Cabin Rentals Reviews for Log Home Rental in Smoky Mountains with Phenomenal View & Hot Tub! in FranklinAugust 01, 2009Owner-Supplied TestimonialWhat an incredible opportunity to stay in such a lovely home for an entire month! A view of the mountains desired by many, seen by few. We felt very spoiled to experience our trial run for our "empty nesting" soon to come...mid-August. The weather was lovely, un-seasonable cold weather 48-52 degrees on the deck for almost a week in the morning. Loved watching the hummingbirds daily, many species of birds, lots of cooking out on the grill, and total relaxation!! We both teach (Frank/college - me/kindergarten) Welcomed the break!! IMMENSLY!Surprise visit from our 2 sons for 4 days... also with our daughter, son-in-law, and 1 year old granddaughter. LOVED: Sunset Restaurant, Stamey's, Frog & Owl, Creekside Cafe, new library, Fatz, and Rabun Gap flea market. Thank you for an experience we will not soon forget! June 13, 2009Owner-Supplied TestimonialThanks for the use of the cabin. We had a great time despite a few obstacles! Rained a few days but still managed to get it all in! Hiked, horseback (Chunky gal Stables were awesome), Rafting - NOC was good-the one in Dillsboro was PERFECT with little kids- mine are 5&6 - they loved it! Gem mining, waterfalls (Bridal Veil & Glen Falls - but be careful - real slippery - our dog fell down Glen Falls! Ghost Town in the Sky was fun - the chairlift up is the highlight for adults but littler kids will enjoy it - mine did! We didn't care for Fat Buddies BBQ- skimpy portions/high prices but we found the local BBQs much better - Cash's was good by the Whistle Stop Mall. Last 2 days had sick kids but overall had an awesome time! Thanks again. May 18, 2009Owner-Supplied Testimonial
Dear Chris and Theresa, April 05, 2009Owner-Supplied TestimonialThank you!! We thoroughly enjoyed our all too short stay at your lovely cabin. We discovered a couple of great nearby hiking trails and family conversation. We've promised ourselves that we need to come up here more frequently and enjoy all of the mountain seasons. Thank you again, Chris & Theresa, for sharing your cabin with us. November 28, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialChris & Theresa- Best mountain view! Like a postcard! Really enjoyed our R&R in your cozy cabin. Thanks for a wonderful week! November 04, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe enjoyed our stay at your beautiful cabin. We celebrated our 12th anniversary here. We loved the views. The leaves were at their peak. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck while looking out at the mountains. We loved the peace and quiet. It was very relaxing. It was like we were the only people around. We grilled on the grill every night for supper and ended our day with a fire in the fireplace. Thanks for sharing your cabin with us. August 31, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialFirst, let me thank you again for accommodating our stay on short notice. The cabin was everything we hoped for and the view from the porch is so relaxing. Tropical storm Fay followed us from Florida, which made it rainy for a few days, but the weekend weather was perfect. Roger spent two days learning to kayak with the NOC and both of us enjoyed the hummingbirds, reading and just relaxing. Hope we can return again. August 24, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe thoroughly enjoyed staying in your cabin. It is just what we anticipated and more. Thanks for arranging the perfect weather and keeping “Fay” away so we didn’t have to cancel our plans! This area is so awesome – no wonder we met so many people from Florida. We caught ourselves looking at some realty magazines! Thank you again for everything. We will be back! August 09, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialThanks for letting us stay at your great cabin. We had a great time. August 02, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialThank you so much for some much needed R&R. We enjoyed our stay. Hummingbirds were everywhere! Beautiful dark butterflies, the occasional turkeys, and even a few groundhogs! We loved the setup of the house! I hope that we can visit again next year. July 19, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe had a wonderful time and truly appreciate the use of your beautiful cabin. We saw a family of wild turkeys, a deer, bats, fireflies, and the hummingbirds here at Hidden Acres. Every day was an adventure exploring the region and finding great places to visit and sights to see. Went rafting on the Ocoee – out 64 back on 19-28. Took a ride out Wahay Road-SR1310 to the Appalachian Trail. 