We enjoyed our stay here! We ran into a few hiccups locating the home, cell signal, and needing a later checkout. The host was easy to reach and super helpful. The shower is incredible! The view is so peaceful. As we are local residents to Macon county we will definitely be recommending this property for future out of town guests!

Amazingly beautiful property! Got our family well with enough bedding for everyone. Kids enjoyed the basement with the variety of games. The bunkhouse was perfect for my teenage boys although I do feel it could be updated. But worked for them. GORGEOUS views from the back deck. We loved sitting in the loft swing beds and watching the sunsets. The only con I will say is the floors on the main floors creak when walking on so if you have late sleepers downstairs, it will wake them up Great stay otherwise!

Perfection
Super clean house, well stocked kitchen, had everything we need. The property manager was super fast to respond and fix an issue with the fireplace remote - within hours it was fixed and we enjoyed it during our entire stay. So cozy! With the game room, extra fridge downstairs, large porch swings, and large fire pit, we enjoyed every amenity. 100% will book again for next year!

Amazing property and views
My family and I had a great experience. The property was beautifully maintained and very clean. It had a cozy yet spacious feel. The location was perfect being that it was very private and just a short drive away from town with plenty of things to do in the area. The views from the property were breathtaking.. We especially enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after a long day of white water rafting. This property had everything we needed. Highly recommend!!

Top Notch!
Absolutely beautiful cabin-very well supplie, clean and comfortable! The views are amazing! We used the hot tub every day and it was perfect. Plenty of space for 8 of us. The tv in the main family room gets lots of cable channels. It doesn’t stream well (like Netflix) so we brought our own Roku and it did fine. We also had a little snafu with the guest house which was remediated IMMEDIATELY. Loretta, the property manager, was very easy to communicate with and was very friendly and accommodating. LOVED The Slanted Window Tasting Station (wine). We would definitely stay here again!

Great family cabin!
We had a great weekend stay at Laurel Lodge. Cabin is in a quiet, remote area that is still close to Franklin and Highlands, where we snow tubed. We had plenty of space for 4 adults and 6 kids, with basically 2 masters on the main and a basement plus mini cabin on the property. Lots of updates in the cabin - HUGE shower in the primary bedroom, dining table for 8 , comfy mattresses, plenty of towels, nice hot tub and lots of fun games in the basement for the kids. Our very favorite feature of the cabin was the two swinging beds on the porch with the most gorgeous view.. we were there every free moment we had. Home was also one of the best stocked rentals we ve stayed in and we’ve stayed in many. The local contact Loretta was very helpful when I had a couple different questions! It was a bit hard to find using our phones gps’ but the check in instructions included written directions that helped. We would love to return for a longer stay next time!

Beautiful mountain house!!
Our stay was amazing and the house was better equipped than any other we have stayed in previously. The back porch with the swings was the ideal spot to relax on each afternoon / evening!!!
Although the driveway was paved, it should be noted that it was narrow and steep. We drove a truck with a trailer for our motorcycle and it was a little difficult to manage the drive up. Knowing what we were driving, I should have asked more questions so we were more prepared. As a result I just thought I would share. This is certainly not a complaint...just more of an FYI for those who are looking to book. Everything about the property was great and we would recommend it.

Secluded location with amazing view
Kids and hubby enjoyed the game room. I loved the porch swings and view. Couch is much more comfortable than it appears in the pictures. Comfy beds. Master bath was fabulous. I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a cabin with such a stocked kitchen. Kitchen is fully stocked so it was easy to cook and enjoy meals. We enjoyed all the extra touches made to this cabin to really make you feel at home. Location notes: Gorgeous views. Grocery store is about 15 minutes away, everything else is at least 30 minutes. Waze directions do not work, but directions from the host are clear and easy. Wish we would’ve realized how close it was to Black Rock State Park (GA) before our last day. Our only complaint about the cabin is you have to take your trash to an off site location; that was annoying. Also, we couldn’t get in the bonus building. We didn’t necessarily need it but since it’s part of the rental we wanted to check it out for possible future visits. Not sure why it’s listed, but then locked down. Overall- this place is awesome if you want a secluded, quiet vacation.

The home is beautiful, however it was not clean when we arrived so I would recommend you call the contact to confirm your check in.
The home is beautiful, however it was not clean when we arrived so I would recommend you call the contact to confirm your check in as they thought we were arriving on a different date but when they checked the records, they realized they had made a mistake. It wouldn't have been so awful had we not just driven 12 hours in a car with kids.

Beautiful Mountain Home
We had the pleasure of spending time with out Kids and grands at this beautiful mountain home. We were high enough to see the sunrise on the mountains and the fog in the valley each morning from the large deck with oversized swings and rockers. The home owner responded promptly with any issues we had. Unfortunately we were not able to get the dryer so work, but the home owner tried her best to get someone out on a holiday weekend. Not an easy task.

Mountain Gem
This unanticipated gem is a beautiful home for family and friends. After sitting on the covered porch drinking our coffee, taking in the spectacular mountain views, we loved coming into a warm fireplace and the cozy throws. We enjoyed our competitive games of foosball and shuffleboard followed by a meal from the stylish kitchen. Don’t miss the opportunity to enjoy this experience.

Can't Say Enough Good Things About This Property
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this amazing property! From the beginning, we had great communication from the property management company, as well as the owner.
The home was remodeled and decorated beautifully. It had many high-end finishes and the most amazing master bath with the biggest shower we have ever been in! Each bathroom was beautifully done, but everyone insisted on using the master shower. The home was immaculately clean and all the small attentions to details made for a very homey and pleasant feel.
The views were stunning and the deck offered the most comfortable and stylish couch swings and rocking chairs in which to enjoy the setting. Even with 24 degree weather, it was hard to not stay outside.
The property does not have WiFi but the cellular service worked perfectly and we were able to make calls, access emails, go on line and receive texts.
I almost didn't want to give this property rave reviews because we want to be able stay here again next year. However, this home/owner deserves the credit that is due.
To note:
Follow the directions given by the company as the GPS to the actual address will NOT take you where you want to go.
The driveway is paved but VERY steep (12% grade), so 4 wheel drive is good to have; if not necessary.
