Great stay!

We had an amazing time here! The cabin was spacious and everything was just as described! The kitchen was very well stocked which is always appreciated. It's a great location, full of beauty and we loved the proximity to the waterfall trail! It was also very close to town which was convenient for groceries at Aldi or Walmart as needed. Thanks again!

Check-in was seamless! Host was very flexible and we received all necessary information prior to our arrival. House was clean and well appointed. Was equipped with everything you could possibly want or need to prepare meals. Plenty of room to ensure everyone had privacy and room to stretch out. The children in our party loved the large yard and creek. Spent many hours enjoying the outdoor experience. Firepit was a nightly event. Very nice for the whole family to enjoy the gathering together. Would recommend this house and plan to return in the future.

Fantastic location

House was better than described, and the location was phenomenal. Just minutes to everything in town, but also gave the feeling of being tucked away in the middle of the Nantahala national forest. We hope to come back and stay here again in the future.

Beautiful Getaway

Enjoyed a week with the family surrounded by the mountains of North Carolina. Franklin has always been a special place for our family to visit and really enjoyed our stay at Bartram Trail Acres Chalet. Only 5 minutes from town which was very convienent and an hour or less for activites for the family to enjoy. Would love to come back for another visit in the future.

Perfect Thanksgiving Stay

Gorgeous property with so much room to spread out. Great kitchen space with everything you need to make a big meal. Property was gorgeous and literally right next to the Wallace Branch trailhead. The hike to the waterfall was quick - gorgeous views of you keep climbing the mountain! Fire pit was a favorite and plenty of chairs (8) for the group. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms were really nice with great water pressure. No issues at all with the WiFi. Loved our time there and would definitely stay again.

Girls Getaway

We enjoyed visiting Highlands and the waterfalls. The people are very welcoming. The house was perfect for our needs. The trail beside the house was beautiful. The internet is slow but we are right beside Natanhala. I would love to come back next year.

Weekend Wedding in Franklin

My family and I headed to Franklin for a long weekend with a large group (four families) ranging in age from 2-70. The cabin had ample space for everyone to gather together for meals ad well as their own space for sleeping. The house was clean, beautifully decorated and fully stocked with all we needed. Close to hiking trails and a waterfall everyone was able to walk to. Beautiful view from front porch and large yard for the children to explore!

Hidden Gem

This is such a beautiful place with amazing views of a lush , well maintained yard. The creek running through the property is so relaxing to sit by with a good book. And the waterfall near the property is a added bonus. Will be back!!

Our Family Serene Get Away

We all arrived at 40 Cricket Lane at different times of the day and all commented on how perfect the house was for our family to come together for a a few days of good food, adventure and lots of laugher. The place met our expectations. So room, so clean and so mountain house feeling. The property is beautiful and just as described on VRBO. Hope you love your stay as much as we did.

Surprise Birthday for Mom

Wonderful home/cabin. Plenty of room for everyone, 7 of us. Beds were comfy, a big win. Kitchen was a great gathering spot. We went hiking and just spent time together at the cabin. This may become an annual trip. Recommend a few more chairs at the fire pit, and include wood for visitors.
