Clean house, looks brand new inside and out. Beds are very comfy, kitchen is stocked with anything you need to cook, grill, or bake with. The drive out to the house is a few miles from Franklin but easy access. We grew up in the NC mountains so the road wasn’t a big deal, but the driveway is gravel and pretty steep. Saw a gray fox, many deer, and other wildlife. Highly recommend the property.
