Old friends
Two old friends were coming to the States from England for work and pleasure. They flew into Atlanta and we hosted them at Buttercup Haven from Tuesday to Friday. The drive up from Atlanta is easy, Franklin NC has plenty to do and Buttercup Haven lived up to expectations. The house is well situated to take in the wonderful views. The house was immaculate, well furnished, and had everything needed for cooking and enjoying the meals al fresco. There is lovely dining table as well but the weather was perfect for being out of doors and Buttercup Haven has beautiful and comfortable outdoor spaces. We could not have been happier with Buttercup Haven. Great fun, good times, we look forward to returning.

Wow. Just wow!
When I booked the cabin for an extended family Christmas, I figured we would have to do without a tree. I was wrong. Not only did the owner have a magnificent decorated tree in the living room, but almost every room of the house had little moments of Christmas on display. Then time and effort spent on decorating, made it feel like Christmas and made our family get together special. Not only did the owner decorate, she went out of her way to ensure that we could get packages delivered and was very responsive to questions we had to prepare for an extended family Christmas. As beautiful as it was with the decorations, I think the cabin will be equally as lovely once the holidays are over. The decor is so well done and the design is perfect for small or large gatherings. We had 4 couples and each had a room with their own en suite. There was also a half bath. The hot tub had a great view and the decks wrapped around the house so you could watch the sunrise and/or sunset. Since it was cold, we opted to watch the beautiful sis sets from the living room which offered fantastic views. We have stayed at many vrbos over the years and this cabin had the best kitchen we have ever seen. The. Best. We made large meals for the extended family and the kitchen had every appliance and utensil we needed, along with serving platters etc. There was a game area upstairs, but also a space downstairs to play. The cabin is close to Highlands, Cashiers and less than an hour from Asheville. Regardless of the season or your reason for going, is a well designed cabin with a thoughtful and responsive owner. We can’t say enough good things and will definitely be back.

Thanks for your 5-star review Nichol. Yes, decorating for the holidays is a labor of love, but it's important that my guests experience the holidays as they would in their own homes, including a well-equipped kitchen.

Great upscale mountain getaway
Outstanding! Great space inside and amazing views! Appliances and furnishings are excellent. 7 adults and two toddlers… plenty of space. We were there for Thanksgiving, so did a good bit of cooking. Best equipped kitchen I have seen in a rental. Great appliances and pots/pans/tools.

Best one yet!
We take trips to the mountains as a group every year (3 couples / 6 adults). We have stayed at various properties across western NC, eastern TN, and north GA. This one was far the best yet! Proximity to various towns, hikes, etc and the amenities were amazing. We actually cut our day out on Saturday a bit short because everyone wanted to return to the house and enjoy the views. We will definitely return and recommend Buttercup Haven in the future!

Absolutely breathtaking property! Beautiful views of the mountains. Clean and tastefully decorated home. Margaret, the home owner, was easy to communicate with and was readily available if we needed anything. We all had a great time in the area, plenty to do. We chased waterfalls, went rafting, visited Biltmore and dined at some fantastic restaurants. We will be back! Buttercup Haven was the perfect home to stay in for our Girls Getaway!

37th annual girls’ trip!
There are 5 of us between the ages of 63 and 85, (this year) who have traveled annually for many years. Buttercup Haven was our best house yet. We had fantastic beds and bathrooms, great kitchen with everything one needs, outdoor seating for the full experience of the porches. And on and on…Franklin was close for groceries, the trash dump or gas. Margaret communicated well and even had a booklet with all information needed. Thanks so much for your lovely house!

Beautiful Luxury Home
Buttercup Haven is one of the most beautiful homes we’ve ever rented. The location is convenient to everything but also very private. Once entering the Featherstone development we didn’t encounter another person or vehicle the entire week. The views are spectacular in all directions. The home is excellently constructed, spacious and comfortable. It is also very tastefully decorated and the furniture and appliances are of high quality. The property and grounds are well maintained. Margaret, the property owner, was easy to communicate with and very attentive. We will definitely stay here again.

Great mountain getaway
Stayed here with our family over spring break and had a great time. The property is immaculate, has great views, is perfect for families, and has very nice amenities including the hot tub and fire place, which we used every day. This side of the mountains is slower paced but that was perfect for us as there is still plenty to do and the area isn't overdeveloped with cheesy tourist stuff. We had a very minor issue with the door code at check in and the host was super responsive and very nice. 10/10 would recommend this place.

