I booked this for a Valentine's Day getaway with the intention of visiting the nearby towns, but the weather kept us from exploring. No problem, though; we loved staying in and relaxing at this little cottage. It was clean, very private, and has spectacular views from nearly every window. It's solidly constructed and very well insulated, so it was comfortable and quiet through the cold, wind, and rain we encountered during our stay. The host was very friendly and helpful. Definitely worth the trip - we loved this little place!

Perfection Cottage for 2 with Mountain View’s!

What an adorable little cabin! We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Franklin Cottage! Perfectly secluded in the mountains if you any to unplug and get away but also not too far from towns like Franklin or the cute downtown of Cashiers. We loved meals on the back deck with views of the mountains. Would have been even better if there was a hot tub on the deck. Our dogs loved being able to run and go for walks leash-free. The cottage had pretty much everything we needed for the weekend except for a grill. Jennifer (the host) had great communication, left us a sweet welcome card and flowers. She even allowed us to check in early without issue. We would definitely stay here again!
