Shop the many unique shops downtown Franklin (20 min away) and quaint gourmet restaurants & bistros. We're in a quite, rural/residential area. The cabin faces west toward the Appalachian Trail.

We've had guests that have arrived on motorcycles and they tell us we are easily accessible by motorcycle. There is no public transit in this small, rural town. The closest commercial airport is Asheville. Enterprise DOES rent cars here. We have a list of volunteers who will do hiker shuttles for you in this county for a nominal fee, but that should be arranged prior to your arrival. We no longer accept pets after discovering that per AirBnB policy, a pet could be ANY pet, including a pig. When we did accept a dog this is what we had under "Other Things to Note": Pets: We’ve come up with this protocol to be sure everyone is on the same page prior to booking w/a dog. Must be house trained & pre-approved prior to making a booking request. It can be challenging for a host to accept/not accept a dog. Please give us an INQUIRY vs a booking when asking to bring a pet & give us the following info (basically introduce your potential host to the dog you would like to bring): Breed/weight/age/temperament (dog & people friendly), house broken? Ok with bringing sheets or whatever to cover our furniture if your dog is accustom to getting on furniture (this request is in respect for next guest that may have severe dog-dander allergy)? Ok w/keeping your dog on lead at all times when outside (we've got free roaming chickens)? Ok with dog being crated or taken w/you when you leave or left inside our spacious dog kennel? Ok w/the pet fee of $50 being added once you book? Ok w/posting a picture of your dog's head on your AirBnB profile or any other way sending us a photo? Again, if you are asking to bring a dog, pls communicate via INQUIRY to us prior to making an actual reservation request . No cats. Anyone bringing an undeclared pet or person will have their reservation cancelled without refund. A service animal is a dog that is individually trained to do work or perform a task for a person with a disability. Regarding bringing a "Service" animal, according to law, we will require you to declare if the animal is required because of a disability, and what work or task the animal has been trained to perform. Note: If you show up with an undeclared dog/pet, you will be asked to leave immediately, no refund issued. Fraudulent "service" animals will be reported. Regarding children: Any age is fine, but please disclose them in your request to reserve. First three minors with their parents are free. Outside security cameras may not be touched. For $60 a night, you leave it guest ready, like you found it. Introducing yourself to your host: You relied heavily on our profile information. Host do as well to insure the property is a good fit for both parties. As indicated, we require at least one profile photo that shows your face. This is helpful so hosts know who to welcome into their home. A description of at least 50 words highlighting why you decided to join the Airbnb community, your interests or hobbies, or anything else you think a potential host would want to know on your public profile. If after your reservation goes through, we do not see your face in a photo, per AirBnB policy, your reservation will be canceled. Board games, puzzles, movies and books provided. If you are looking for a Digital Detox location, this is perfect for you. The cabin does have DSL WiFi, but that doesn't mean you have to connect. Feel free to leave our home phone # as an emergency # for you, and totally unplug while you are at Tranquility Ridge. Very popular with writers who seek solitude, chef's who enjoy cooking, and organic living. There is a lg screen but no TV signal. WINTER: When temps drop below 45, you'll need to run the woodburning stove. We supply you seasoned firewood, directions, even an instructional video. This requires a learning curve to operate. No, you cannot bring/operate an auxiliary heater. If you feel you cannot operate the woodstove, this is not this listing for you.
