The property was as described and very nice. It is a cabin in the woods, and it’s an hour and a half from just about everything but Franklin, NC. We enjoyed our stay and prefer a cabin type environment.

Beautiful cabin and setting. Lots of space. Easy access. Everything we needed was there. High chair and baby gates were unexpected bonuses. Beds were comfortable. Such a pretty view especially with the leaves this week! Wish we could have stayed longer and hope to return!

Beautiful and serene
We enjoyed our stay at the Fireman's dream. The only thing people need to know is the basement level that has beds in it, has no heat and it is very, very cold. The fire pit and hot tub were a hit. We also enjoyed the close proximity to Sylva and Dillsboro.

This is our second visit. Perfect location for my large family. The cabin is beautiful, clean and comfortably furnished. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals for our group of 10. The little ones loved the hot tub. We’ll certainly be back… as soon as possible.

Excellent for unwinding!
We loved our stay at the Fireman's Dream! You can tell that a lot of thought has gone into making sure that the cabin has most thing you need during stay there (appliances, utensils, linens, etc.), and the quietness of the surrounding area made this cabin even more the retreat we were looking for. The hot tub is quite the treat, and as dog owners, the added detail of having gates on the deck upstairs was incredible, as that helped us feel safe about letting the dogs roam around on the porch as well! All in all, our trip was awesome and we are definitely going to be renting this cabin again!

Great Cabin Great Location did I say Great Cabin
What a wonderful place and fantastic location. House has an excellent kitchen and well furnished rooms. The hardest part is deciding if you want to be on the porches, hot tub, at the fire-pit or in the great room. Wallace and Linda are fantastic to work with. We spent 4 days at the house on a motorcycle adventure, all law enforcement, and as much as it hurts to say, this fireman did it right!!!! LOL, Thanks again, fantastic place, we will be back........

Great Cabin! Great Getaway! Great Vacation!
Fireman's Dream is the perfect cabin for the perfect getaway! Upon entry, our breath was taken away by the rustic beauty of this cabin. To our amazement, the cabin was stocked with everything you could need. The location is so very peaceful, a great escape from the hustle and bustle of our everyday world! Give Fireman's Dream a try. You will thank the Nixs' for sharing their perfect home. Thank you for our girl's family vacation! Janet, Teresa, Debbie, Kelsie, and Jessica P.S. Susie and Sally(aka the dogs) loved their vacation cabin too!

Great place for a family get-together
Very nice, spacious home. Nicely furnished and decorated. Loved the knotty pine throughout the interior and the beautiful hardwood floors. Great, well equipped kitchen with top of the line appliances. Comfy bedrooms, all with their own TV. Large, wrap around porches were great for nature watching--deer in the yard, hummingbirds, and more. We really enjoyed the fire pit with provided firewood. It was the perfect location for great motorcycling with quick access to "Tail of the Dragon" and similar rides. We really enjoyed it and if available for our next trip to the area, we'll book it again.
