Wild Bills Riverfront Escape - Garden hot tub
Beautiful 2 bedroom/ 2 bath Riverfront Cabin with Garden type hot tub in Master Bedroom .Priceless Huge Covered Porch with gas grill overlooking the little Tennessee River in Franklin N.C. Excellent High-Speed Internet. Comfy King Beds. Loaded Full Kitchen. Living area has 2 plush leather recliners and a beautiful new leather type couch to match. Great spot to relax after some fishing or gem mining. Fish from the back yard. Beautiful River views from every angle. Fire pit for night fires and star watching. Kayaks are available to rent. Wild Bills is in a great location to enjoy Franklin and the surrounding Smoky Mountain Area. Easy access for any vehicle. Cabin has Central Heat and Air/ Ceiling fans throughout. Washer/ Dryer. This cabin is a dream cabin. The location is semi- private, not remote. Where can you find a porch this big overlooking the beautiful Little Tennessee River in the Mountains? and did I mention Master Suite jetted garden Tub?? The Covered porch will be such a highlight. You can view this amazing river change with the seasons. The Mountains are calling you.
