Cabin vacation rentals in Franklin

Save your self the trouble spending hours researching where to stay in the Smokies. This location is a perfect proximity to where ever you decide to venture off too. The property itself is stunning to say the least! The thought out decor, details, layout, and craftsmanship was much appreciated. You’ll love sitting out on the balcony overlooking the Smokies listening to sounds of nature around you. The furniture inside is very cozy, you’ll get plenty good rest between adventures. The kitchen is well stocked with all the tools needed for your kitchen/bbq grill creations. The hosts were amazing, and quick to respond to anything you may need before and during your stay. We loved our stay, and were saddened to leave. We look forwards to visiting again. Thank you again, Jeff and Jill. Your hospitality was greatly appreciated. Darlene & Eddie

Awesome stay! Loved the cabin. If we needed anything, we had our questions answered diligently.

Couples getaway, is just what this place is. very private with little extra amenities with out the extra cost. Very clean and comfortable.

Beautiful, peaceful home with spectacular views! We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub in the evening. It was a perfect place for our family getaway.

Best experience I've had with AirBnB. Michelle was friendly and polite. The cabin was exactly as described, clean and great for our weekend getaway. 5/5 would recommend.

Me and my husband searched for the perfect romantic getaway for our late honeymoon/ 1 year anniversary. When we came across Knotty But Nice we were sold! The view was immaculate, pictures do not do justice. The house was extremely clean and cozy. The hot tub was clean and so relaxing. Overall peaceful and private! The drive up was pretty scary the first time, I’m definitely glad that we had an SUV! But 10/10 recommend! We are already planning another trip in the fall. Thanks Dana & Trish! 😊

I was impressed of how spacious the home was on the inside and all of the amenities were perfect too!

Excellent host! We loved the place and the extras that the host thought of were great. We always come prepared with extra paper goods but they had us stocked for the week! Cabin was very clean and the outdoor area was excellent! Hearing kids play outside in the area was great for us because the laughter brightened our day (you just don’t see outside play much anymore). Tim and Merle were very responsive and were very helpful when we enjoyed ourselves so much we added a day to our stay!! LOVE THE CABIN AND ITS OUTDOOR AREA!! Highly recommend this cabin and host!

The Lake house was one of the quietest and most peaceful air b-and-b's we have stayed at. The new back deck is the highlight of the lake cabin. The rest of the cabin is fully equipped and functional, but we hardly left the back deck. With its fenced in area and gate was perfect for the dog. The kayaks and dock are a nice addition. It is located close to good dining at Micas restaurant and Whiteside brewery. We came for the hiking in Panthertown area. We will be back again.

Beautiful place! Levi & Darah reached out with info and helpful tips well ahead of time and were very responsive throughout our stay. The cabin itself is gorgeous, very clean with nice furniture and updated decor. Very comfortable and spacious, well equipped kitchen. We stayed 4 nights while on vacation and spent a lot of that time on the back porch enjoying the incredible views! Some noise during the day - traffic and landscaping from neighborhoods nearby - but quiet at night. Seriously consider driving a 4WD/AWD vehicle up to the cabin because it really is steep and between moss growing on the road & any amount of rain it can get really slick. It rained a lot during our stay and our Honda Civic made it up but was a nail biter every time. Overall an excellent experience, we really enjoyed our stay! Great place to retreat and minutes away from restaurants and things to do in Townsend.

Staying at Lee’s cabin was an absolute dream. Perched atop a mountain with wide open views in every direction, the setting was peaceful and awe-inspiring. The home itself is a gorgeous 70’s modern build, full of character with striking angles, massive windows, and natural light pouring in from every side. It’s the perfect blend of style, comfort, and immersion in nature. Lots of stone, glass, and wood. Lee was a fantastic host—communication was clear, check-in was seamless, and everything about the experience felt easy and welcoming. I found myself wishing I could extend my stay, but I knew snagging more time at a place like this wouldn’t be easy! Truly one of the most memorable stays I’ve had. No complaints at all—just gratitude. I’d come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay. The cabin was very clean, the kitchen was well stocked for cooking in, and the amenities were great. We enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit, and fishing along the river. The kids toys and games were a nice addition. Nicki was very friendly and responsive. We’d love to stay here again next year!

Great cabin to enjoy the peaceful side of the Smokies!

This was a great place and especially clean would definitely recommend for families!

Close to everything but away from it all and convenient to so much.

We were having our family Christmas get together and was so happy that the house was still beautifully decorated for Christmas. That made our gathering extra special! The house was perfect for our group!

Stunning views! If you are wanting to get away and just relax this is an amazing option while still being close to Bryson City where all the white water rafting is. Very peaceful and wonderful home! Main bed was very comfortable, great kitchen for cooking and our dogs enjoyed it as well. Would definitely come back.

Amazing little cottage with gorgeous views from the front porch! Driveway is steep but plentiful parking for 2- 3 cars. Host is very responsive, friendly and the house was clean and honey ❤️ Loved our stay and we will be back!

We really enjoyed our time at the cabin. Location was great and the deck over the river's edge was wonderful. Only suggestion we would have is a vacuum for the cabin versus just a broom. Rate was great and we will be back.

We really enjoyed our stay — the cabin was very secluded and peaceful. It was exactly as pictured. One of our favorite parts was having coffee every morning on the balcony while listening to the sound of the creek — so relaxing. We also had a great time at the NOC, which offered plenty of fun activities for the whole family.

Great host

Mary was a great host & we absolutely loved Luna Lodge for a quick weekend getaway! Would recommend to any and every one!

We had such an amazing stay! The view alone is worth booking, but everything else just made it even better. The location strikes the perfect balance—peaceful and secluded enough to feel like a true getaway, but still close to town for anything you might need. Makenzi was absolutely wonderful—great communication, super friendly, and made everything feel easy and welcoming. You can tell they really care about the space AND the people staying in it. Honestly, the only downside was having to pack up and leave. We’re so grateful they shared their slice of heaven with us, and we’d recommend this place in a heartbeat. Don’t hesitate—book it!

We loved the cabin for a visit to the mountains of NC. Nice hikes, river rafting and the beauty of nature are found there in abundance. The hot tub was especially enjoyed after a day of hiking and the cabin met all our needs. Our host responded quickly to any questions or needs we had. We would love to return.
