Family Weekend
5/5 Overall a great stay! The house was perfect for our needs. The games and hot tub were enjoyed by all. The driveway was well marked which was appreciated in the dark. Close enough to Franklin but far enough out as well. Cell service was reliable and internet in the house was good. The kitchen has everything you need. We will definitely keep this place in mind for next year.

Fun for the whole family
5/5 This was our second time coming and I can't wait to be able to come back! Everyone had such a great time playing all the games, enjoying the hot tub, playing pool. I'm really impressed with the added touches like cotton candy machine and s'mores, as well as wood in the wood shed!
They definitely go over and beyond to make sure you have everything that you need and that the place is fully stocked.
Beautiful mountain stay!
5/5 We came to ride the Polar Express but spent most of our time in the cabin with my parents, my husband and our children. Between the hot tub, cotton candy machine, snow cone maker and games and toys we had the best time! The highlight was the sprinkling of snow flurries we saw when we first arrived. Thanks for helping us make beautiful memories!
