BEST Mountain view in Franklin! *New Tiny!*

HeatherRating, 5 stars5 days ago

I booked this stay last minute, hoping for a quick escape to remind myself how big and beautiful the world is—and it delivered so much more than I expected. The views were absolutely breathtaking, the kind that make you pause and breathe a little deeper. The house itself was peaceful, well-equipped, and had everything we needed to feel comfortable and cared for. Even though we only stayed one night, it was exactly the reset I needed. I left feeling lighter, calmer, and deeply grateful. Highly recommend for anyone needing a moment to exhale.

Walnut Creek Retreat, Family & Pet Friendly Home

SherryRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

The owners were incredibly responsive and answered all our questions before our arrival. Once we stepped onto the property, we didn’t need to reach out again—every little detail had already been thoughtfully taken care of. The river that runs alongside the property adds the perfect touch of serenity, with the soothing sound of flowing water making the porch an ideal place to relax. The “man cave” in the garage is packed with games and full of charm—there’s something for everyone! And if that’s not enough, the living room features a full cabinet of board games for even more entertainment. We were drawn to the area by the Highlands Road Gem Show at 1602 Highlands Road, Franklin, NC. This public show is a real highlight in both May and July—always worth attending! Don’t miss Dry Falls—an absolute must-see! We’d definitely stay here again. This home had everything we needed for a truly lovely trip!

A gas fire-pit is positioned within a wooden table, featuring decorative glass stones that reflect the flames. The surrounding balcony offers a view of lush greenery and rolling hills, creating a serene outdoor setting for relaxation.