Girl's Get Away - Perfect in Every way!
Our women's hiking group found this house to be perfect in every way. Besides all the special touches throughout this beautiful house, we loved the mountain views in 3 directions, especially enjoyed the views from the hot tub including the lights of Franklin down below. The large dinning room table was great for shared meals and game nights and as an added bonus we enjoyed a beautiful sunset during dinner. The sleeping arrangements were perfect and the house is so open and roomy, each room offered privacy and enough separation everyone had plenty of space. We truly hope to be back soon!

This is one of the most beautiful houses we have ever stayed in with VRBO! Nothing was spared in this house. The kitchen is fully stocked, the linens on the beds, the decor is A+. The views are breath taking. Relaxing in the hot tub after a day of hiking is amazing. The host called to make sure we had gotten in and that everything was in order. We cannot wait to go back. We hiked in the Highlands and saw so many amazing waterfalls.

Magnificent in every way!!!!
A little slice of heaven..The drive down the driveway was our first clue that this was going to be something really special. The gardens were beautiful and blooming! The view just at the corner of the house was panoramic and breathtaking. Enter the door and you didn't know where to look first. The gorgeous, beautifully appointed home with everything that you could ever ask for provided for your comfort and practical needs, or the 270 degree panoramic views that made you gasp. But let me be specific: The kitchen: a cook's dream! Well organized as well as stocked with family friendly dishes, adequate pots and pans, and utensils. The living area: Comfortable seating in several spots for dining or playing games, glass walled doors that brought those beautiful views to you at an eye lift. Large television to cover the whole living area so all could see and hear. Beautiful beams and architecture that left you wondering, "how did they do that?" The Bedrooms: Each with a different personality but the same in comfort, luxurious bedding, and space. Bathrooms: Interesting designs in each one and more than adequate towels provided. Downstairs: two game room type places for kids to have a ball or sleep. Laundry room: Modern appliances--so appreciated. Porches: we wore them out. All of us, young to old, loved being out there to drink in the views, drink coffee, have a meal, soak in the wonderful hot tub. We have stayed in a lot of cabins and this one exceeded our expectations. We felt welcomed and cared for by the owner even though we never met. But it was obvious that the hospitality offered here was more than just a rental. Her attention to every need you could possibly have had already been in mind and attended to. Thank you. We hope we can come back.

This pictures of this property do it no justice. Once you arrive you will feel like you have just landed in a place that is not only magical, but equipped with EVERYTHING you could possibly need. We spent a wonderful week here with my family celebrating our parents 60th wedding anniversary and I can't think of anywhere that could have made it more special. From booking, to all the detailed information that Margaret provided prior to our arrival, we were well equipped to plan an amazing week. The house is spectacular with decks for coffee in the morning and wine at sunset. An evening soak in the hot tub with a view over the city tops it all off. If you are looking for a little slice of heaven, then this home definitely needs to be added to your must stay list!

We had the most amazing time at Buttercup Haven! The location was absolutely beautiful! We enjoyed exploring the trails near the house during the day, and we loved stargazing at night. The house was perfect for our group of 5 adults and 1 child. It was so clean--every surface was spotless! We especially enjoyed the hot tub, fireplace, game table nook, and the well-stocked kitchen complete with gas stove. It was the perfect getaway and a wonderful family vacation we'll remember forever!

This beautiful home is for everyone
Spectacular. That and a few other superlatives came to mind when we arrived – and we hadn’t even entered the house. Staying here was an wonderful experience, one that the photos only hint at. Our stay was made even better by the home’s accessibility features. With one member of our party a wheelchair user, we’ve found travel, even to ADA compliant hotels, usually requires us to be a bit “improvisational.” Lots less improv needed at this beautiful home, though we brought along some of our usual, handy supportive devices for the bathroom. The key thing is every one of us, walkers and wheeler, enjoyed all the exceptional views from the great room and east and west exterior decks. So nice to say, “this home is for everyone.” I’d happily return.

Buttercup Haven was amazing. The home was beautiful and the decks were a dream. Choices were the east side or the west side and both included amazing views and comfortable seating. Just sitting on the decks reminded me of why I love visiting that area of North Carolina. Margaret was easy to communicate with. It is obvious she has not made this into another rental property but rather a much loved home. We were blessed.

Great place/Great Communication
The home was absolutely stunning. It was great for a long weekend - close to town for groceries, but still totally private/isolated. We had a maintenance issue upon check-in and Margaret took care of it instantly! Would definitely stay again.

Cabin on the top of the mountain
Luxurious and spacious cabin which is perfectly equipped with everything you will need for your stay. The directions from the property manager were clear and specific and she was available for anything we needed. The last stretch of the road is pretty steep, but it’s worth the wonderful view of smoky mountains. The cabin itself is just beautiful! We had a wonderful time.

