Further details for this vacation house rental in Franklin, North Carolina

Home away from Home: There are bare bones cabins and there are houses ... Most men want to getaway to a cabin, most women think a little pampering on vacation would be good. We have it all, a quiet private retreat, but with all the comforts of home and more. Let's face it, a couple of days without TV and internet sounds good initially, but what about that ball game you don't want to miss, or the need to keep in touch with the office even though you are on vacation. Feel pampered after a long hike, day fishing, or strenuous gem mining. Comfy mattresses, pillows, TV, internet, & all the comforts of home. OUR HOME IS ONE OF A KIND IN THE AREA. The location is mountain rural - quiet, out of the hustle & bustle but close enough to BASE ALL ACTIVITIES from - BEAUTIFUL MOUNTAIN VISTAS, fishing, hiking, museums, Cherokee Casino, Gem mining, restaurants, shopping festivals & fun. YEAR ROUND ACTIVITIES. NEARBY SKIING IN CATALOOCHEE (40 min). Come Escape to the Mountains!

Trying to Cut Costs? Share the expense: Bring another couple or two and it amounts to less than a nice hotel. Plan a quick family get together and share the costs. And, consider what you will save by being able to eat in. Cheaper than hotel rooms and much more comfortable! Re-charge your Relaxation Skills. The mountain views will help melt all your cares away. You will never want to leave. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR REDUCED WINTER RATES - $200 per night!

Time for the Girls?: This house is a great GIRL FRIEND GETAWAY. Relax, read, hike, & lots of shopping! We can arrange Spa services, catering/picnic baskets, cooking lessons, hiking tours, & more.

Ski: Skiing nearby - Sapphire Valley or Cataloochee, check website for conditions SkiNorthCarolina.com

Golf: Franklin has a wonderful public course as does nearby Cashiers & Highlands

Other Activities: Whitewater Rafting, Hiking, Gaming, Waterfalls, Blue Ridge Parkway, Picnicking, Mountain Drives

Excellent Rental

Enjoy southeast
Review Submitted: December 13, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
The Pond is an excellent rental home with everything you can possibly need at your disposal. Beautiful scenery, beautiful surroundings, and a beautiful home make it the perfect getaway. Nicely decorated with all the amenities you will need and offers complete privacy. Close proximity to Highlands and lots of hiking possibilities. We rented bikes at a local shop and enjoyed their beautiful park in their quaint town! Perfect for a quiet and relaxing escape!
