Such a gorgeous setting! This place was a dream! We appreciate how dog-friendly it was. The small fenced area behind the house, enclosed deck, and doggie bag station really made traveling with our 2 small dogs easier. The cabin was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed.

The most welcoming VRBO we have ever stayed in. Everyone in our party ( adults, teens, preteens, pets) LOVED it. Everything was of very good quality( comfy beds, kitchen utensils) and thought of (house stocked with kitchen and bathroom essentials). Gorgeous and serene surroundings. Owners were very responsive and welcoming. Highly recommend!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this mountain house! From the moment we arrived on Thursday until we left on Sunday, we never once felt the need to leave the property. The house was comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing family getaway.The highlight was definitely the creek. Our kids spent hours playing in the water, exploring, and making memories all weekend long. It was the perfect setup for families who want their children to unplug and enjoy nature.The peaceful surroundings, beautiful scenery, and sounds of the creek made it easy to relax and enjoy quality time together. This was exactly the kind of mountain retreat we were looking for, and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with plenty of outdoor fun right outside the door!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bhakti Manor Creekside Home. The host, Debra was very responsive from the initial reservation, on the lead-up to check in, and during our stay. The house was stocked well and fully served our needs. The property was very peaceful and private. The sound of the creek while relaxing on the porches was perfect. The proximity to Franklin was very convenient. We highly suggest staying!!

Private and relaxing

The stream really set the mood for relaxation. It's very private with no other homes visible and the layout is wonderful for a family. Porches are made for just chilling and the stream is perfect for kids along with the campfire circle beside the stream The owner was very accommodating and a pleasure to talk to. We highly recommend this home

We absolutely loves this home and property! The dog friendliness of the property was one thing we absolutely loved! The gated wrap around second floor porch leads to a fenced in area at the back which makes letting the dogs be "free" so much easier than having to take them downstairs all of the time. The property and house are clean, the drive was easy peasy, and the response from the owners/manager was very quick any time I had a question. 10/10 would recommend!
