1 Bedroom Cabin in Franklin

New - Paved Driveway, Deck Roof/Railing, and Starlink High-Speed Internet! We also recently had some trees topped off to improve the mountain view. We're constantly striving to improve our cabin amenities for you.
This cabin for couples is the perfect location for the two of you to enjoy all that Franklin, Highlands, Cashiers, and Sylva have to offer. Don't just take my word for it, check out the wonderful reviews that previous guests have left.
Enjoy your time relaxing in the cabin or the deck with a view of the mountain and the peace and quiet away from the hectic day-to-day, and reconnect with each other.
This beautiful, new, bear-themed, compact park model log cabin perched on a hill in Laurel Canyon between Franklin and Highlands, nestled between the trees with a breathtaking mountain view of Cedar Knob from the covered deck, is a wonderful spot in the mountains for a couple to get away to unplug, unwind, relax, and renew.
Conveniently located between Franklin, Highlands, and Cashiers with a short drive to the many area attractions and only a few minutes away from the scenic Cullasaja River Gorge, Cullasaja Falls, Dry Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and Glenville Lake. Other nearby attractions include gem mining at Jackson Hole and antiquing at the nearby Whistle Stop. There are plenty of attractions, restaurants, and local festivals/events in nearby Franklin and Highlands. Google the Discover Franklin, NC tourism and Macon County Chamber of Commerce websites for attractions and festival/event schedules. 45-minute drive to Cherokee and the Smoky Mountains.
Built in 2018 by Green River Cabins, this "Yearling" model cabin is fully furnished with a kitchen that is ready for cooking, cozy breakfast bar, and barstools, a living room with dual recliner love seat, an electric fireplace, and TV with Blu-Ray/DVD player, full bedroom with a queen-sized bed and plenty of wardrobe and drawer space for all of your personal items, compact washer and dryer, and bathroom with 48” shower, ceiling fans in the living room/kitchen area and bedroom. There is a gas grill on the covered deck for grilling and rocking chairs to sit and enjoy the beautiful view of the mountain across the canyon.
The driveway is fully paved now, no more worry about getting up the gravel driveway or needing all wheel drive, you could climb it easily in a Prius. Getting to the cabin, there are no gravel roads to travel. The upper parking area can accommodate two vehicles. A lower parking area at the base of the drive can accommodate a small vehicle..
The cabin is equipped with Starlink satellite internet service at the cabin with free wi-fi. Speeds can vary depending on weather and other factors, but it's more than plenty for 2 people (100mbps, often more). For streaming, web surfing and e-mail, it's amazingly fast, although you may experience an occasional blip on teleconferencing apps in the summer moths.
There is a 50" Roku smart TV in the living room with Blu-Ray player and a selection of DVDs. There is a 32" Roku smart TV in the bedroom. You can log in to your favorite streaming services with Roku (Sling, Hulu, YoutubeTV, Netflix, Amazon, Disney, etc.) and enjoy your favorite shows and movies in the cabin. There is no landline telephone service or local TV channels.
Cellular service in the mountains is spotty so we have installed a cellular booster kit at the cabin. AT&T works best (3-5 bars), Verizon gets a fair service (1-2 bars). One of our recent guests that has Sprint reported that they had cell service at the cabin. We have not tested with other carriers. Cell phone reception can vary depending on the time of year (tree cover), weather, and the phone's internal antenna (some models are better than others). If your phone supports internet calling, just connect it to the Starlink high-speed internet.
We hope you’ll love our little cabin as much as we do and that you will feel relaxed, refreshed, renewed, and reconnected after your stay.
Smoking is allowed outside on the deck with the doors closed, but not inside the cabin.
There is an additional 10% discount for stays 7 nights or longer.

Summary: We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin! The view was breathtaking, and the whole space had such a clean, cozy, home-away-from-home feel. It was the perfect balance—secluded enough to feel peaceful and private, yet close enough to everything we wanted to explore. It truly made our getaway special, and we’re already looking forward to coming back!

Summary: The cabin was absolutely adorable, super clean, and just the right size for my husband and me. The driveway was just a little tight for our really big truck, but we made it...4 wheel drive going and coming. I did think it was a little odd that the air conditioning couldn't be turned down below 76. That's hard for a menopausal woman with hot flashes. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. Thank you, again, for your hospitality.

Summary: Perfect location for a couple wanting to be isolated from most of the world. Great place to stay in and read, or to drive a few miles to hike, shop, or eat. We hope to have the opportunity to return several times.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Black Bear Cove! What a cozy little cabin with every amenity you need. The only issue we had was the steep driveway (which owner did warn about) but we made it up each time! I'm just glad my husband did the driving and we were in his Nissan truck. The cabin was perfect for our 35th wedding anniversary weekend. Thanks so much!

Summary: We were thoroughly pleased with the cabin it was gorgeous and set upon a hill where the view was stunning and yes the drive way was Streep . The only downfalls we’re no internet and since we own 3 businesses and needed it it was a little rough but we made do by going to town but they made up for that by supplying tons of awesome movies to watch and it gave quality time with my wife. Definitely no interruptions . The lower parking space was not explained very well so we brought out motorcycles in my trailer and that did not work as its super tiny so we had to go find parking but as a whole it rocks just don’t take a trailer.