Great place to stay!
Everything was great! Margaret is very organized, detailed and caring individual, it was a pleasure renting from Margaret. Now that I have an aging parent it was great to find a nice place to stay with no stairs from entering or main level living. I would highly recommend staying at Buttercup Haven!!!

Many thanks for your great review and recommendation, Monica. I truly appreciate it. Buttercup Haven is certainly a perfect spot in the mountains because of its flat entry to the property and one level living for those occupying the master suite and "queen bedroom' opposite. It's been a great feature for many guests. I'm glad everything worked out for your stay. Thanks again, Margaret

best vacation house ever
It begins with Margaret who makes renting easy and provides great detailed instructions on how everything works. The drive from Franklin is easy. The road to the house is paved , a little steep but easy to drive. The house is located in a secluded spot with unbelievable mountain views from every side. The house itself is beautiful with multiple dining areas and 5 sleeping areas all with bathrooms. All but one sleeping area had large flat screen televisions with good cable. The living room has a larger flat screen television , gas fireplace and dvd player. We did not use it but there was a hot tub on the deck that looked very inviting, Unlike many rentals there is enough cooking and eating utensils for a small army. We have been renting villas in Europe for the past 6 years and nothing compares with this property for the price. It is stocked with everything you will need to cook, be entertained and relax. We were 6 mature adults who used the main 4 bedrooms. They were all clean , roomy and comfortable. The house is decorated tastefully throughout and is very comfortable with tables and chairs outside and in. I had planned a very busy itinerary for the 4 nights we were there. One look at the house and nobody wanted to leave. We all decided we wanted to return. We went to Bryson City for the train ride and really enjoyed the ride and the city. We also enjoyed Waynesville and Highlands. Great shopping and food in all three places. We stopped at Dry Falls on the way to Highlands. It was visible from the parking lot but a short walk-on a paved path let you go under the falls. very nice. We ate at Wild Thyme in Highland , Pasqualinos in Bryson City and had a good country breakfast at Ms. Lois Cafe in Franklin. All excellent service and food. I cannot describe how truly nice this property is. highly recommended.

My family and I had an absolutely wonderful vacation in Franklin, NC at gorgeous Buttercup Haven.
Our experiences during our vacation to Franklin and Highlands, NC were so great. The Buttercup Haven mountain home was gorgeous, furnished and decorated exceptionally with spectacular views throughout the home. Enjoying sunrise and sunset views on the decks was so peaceful and relaxing, and literally felt like we were in the clouds! The air could not have been any fresher!! The landscaping around the home is just lovely as well. Margaret, the owner I had contact with, did such a fantastic job providing all the details we would need for check in, while there, and check out. She was so kind to text periodically to check on us, and it was so nice knowing if we needed anything that she was available and could be reached. I now understand why many precious renters have returned there for their vacation. Our family certainly hopes to return there soon! We Cools are now fans! Thank you!!

Smoky Mountain Marvel
Wonderful house for sitting back and enjoying the scenery! Lots of hiking in the area and outdoor activities. The house is very accessible for wheelchairs and walkers - two bedrooms on first floor and master has a walk-in shower. The kitchen is extremely well equipped. We tried to think of something we would add or change and the only thing we could think of was a way to play music on a Bluetooth speaker. Picky, Picky! The house is extremely clean. Kudos to the housekeepers! Margaret was just a text away and available to answer any questions.

Thanks for the great review and for pointing out how accessible Buttercup Haven is for wheelchair and walker guests. I agree it's an important feature that is unexpected for a mountain home. I'll look into your bluetooth suggestion. Many thanks, Margaret

Appalachian Trail Reunion Main to Georgia 1974
There are no words to describe this property! I have rented many homes over the years, but this experience surpassed all expectations. Besides being a beautiful home with top of the line everything, the whole process was smooth and efficient and the home was spotless. We had 8 women enjoying the home for a week. We didn’t even need the downstairs which had even more room. Every door in the home leads to a porch with stunning views. Margaret has stocked this home with everything you could possibly need. Better book fast, because we are all bringing our extended families back!

Porch Heaven
We had a wonderful experience at Buttercup Haven. There were 7 adults and 3 children and it was plenty of room! Margaret was always available to communicate and answer any and all questions. The views are breathtaking from every porch. We spent tons of time on all 4–but the bed swing was my favorite! We hardly left the house because there was so much to do and explore on the property with young kids. It was such a comfortable, wonderful stay for the whole family. We can’t wait to return someday!