2 Visits to Asheville with the kids – The kids (19 &21) loved our time here. Thanks Chris & Theresa July 11, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialThank you so much for letting us use your cabin. It was a very relaxing week. Our 7 year old loved everything from gem mining, canoeing down the Little Tenn. We were visiting friends who live in Franklin and they were in awe of the view. July 04, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialThank you for the use of your cabin. The scenery from the back porch was beautiful. We had a great time whitewater rafting (52 degree water!), gem mining, Dollywood, jet boat trip on Lake Fontana, traveling down many windy roads, singin in the Smokies with the Inspirations (great gospel music!), seeing the wild turkeys on our walks here (it is a lot easier going down than coming back up!!) It was a great time to relax!! The kids loved Fat Buddies – they have great ribs! June 27, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe had a very pleasant week at the cabin! We spent our days sightseeing and mining for gems. We went to Rose Creek mines and found quite a lot in the emerald, sapphire, & ruby buckets along with one mega bucket. We did quite a bit of asking about Mason & Sheffield mines only to discover Rose Creek really was the best. Very friendly! We even went back a second time! We went to Gem Factory to have our choice stones cut and mailed to us. We recommend both Willy’s BBQ & Fat Buddies BBQ. (Fat Buddies was hard to find behind Lowe’s in Franklin.) We also liked Sprinkles for their ice cream and super friendly service. The owner recommended taking the road towards Highlands to see the waterfalls. Very scenic! We shopped in Highlands at their quaint downtown. Our kids, ages 11 and almost 9 enjoyed the Fun Factory very much! The pizza bar and a steak restaurant are located inside. They also had bumper cars, bowling, arcade games and an outdoor race track, merry go round, and putt putt golf. The kids enjoyed earning tickets to cash in for prizes at the end. The house was beautiful and secluded. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again in the future! May 30, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialOwners – Hello! We came up to spend a wonderful week at the cabin to check on things as vacation. As usual, the week flew by! Lots of fishing at our pond at Sequoyah – Sterling caught 5 trout in an hour! And fishing & canoeing the river from Jerry’s Fish Camp. DO NOT MISS JW Mitchell’s farm right up the road off 28- we had so much fun picking strawberries and eating right off the plant – yum! All organic produce, farm fresh eggs, etc. We got new carpet and new chairs for the living room. Did a thorough housecleaning- the carpenter bees were very bad so we will be staining & painting the entire cabin mid-June. We did not get a chance to pick up a new picnic table but know it needs to be replaced. We love it up here and hope you will enjoy your stay here as much as we always do- PS don’t miss Pickin in the Square on Saturday nights in downtown Franklin –eat at the Frog & Owl May 23, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe came to celebrate our 20th Anniversary. The cabin was the best part of our whole vacation. After a rough day of treasure hunting it was great to come back & get in the hot tub. We lost power due to the storm from Tues-Wed but that was okay. Stay away from Mason Mine on Airport Road- very expensive and we didn’t find anything. All in all we had a great time! Thanks for everything! May 07, 2008Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe didn’t want to go home! It is so relaxing and beautiful here. I’m usually a beach person but this cabin and experience has turned me into a mountain girl. We had a lot of fun gem hunting and ended up with some pretty good finds. We very much enjoyed watching the sunset from the hot tub. We hope to return soon!! This was such a wonderful experience!! Thank you for sharing your dreamy cabin! February 20, 2005Reviewer: Jake & Lana Sterling From: Salisbury, NCThis website says it all!!!! This is such a beautiful cabin and mountain area. The views are unbelievable! Jake and I spent Feb.13th thru the 20th in the cabin and it was not long enough. We did not want to leave. The peace and quiet is just what we wanted. We celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary on Valentines Day, one that this cabin made very special. For anyone wanting to hike with your dogs, this area is the place. The waterfalls in the surrounding area are awesome!!!! I recommend a trip to Cades Cove in the Great Smokey Mountains. This is the best place and our favorite place to visit. There are no disappointments in this cabin. It's the best we have ever stayed in. Thanks for sharing your beautiful log cabin with us! April 13, 2004Reviewer: Donna Schuett From: Mansfield, OhioMy family of 5 stayed in this wonderful get-a-way in early April 2004. The home is beautiful, quite, comfortable and relaxing. The home is clean and well furnished to make vacation as easy as possible. All you need to bring is a swimsuit, a few cloths and food. Everything