What a View

A long winding drive up the mountain, but worth the drive once you get to the top! We spent 10 nights here and loved each one! Hated to leave, but we enjoyed our time and the memories made here. Beautiful place and views are fantastic. As others have said, pictures don't truly show the beauty of this place. Loved every minute here!

Awesome Experience

The view is even better than the photos. We spent a lot of time on the porch enjoying the changing light and leaves. The night sky was incredible. We've rarely seen that many stars. The house was spacious and clean. Again, awesome experience.

Beautiful home.

Beautifully kept home clean and well equipped. View is lovely, outside amenities are great we enjoyed the fire pit and the grill was a five burner cast iron with a gas burner on the side. We’re able to cook everything. Would likely rent again.

Beautiful stay

Was a gorgeous view picture didnt do it justice, house was clean and stocked. Only things, ground floor shower didnt seem to get hot water. Front door deck seemed to have a few hives. One in the fan/lamp, lots of bees burrowing in hanging bench. Few in corner. Made it a bit harder to enjoy during day.

Mountain Retreat

Quiet, private, isolated but close enough to town. Loved the view and nature while on the front porch. Very comfortable accommodation, beds and living room. We brought our firestick for the tv and the satellite internet proved able with no issues even on a rainy day. The owner is very accessible and responsive. The gravel road up can be a little daunting but our front wheel drive sedan had no trouble even when the drive was wet. It is also good for a relaxing walk. Thank you Bruce for a super stay!

Year end recharge and next year planning

Every year my wife and I go away for 3-4 days at the end of the year to reflect on the year ending and to plan on the year coming. This is a perfect place for that contemplation. I would repeat everything in the previous views - beautiful, isolated loaction, expansive hillside views, well equipped and spotlessly clean. My only suggestion for an improvement would be the showers - downstairs temperature control is tricky, and upstairs flow is poor - but both are workable. For those that like eating out, make sure you go to Cafe Rel in Franklin- it looks out of place at the Hot Spot gas station but looks can be deceptive - food is fabulous but no reservations and its cash only.

Mountain getaway

My husband and I were very pleased with this beautiful home. Location was very convenient for exploring Macon County, and there is so much to see and do there. The views from the porch were too beautiful to describe - best of the Smokies we have had from multiple rentals. Well appointed kitchen for someone who cooks every day, quality surfaces, appliances and cookware- very efficient. We loved the lay out/floor plan. Very comfortable bed and nice linens. Great deck furniture! Owner was very responsive and checking in and out was easy. We would highly recommend this beautiful and loved home to anyone, and hope we can return.

Relaxing

This is our 2nd time staying and check in, communication, and cleanness was great. Love the views and just far enough out to get away and relax but not so far it takes forever to get to town. Franklin is a great town and Bryson City and the Smokies are just down the road. A little over a hour away is a couple more forest to just drive or hike.
