Fun and Cozy
Had a great time in the mountains with excellent weather. Me and my fiancee stayed for our honeymoon and had a great time exploring the area. The highlands was a fun visit and seeing the main street of Franklin was the best. We definitley recommended staying here!

GREAT PLACE TO STAY
This great little cabin was the perfect place to just relax and chill for a few days. We were there for 4 nights and completely enjoyed our stay. It was quite, but yet close to restaurants and grocery stores. The host was extremely friendly and considerate. We will definitely return there again.