else is provided. The view was spectacular from early morning til 5:00 am when the moon began to set over the mountains. My husband and I enjoyed the peace and quite, while the boys enjoyed the woods, fishing, gem mining, hiking and hot tub. I can't think of a more wonderful place to spend a week with the people I love the most. Thank you, from all of us! August 24, 2002Owner-Supplied TestimonialThank you for sharing your lovely cabin with the two of us. This week gave us the opportunity to spend some quality time with one another which is exactly what we were in search of. In the morning we awoke to the sun shining in through the windows into the loft and it was at that point our day began. May we suggest one of more of the following: coffee on the deck, an early morning walk followed by a relaxing soak in the hot tub, a canoe trip down the Little Tennessee River or perhaps a leisurely drive over to Highlands or Cashiers. The drive there is full of beautiful mountain views and there are some easily accessible trails which lead to some amazing waterfalls, so take a camera. Highlands is a lovely town with many specialty shops and galleries, but at the end of a long day, it was always nice to return to our "Hidden Vacation" home here in Franklin. We chose to stay in and cook most nights where the only voices you hear are your own and the nightly serenade by the crickets comes and goes like clockwork. This is a vacation that allows you to rest, re-group and remind yourself of those things and perhaps someone which you consider most important. Thank you to our hosts, Mike and Christina for your efforts to make our week here most memorable and for inviting us into your home for dinner. August 10, 2002Owner-Supplied TestimonialThank you so much for renting this wonderful cabin. We enjoyed hiking, gem mining, and relaxing in these beautiful mountains. We can't wait to return!! August 02, 2002Owner-Supplied Testimonial

Mike and Christina, July 22, 2002Owner-Supplied Testimonial
Everything everyone else said and more. We are jealous that anyone else will be staying here after our family. Very, Very comfortable and charming. Great family times and memories have been made here. Thank you again for your hospitality and my son Dion will never forget his ride in the front seat of the Hummer!! I could go on and on, but will suffice and say wonderful & Thank You!! - Lisa June 30, 2002Owner-Supplied Testimonial
Absolutely in LOVE with the cabin. We will see you again! - Paul & Sally June 25, 2002Owner-Supplied Testimonial

Thanks for a wonderful dinner and a visit to your place! - Maria June 24, 2002Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe certainly had a humming good time starting with a pick up service in Mike's Hummer! The cabin is so cozy and inviting and the surroundings are just gorgeous. Hope to come back again. May 25, 2002Owner-Supplied Testimonial
The cabin was an unforgettable Memorial Day weekend. We are from Atlanta so the solitude was much appreciated. It is as if one takes a step back in time, the people are friendly and accomodating. April 07, 2002Owner-Supplied TestimonialWhat a great weekend getaway! We loved the cabin, the view, and the neighbors up the mountain! It's so peaceful and relaxing, we don't want to go back to the city. Everything was perfect - we felt right at home. Thanks for everything! April 03, 2002Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe've had a great time staying at the cabin. It was very accomodating and we had a great time spending it here with our friends. The Southerlands were very hospitable. Thanks for making our last night here special. December 26, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
The adventure of the cabin was absolutly great! Christmas was UNFORGETABLE. The cofort of the cabin is better that what you get at first sight. The view, the stars and the jacuzzi can not be missed. December 20, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe came to this cabin for a get-away vacation. We had a lovely time. The view is gorgeous! December 09, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
First of all, this place is beautiful. Though Brian and I found it slightly unaccomodating for those with disabilities, we were struck by the surroundings serenity. November 15, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe came here for our honeymoon. The cabin is great, it was the perfect getaway for our honeymoon! November 11, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
