right!!!! LOL, Thanks again, fantastic place, we will be back........

Great Cabin! Great Getaway! Great Vacation!

Fireman's Dream is the perfect cabin for the perfect getaway! Upon entry, our breath was taken away by the rustic beauty of this cabin. To our amazement, the cabin was stocked with everything you could need. The location is so very peaceful, a great escape from the hustle and bustle of our everyday world! Give Fireman's Dream a try. You will thank the Nixs' for sharing their perfect home. Thank you for our girl's family vacation! Janet, Teresa, Debbie, Kelsie, and Jessica P.S. Susie and Sally(aka the dogs) loved their vacation cabin too!

Fireman’s Dream - A Dream Come True

We absolutely loved our stay at Fireman’s Dream. Everything was there and then some. We did not have to worry about buying very little thing on the first night, which made our long trip up much earlier than anticipated. Love the fire pit! Spent a lot of time around that gem:) House is beautifully appointed and is close enough to all the area attractions. The driveway up to the house is awesome! Last but not least the Nix’s were so easy to work with; they were awesome! Great trip all around... Oh, they are doggie friendly too! However, if you have no dogs you would never know any had been there. Thank again for a great stay!

Wedding stay

The Fireman’s Dream cabin was everything advertised and more. My daughter chose to get married in Franklin NC so we chose the Fireman’s Dream. It is very large and room for the entire family. It’s an amazing place and my daughter loved the cabin and all the amenities provided. Great thumbs up
