Be careful with the drive up! Stunning place, however!
The view is just as described-absolutely beautiful. It is very serene and you feel like you're alone up on the mountain. The hot tub was a great place to end our evenings. The drive is just as others described...treacherous. I wouldn't try it without 4-wheel drive. Communication with host was great! If you are a larger person, you may not be able to get up the winding stairwell to go to the upstairs loft - FYI!

Top of the Mountain Getaway
Great views and cabin was exactly as described. You are literally on top of the mountain so highly recommend a truck or vehicle with 4x4 capability to climb up unpaved gravel roads.

Amazing Getaway in Mountains
If you want something remote, peaceful, quiet, surrounded by nature - this is it!! Exactly what we were looking for. I will say - Wifi did not work at all and service was spotty...and if you're trying to go out every day and do things, it is a 25+ min drive down the mountain just to reach normal roads. We stayed a full week and only went down twice, really enjoyed the quiet time in the cabin. It has everything you need. Hot tub with the view was awesome! Fireplace was amazing. We did all our grocery shopping first day and cooked there. Lots of blankets and pillows, chopped firewood, kitchen utensils, ice trays. Thank you for a wonderful week.

Cozy Cabin
The cabin is at the TOP of a mountain so the view is fabulous. Great sunrise and gorgeous leaf colors surround the cabin and the drive up to it.. Nicely furnished with period antiques. It is cozy so look at the total square feet and make sure this is right for you. Very nice host and Franklin and surrounding area are fun to explore.

Wonderful, secluded cabin
They did a good job instructing where everything was and how to use it. They had a binder full of interesting history about the cabin that we enjoyed. The road is very well kept up with to get to the top of the mountain. The fire place and supplied wood was wonderful. The kids loved having a fire each evening.

Fantastic Adventure
This rental is amazing! From its rustic charm to its wonderful history shared through pictures, articles and a summary written by the owner, you will be immersed in its authenticity! The sunrises from the hot tub, the birds swarming the bird feeders on the deck, the incredible Cracker Barrel decor, and the wonderful winding road to the top of the mountain are all just icing on the cake. I highly recommend for a romantic getaway. So quaint and warm. We will return and we can’t wait!

Very quiet and private escape!
We very much enjoyed our stay in this cabin! Linens were nice and well stocked. There were plenty of towels which was appreciated, especially with the hot tub. The weather was mild while we were here, but there were multiple fans and space heaters in addition to the regular heating and air. I think temperature regulation would be easy! The hot tub was clean and enjoyable. The fire place was a bonus that we didn’t expect to use, but it made for such cozy evenings. Wood and kindling was well stocked. The house felt incredibly private. The deck and the hot tub were very private. The road getting up the mountain is a bit scary. I was a bit uncomfortable with the narrow, gravel road but my husband said it was fine. I would have preferred an AWD vehicle, but our Toyota Camry handled it okay. We did not experience any rain or inclement weather during our stay. I don’t know how the road is in other conditions. The main bed is very firm. It was fine for us, but may not be to everyone’s liking. I would definitely stay again! This was such a great space for us to enjoy an anniversary weekend!

Love this cabin!!
I cannot say enough about this little cabin! It is so peaceful and cozy. You have everything you need and even little notes to explain things you might not know. The cabin is small but just enough room. This history is very interesting as well. There is much to see in the area. I love waterfalls so this was the perfect place to find them. So many in the vicinity to see. Highlands is a nice little town not too far. Take the advice of the other reviews and arrive before dark. The road up to the cabin is not that bad but I wouldn't want to do it at night, at least the first time. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I love Mammy's and look forward to a time where I will go back!

Dream honeymoon location
My wife and I spent our honeymoon at this cabin. It was everything we hoped for. The view was phenominal. The cabin offered the perfect rustic asthetic that we were seeking and was close to alot of fun activities, views, hiking trails, and waterfalls. The host was attentive and polite. We will be returning in the future. We most certainly recommend this place for anyone seeking a vacation get-away.

25 year Anniversary Getaway
This home was the perfect romantic and special place to celebrate with your spouse/partner. The location is remote with beautiful vistas, yet close to the highlands and Cashiers for evening meals. The story of Mammys cabin is written in a welcome guide in the cabin- a must to read during your stay. It’s a great place to unplug and focus on the moment. We opened our 25 year marriage time capsule here. Thank you for the new memories, Mammy.

was absolutely beautiful. I wanted to be secluded and away from the world and that’s exactly what this place gave me. It has a beautiful history and the place is absolutely breathtaking the mountains are gorgeous and the hot tub was perfect. The drive up is a little scary in a car (I was in a Nissan Sentra) and had no issues though but going down is a lot easier lol. It’s a beautiful place I loved it hope to stay again.

Truly a ‘Getaway’
The drive up the mountain to the cabin is definitely “off the beaten path,” but the roads are well maintained and manageable. The cabin itself is older and rustic but pleasant, and the porch view was stunning. Towns and hiking trails were at least 20-25 minutes from the cabin, some slightly further, but it never seemed like a long drive.

Wonderful stay in a delightful cabin!
Mammy’s Cabin was perfect for a long weekend away from the city. The cabin is rich in history and bursting with charm! We loved reading the story of how Mammy’s Cabin came to be- and finding our own connections along the way! The kitchen is well stocked, bed is comfy, and the views are spectacular! The hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking. We enjoyed cooking, local restaurants, and nearby hikes! It was a great weekend and we hope to be back!