Came here for our Anniversary. Some wasps, but they were but a small smudge on an otherwise PERFECT weekend getaway. Fantastic weather, awesome view (particulary the stars at night), comfy furnishings, had a wonderful time. Thank you very much! October 29, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialLove the cabin and the view is tremendous! So peaceful and enjoyable and everyone pleasant. Look forward to coming back! God Bless all who come here! October 29, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialSecond visit to this part of the NC Mountains. We love just about everything, house, view, peacefulness, etc. The 24th was quite a night. A fierce storm came thru and we were without power for 12 hours, but Praise the Lord we remained safe and sound. October 20, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
Scenic leaves October 20, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
Scenic leaves October 15, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialWe really enjoyed the cabin and the beautiful mountains. The Smokies and the Blue Ridge views are incredible! The leaves were at their peak and couldn't have been more beautiful! October 11, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialSuch a beautiful place to get away from it all! It is hard to leave! We enjoyed long walks, amazed by the scenery. We even braved the 5 1/2 mile trail up to the top of Mt. Le Conte, (the 5 1/2 mile hike back down seemed like 10 miles), even still we would highly recommend it but plan on making a day of it. The hot tub does wonders for sore muscles! The house is beautiful and we would love to come back! October 07, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
What a great place to relax and enjoy family! September 15, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialOur 2nd trip to this very special place - we were here the same time last year and LOVED it so much we have purchased a lot here at Hidden Acres. Will build our own cabin soon!! Sept 11, 2001 - we were enjoying the beauty and peacefulness of the mountains; just returning from a long walk to the top of the mountain, when we turned on the TV to the horror of seeing the planes crash at the World Trade Towers and then the Pentagon. We were shocked and horrified at this terrible tragedy and the remainder of our vacation was clouded with sadness. But we are grateful when compared with all those suffering and lost. Our hearts go out to all of them... September 02, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialWOW!! What a cabin! Quiet and comfortable. The hot tub was a favorite! We were able to witness a breat-taking sunset. The grill was fun too! If you like meat, the "Macon Meat Market" will get you the cut you want. We really had a great day thanks to the "Old Town Canoe". They can send you on a 3 hour float. The highlight of our trip was the Biltmore Estate. What a splendid place! Overall, we had a wonderful time on our honeymoon and would love to return again! August 26, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialThe best place for star-gazing?...The Hot Tub! - Rain watching too! The cabin is beautiful, comfortable, and functional. The scenery incomparable. August 18, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
This place is gorgeous! Truly peaceful! Mining is fantastic. Mason Mountain Gem Mine just down the road toward Franklin is the best. Dig all day for $15. Found a 7.5 ct. saphire!!! Rerh's Gems is least expensive for cutting, a little further down road toward town. August 06, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialThanks for everything! We really enjoyed your home. July 28, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialThis cabin is great! Clean, laid out well, fantastic. Everything works properly too. Rafting rivers, Biltmore in Asheville, scenery...nothing is too far to get to and back in a day. Had a great time. July 23, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialThe house is wonderful. We had a great time visiting the area. The mountains are beautiful and it was fun to explore with my sisters and their husbands. We visited the Biltmore Estate, Cligman's Dome, and Dillsboro. We went white water rafting, trout fishing and rode Smokey Mountain Railroad. The view is THE BEST!! July 15, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
Peaceful! Beautiful! Great! 1st time in North Carolina. We are from NYC!! Noisy! Fast Paced! And this vacation was so stress free - we do not want to leave. July 11, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
Our vacation was wonderful despite losing power for 6 hours on the first day. We had fun rafting the Nantahala, horseback riding and shopping. The view was outstanding and we hope to come back again someday. June 27, 2001Owner-Supplied Testimonial
The cabin is an allure of uniqueness and tradition. Not only is the view indescribable, the barbeque it TOO much fun. We truly relaxed in the million buble hot tub and took romantic walks to the tremndous homes in the deep woods. We LOVE Hidden Acres! Beautiful sites and beautiful people!! June 27, 2001Owner-Supplied TestimonialWonderful experience for Staabs family. Great time of peascefulness and tranquility. A great time for friends and family!! Beautiful surrounds and peacefulness.
