Photos and Description of the Franklin vacation cabin rental
2 bedroom / 1 bath (sleeps 6)

This gem miner's retreat is private, serene, wooded, and a short distance from all of the outdoor fun, adventures, and activities the Great Smoky Mountains have to offer.

Located near the intersection of Ruby Mine Road and Cherokee Mine Road, this cabin enjoys a beautiful mountain view, and is situated in the heart of the beautiful and peaceful 'Historic District Area' of Cowee Valley, NC.

The Cherokee Ruby and Sapphire Mine is a short and scenic hike from this cabin. Our private road and driveway areas are paved with mining gravel from the Cherokee Ruby and Sapphire Mine, and many nice gems have been collected along our drive.

No smoking is permitted inside of the cabin. Pet permitted with pet deposit.

Mountain living at its best

Review Submitted: August 14, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
Our stay in your cabin can only be described as fantastic. The accomodations were spotless and had everything that we could possibly need. The screened in porch was perfect for sitting and reading, along with taking in the peace and quiet. We are already planning another trip back, as soon as possible. Of course, the gem mining at Cherokee Ruby Mine was wonderful as well. Ms. Maria, as usual was extremely helpful and gracious. Dinner at the Hidden Gem in Franklin concluded our perfect week. Thanks again to the Montoya family as well as Ms. Maria for making our vacation AWESOME! Beverly Haley, Farmville, NC

Great view and peace and quite

Review Submitted: June 1, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
totaly relaxing! The cabin was spot less and the queen bed was like sleeping on a cloud. The direct tv and dvds were great, the whole experience was just what I was looking for and down the mountain at the Cherokee ruby and saphire mine I found several nice saphires.

Wonderful Vacation!

Review Submitted: July 4, 2010 Date of Stay: June 2010
Our family just returned from a wonderful vacation at Cowee Valley Getaway. The cabin was very nice and clean. It was perfect for our family of 4 including two boys 9 and 13. My husband and I loved the screened in front porch with the rockers. Almost everyday we would sit our there in the morning and the evening and watch the surrounding and enjoy the peace and quiet. We had many busy filled days from gem mining to white water rafting at NOC in Bryson City which turned out to be one of our favorite activities of the week. The boys absolutely loved The Fun Factory! Spent 5 hours there and enjoyed the Pizza Buffet as well. Our youngest was very excited to have found a 26 carat ruby while gem mining! We liked that we were able to take advantage of the kitchen and cook most of our meals. I also loved the washer and dryer since it was so wonderful not having to do laundry as soon as you got home. One other thing we loved (well actually me) was visiting as many waterfalls in the area as we could. My favorite was Dry Falls. You will never get as close to a waterfall as you will with this one. Amazing! Would definitely recommend this rental to anyone looking for a nice getaway.

This being our family cabin and having spent many wonderful memorable times there ourselves it warms my heart to know another family has shared in having great memories together there too. You and family are welcome any time!

Thank you for Our great vacation!

Review Submitted: May 11, 2010 Date of Stay: May 2010
We had a wonderful vacation at Franklin, it's our first anniversary so we're looking for an adventure and romantic getaway. We're traveling with our 3years old Shih Tzu, so we need a pet friendly place. The home is exactly what we're looking for, quiet, cozy and very comfortable. Only a few minutes from Franklin, perfect place for rock hounding vacation because it's located just up the hill from Cherokee Ruby Mine the best unsalted mine in the area (we ventured different mines in the area to find out that the best place to mine is just right down the street). The owners of the home are the nicest people we have ever met, Raymond, Amanda and Mary are very accommodating, friendly and helpful.
This is the first time we rented a vacation home and it's the best thing we've ever did, now I'm a big fan of vacation rental. The home has everything we needed, eat-in kitchen and much appreciated laundry room. Comfortable queen bed, jack and Jill bath and second bedroom with 2 twins bed. Living room has nice comfortable futon and a oversize armchair and satellite TV! We grilled out almost everyday, gas grill was provided on the porch. The home has cover porch with 4 rocking chair walk out to small uncovered porch which was our pup's favorite spot we had to convinced him to come inside he had to much fun out there. We found a very good ice cream place downtown Franklin after visit couple of museums in town. We spent a day at Nantahala Outdoor Center, white water rafting is very tempting but the water still a little cold in May also we had our dog with us but we'll definitely plan to do that next time. So we're coming back again next year.

Owner's Response: Thank you!! We were just thrilled that you chose our place to rent and it was our pleasure to meet you both and your pup! We look forward to seeing you again next year.
