Rustic lodge on 40 acres overlooking a creek - Dogs OK | Cabin in Franklin
4 Bedroom Cabin in Franklin
A spacious, 4 bedroom lodge on 41 acres in the heart of Nantahala National Forest. Enjoy the creek running through the front pasture or exploring the forest up to the ridge, maybe even find the spring that feeds the house. Minutes to world class fishing, you can also enjoy gem mining, canoeing and tubing, hiking and mountain biking and see spectacular waterfalls. Then come back to your retreat and cook dinner in a gourmet kitchen. After dinner sit in the porch swing and listen to the creek.
NOTE: We love our delicious, natural spring water, but due to the flow rate of the spring and the current amount of water storage, we can host groups of 5 of fewer for extended stays. For larger groups we can only host for shorter 2-3 day stays.
The main floor of this cabin constructed home is an open living/dining/kitchen. The dining room has a door that opens to an outdoor dining area that also has a gas grill. The dining table seats 10 and there is another table in the living room that can be utilized for dining, game or puzzle playing, or as a desk. Between the two tables is a large flagstone wood burning fireplace. The rest of the living room is filled with a large, comfy sectional sofa and love seat before a large 65" Roku television. Log in to your Netflix, Hulu, YouTube TV, Sling, HBOMax or other streaming services and be automatically logged out at the end of your stay. On particularly cold nights, the wood stove can be used in addition to the fireplace.
The fully stocked kitchen is a chef's dream. A large professional grade 6 burner gas cooktop that also includes a built in griddle is the star of the show. The supporting cast includes a full sized double oven, full sized side by side stainless steel refrigerator and freezer, a large stainless steel farmhouse sink, and butcher block counter and island. The coffee counter includes a drip pot with insulated carafe, a French press, and electric kettle. The kitchen also contains a microwave, toaster, blender, waffle iron, large Crock Pot style slow cooker, and all of the other things needed to feed a large group.... cutting boards, Pyrex bowls and baking dishes, muffin tins and baking sheets in addition to standard pots, pans and utensils.
The rest of the main floor consists of a small bathroom with a shower near the front door, a queen room with wardrobe, laundry rooms, and a very spacious master suite with a king bed, a sitting area with table and chairs. The room between the master bedroom and master bath contains a private workspace with a desk as well as walk in closet. The master bath has double vanity, tub, and shower. It also has its own door onto the front deck where the hot tub is located.
The upstairs landing area is another living space with a sectional couch, 55" Roku television, a foosball coffee table and a small reading nook on the other side of the staircase. There is a king room with walk-in closet and its own balcony. A large kids dormitory with two bunk beds and a day bed that sleeps 5 that also has its own balcony. There is also a full bath with a double vanity on the second floor.
The very large covered back deck looks out on the pasture and creek. Enjoy your morning coffee listening to the creek while sitting on one of the four rocking chairs. You can also enjoy the sounds of the stream while snoozing in the hammock or gliding on the porch swing.
Walk down to the pasture and play in the creek or follow the logging road up into the woods behind the house and explore the over 35 acres behind the house up to the ridgeline.
