Beautiful area. House was a log cabin and was older. Four people looking for a quaint place to stay this is it. The bedding was firm but comfortable. The surrounding area was very quiet and restful. The house is close to several Jim mining activities. Downtown FrNklin was wonderful. We were only here for two short days and we only went out to eat on two occasions. Both restaurants were great. It appears that this house had not been stayed in recently and once we entered the house, we noticed that itâs been shut up for a while as you could smell the fireplace. In most times that I have stayed in that is affiliated with VRBO have been cleaned and freshened, even though they had been closed up. There was dirt and dead bugs around the baseboard in one bathroom and in another the tub had stains however, that may have been from past issues with water stains. Outside on the front porch there are two swings one a glider and the other one hangs. The hanging swing had bird droppings present. There was dirt and dead leaves branches on the porch. In the front yard the weeds were growing and in the center was a rocking chair. Along the side, where the trashcan set a small, dead tree look like it had been there for some time. The driveway getting into this house is very steep. Overall, this place is average.
Simple little cabin donât need much just place to lay down. Came to visit for long weekend and this place was pretty much middle of all the trips we had somewhat planed to go. If ever have a chance to come back out this ways will definitely consider coming back.
The cabin was great. Loved the history of the house, and Franklin and all the things to do. We chased waterfalls in Bryson City and Highland as well as the one the owners of the house recommended. Would stay there again.
Clean, rustic, real cabin, great views, nice and quiet area, comfy beds, great location, would love to stay here again! Next time, we will stay longer!! Maybe in the fall when leaves are changing. A beautiful view!!
We have been asking for someone to please follow up with us but the response was it was âescalated to upper managementâ. This was day before yesterday. Disappointed that no one has followed up yet. Things that need to be addressed.
1. No AC was on when we arrived. House was hot and smelled of dog. Took hours to cool off. It should be listed that there is only a kitchen window ac unit so that customers can decide whether to change the summer heat.
2. Home was not cleaned. Obvious hair and bugs in the showers and on the floor.
3. Shower in back is broken. Knob just fell off when turned.
4. Rodent feces present in the drawers, kitchen cabinets, and bathrooms.
5. Trash under furniture.
6. When we arrived we had to text you to be able to access the third room. No info was made available for this prior to our arrival.
6. When I initially text, your response was that someone would contact us in the morning which is unsatisfactory bc we had guests that would not have had a place to sleep had I not persisted.
7. TV in room to the left down the hall - volume doesn't seems to go down.
8. Dining room chairs are glued and stapled together as of someone tried to repair them. I sat down in one only once and one of the chairs broke.
Obviously we were stuck with this home for the rest of our stay but I would like to formally be addressed with these concerns as I'm sure VRBO, Vacasa, and the home owner would find this situation uncomfortable and unacceptable.
