Waterfront Cabin Franklin Area with View Sleeps 7

A family cabin on the creek. Greatest View of 1000' of creekfront, (trout hole too) privacy and mountain backdrop. Waterfront - creekfront home on 4 acres with room to roam. (2 kept all natural). Hiking and waterfalls all around like Appalachian trail, Bartrum trail... Dry Falls etc. Awesome spot. The 5-star reviews are because of the creek, the view, the central location and cabin but if your idea of fun is a fancy 5-star hotel then go to the next property please because we offer a family Cabin (nothing fancy) in the best spot and the rest is up to you. This is a PERFECT place to take the kids and/ or grandparents to hang out. I have a full itinerary to share to help you fill a week of activities. Scaly Mountain, Highlands Aerial Park and zip Lining, Primitive Outback Kayaking, Jackson Hole Gem Mining, Guided Trout Stream Fishing, Dry Falls Waterfall, old School Knife Cutlery, Bartram Trail, Appalachin Trail, Biltmore Estate (Asheville), great Smokey Mountain Railroad, Natahal Outdoor Center. Fantastic Places to Eat Haywood Smokehouse, Root & Barrell, Fat Buddies BBQ, Cupboard Cafe, Cafe Rel. The driveway is on the same level as the entry to front door so easy access. In back step go down to creek.. Beautiful Creek Side Home with wood burning fireplace beautiful Australian cypress wood floors, and a flowing creek just below the master and main deck. King, Queen, Full and 2 x Twins. Located on 4 acres. Great little trout fishing hole. Take a plunge or wade in the creek (not deep). Just minutes to Franklin NC and Dillard and Clayton GA. Gem mining, Kayak, zip line, hike, tube, train, NOC, Biltmore, all easy day trips. Great little shallow creek area for children to play to ankles or to pan for gems. Loads for the kids to do with Gem mining sites all around town, cable course, waterfalls, kayaking, old main street Franklin. Plenty to do with kayaking and rafting and gem mining all nearby. Great places to eat for every taste. Come enjoy Franklin, Otto, Dillsborogh areas of North Carolina and make this a special spot. We provide fresh towles, sheets, pillows etc. If you need a special accommodation please reach out directly and we will work out whatever your need.

New Years getaway
Property was as described and clean. Stocked with cookware, utensils, etc. The view of the creek was so picturesque and we enjoyed a bonfire outside even if it was 30 degrees! Inside wood burning fireplace and outside fire pit were amazing! House is easily accessible from main roads. Several grocery stores within 15 minutes. The boys fished everyday and caught small trout. We enjoyed hikes in Highlands, NC and very close Mud Creek Falls. We made a day trip out of Tallulah Gorge State Park and Helen, GA. Good access to so many outdoor activities. Would recommend to 1-2 families as there is plenty of room.

Thanksgiving family trip - charming and pleasant
We brought our “city kids” and suburban living elderly parents here for Thanksgiving and we all had a great time! The place was clean, the kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment (first rental I have stayed where the knives were sharp and can chop all the veggies and meats!!), and the surrounding area was beautiful! Communication with the owner was easy and responsive! The location is a convenient drive from the Atlanta area which is great. But still close to the national forests for nature, hikes, and fire pit s’mores. We are from the Chicago area and found the temperature in the house to be fine and cozy. Having the outdoor fire pit near the creek was a pleasant way to while away the evenings with family!

When I think of North Carolina, this is it! Beautiful home and beautiful creek with trees all around. Access is also easy, with good roads and mountain valley views along the way. Awesome!

Thank you from our family!
North Carolina is often a destination for our family. Our stay was made even more special at this creekside cabin. Our family was able to play in the creek, fish, kayak, make s'mores, grill out and enjoy nature in a tucked away retreat that offered privacy. It was quiet and peaceful. Our vacation was hard to leave thanks to this little piece of heaven. Thank you Scott for being a wonderful host and trusting us with your special spot which will forever be one of ours. Memories made!!!! Mark, Jodi, Owen and Ollie

Quality Family Time and Fun For All
We had the most magical time at this tranquil mountain house. A comfortable walk for all ages down to the river. Kids enjoy the short and safe kayak downstream while we can relax and stare at the beauty from the massive porch with rocking chairs. We really enjoyed all the quality time together playing games, cooking dinners and having firepit evenings while kids catch fireflies. The stars are incredible here late night. Scott is incredibly helpful and informative about the area, history of this home and things to do nearby. We will definitely make this a return trip!

Family Thanksgiving 2022
Very nice house , very clean and had everything we needed. The owner Scott was very nice and accommodating also. The heat was on when we arrived which made the house very nice and warm. My grandsons loved the creek and having a campfire at night while roasting marshmallows. Lots of family memories made. Will definitely be back.

Aussie Invasion!!!
So wonderful to be able to play with our Australian grandkids for the first time in 3 years! (Thanks, COVID!) We last visited in person in 2019, and they are now 7 and 9 and naturally sooo much bigger.... As we stayed in the "cabin" over July 4th weekend, the girls learned about why we Americans celebrate on that day --and had a great time watching the parade in Franklin, eating all the special junk food there, and later the sparklers and bottle rockets and cookout by the fire pit back at home. Of course, the main attraction was the creek and kayaks. And the chess board. Hard to get them away from chess to go in the creek, then hard to get them out of the creek for dinner.... There was a lot of reading going on, and some interesting geography lessons and discussions thanks to the world map and globe in the dining room. What a great idea! Monopoly and Clue practically took over the living room. Best of all (for me, Grandma) was NO TV was ever turned on!! We did manage to get away a couple of days for other adventures: the waterfall loop and lunch in Highlands, rafting on the Nantahala (reprise of 1986 trip with our then 9-year-old daughter --still great!) and a couple of trail hikes. Son-in-law got away for a day of fly fishing instruction and quiet time. All-in-all this stay was a great solution for everyone to get together finally. Weather was perfect (warm days, cool evenings, some rain at night, beautiful foggy mornings to have coffee on the deck.)

Lovely, quiet respite
This house was in a great location. Day trips to Highlands, Sylva, Dillsboro, Franklin, Cherokee were all easy to access and be back before dark. The house had a beautiful view from the porches. The creek flows right through the yard. You are in the country and it is quiet, and serene. We enjoyed fishing , painting, or just watching the water go by. There are short and beautiful hikes nearby. Plus lots of breweries and places to eat. The house had all that we needed. Scott was very helpful. It is his family home and you can tell he loves this special place.
