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

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.

2024 Family get together 16 people

Huge cabin, beautiful in a wonderful location. Have never had a cabin as equipped as this one. It even included the laundry detergent we would need when using the washer. We have children(6) and 8 grandchildren who live in 3 different states. They all got to know their cousins and Aunts and Uncles for the 4 nights we were there. Thanks for helping our family stay together in style.

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.

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.

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.

Everything you could need

This cabin was large enough for my husband and I, all our kids and our grandkids (9 adults and 2 children). The kitchen truly has enough dishes, pots and pans and cooking utensils you could possibly need. The view from the balcony is absolutely gorgeous! We rented a pontoon boat one day and went out boating and tubing on Lake Chatuge. We also went mining for gems, shopping in downtown Franklin and of course went to the Lazy Hiker. We all had a great time.

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.

Fantastic property that is well stocked

We had a fantastic time at this house. We were in the area for graduation at WCU (about a 30 minute drive). Communications with the property owner was fantastic. It's listed as 6-bedroom home, but there are only 5 bedrooms. (three bedrooms on the main floor and two in the basement) There are TWO open loft areas with three beds, and couches in the basement. If you are counting "rooms", it's five. We have rented 8 homes through VRBO in the last 5 years. This one is the most well-stocked house we have ever stayed in. They have everything, but a well-working can opener! The coffee bar was a hit with our guests. Hot tub, grill, fire pit, all wonderful. They provided firewood which was really helpful. A porch swing would be a great addition. My only complaint is that temperatures are hard to regulate in the three stories. The basement was always cold even after closing all of the vents. The loft area was obviously a lot warmer, but fans are provided. The property looks into a mountain instead of on top of a mountain. The view is very nice. There are a couple of homes close-by than you can hear others, but it's pretty secluded. Overall, it was a very nice place to stay and we would definitely rent this house again. Do not hesitate to rent this home!!!

Beautiful cabin an area. WOW

We used the house as a base for 6 couples to ride motorcycles in the mountains. Truly a gorgeous place. The wifi is pretty decent actually as long as it isn't storming. Verizon and USCellular had no reception up there, but AT&T reportedly works pretty decent up there. The only thing I can saw that was not ideal was the last little bit once you turn onto the last short rode leading to the driveway. It is rock and pretty tricky on heavy street bikes, but not a challenge for car or truck.

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!

The pictures really don’t do this place justice. This house is beautiful and spacious! We had a wonderful time! We had eight people and honestly could have fit a ton more. This place is PERFECT for your little fur friends. They allowed our three dogs to come and it was perfect with the big yard and wrap around porch that had gates so we could keep an easy eye on everyone. The entire house was stocked (spices, laundry detergent, etc). We highly recommend and would love to return!

While we were in NC we had a serious emergency. I reached out to Victoria to let her know what was going on. She was wonderful. She stayed in touch with us. She even checked on us the next day and offered her help if we needed anything. We are beyond happy with how everything was handled. Victoria thank you for your kindness!

Family Mountain Getaway

What a wonderful time had by all at this mountain getaway. Our family enjoyed all the cabin had to offer. As a family that loves to cook, we enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen. We enjoyed hanging out by the fire pit each night and finishing it all up in the hot tub which was great after hiking. With such a close proximity to town, we enjoyed breweries and river walks too. The house was clean and had plenty of towels, sheets and blankets. When the listing says it has slow WiFi, they mean it! Hot spots were needed for anyone working remotely. Thank you for such a wonderful long weekend!

The House is beautiful, plenty of room for all 13 of us. Very well stocked with everything, clean, and comfortable. Sitting on the wraparound deck at 5:30 am, listening to the silence and breathing the good air was almost a spiritual experience… and the location of the house was perfect. So much to do, so much to see. Our family of 13 enjoyed everything immensely. Thank you for your hospitality and for sharing your beautiful home with us!
