We had an incredible stay at this home! It was immaculately clean and very comfortable, with spectacular views that we couldn’t get enough of. The drive up to the house was a little challenging the first time, but after that, it was straightforward—and the elongated drive doubles as a beautiful hike, which we loved. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our time here. While we wished for a large TV in the living room and a grill on the second-floor deck, these are minor suggestions that didn’t take away from the overall experience. The location is fantastic, with easy access to great trails and close proximity to Highlands and Cashiers, which made exploring the area a breeze. Overall, the home was a wonderful retreat, and we’d definitely recommend it!
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2024
The home was very spacious and clean. We've spent a lot of time in the NC mountains and have never seen a better view. The home and its surroundings are very quiet and peaceful. The home is ideally located to be able to enjoy both Franklin and Highlands. It was also convenient to many of our favorite hiking areas in the Nantahala Forest including Standing Indian and Wayah. Brett was great to work with. His warnings about the road to the house are very accurate so pay attention to his information.

House is lovely, view beautiful. Getting to it however is like taking your life in your hands. Website pic is gravel road but straight up. Makes you think the house is at the top of the hill. Description says steep gravel “road”. What it does not say is it is a minimum of a slow 20-25 minutes, due to multiple sharp, steep switchbacks, more like a mud and gravel path, which is narrow and fit for one vehicle only, full of deep ruts and some washed out areas. We were in a 4 WD. Can’t imagine transversing it in the dark. And the 9 miles to Highlands must be as the crow flies. It’s a good 35-40 minutes from driving down the path until you get to Highlands. Sorry to say(as the house is beautiful) we did not stay and had to book something else that evening for the rest of our trip. Did not feel safe on the drive up or down.
