"Falling Water" Perfect for families!

Middle Creek is known for its pocket water and plunge pools in the creek with opportunities for catching Brook, Brown and Rainbow trout.

This house is like getting two for the price of one. The upper unit is a open concept with beautiful wooden floors, 2 bedrooms, large bathroom, sunroom, kitchen and a living room with a gas fireplace and a queen size sleeper couch.

The lower unit has a beautiful sunroom along with a fully updated kitchen, large bedroom and bathroom. The living area also has Queen size sleeper couch and gas fireplace. The cooling and heating is a mini split system and is separate from the upper unit .
Both units have exits to the multiple decks and sitting areas.
All of this and on a paved road with ample parking along with the creek frontage this is a hard combination to find.

We are located 9 miles from Franklin, NC and 11 miles from Clayton, GA so there is a choice of many restaurants and different things to do.

We live in a rural area without garbage pickup and an abundance amount of wildlife that will get into the trash. Please keep the trash inside in the garbage bins provided. You can take the garbage to the recycling center when you leave or we can for a fee of $25.

Cell phone reception will either be spotty or not work at all. Internet is provided so you can use your VOIP service offered on most phones(Voice over internet protocol). or we do have a landline phone.

Incredible stay!
My husband and I had the opportunity to stay at Falling Waters for our long weekend and we had the best time! The house is so relaxing and is RIGHT over the beautiful creek. We loved listening to the sound of the water flowing by the house and were lucky enough to be able to bring our pups along who absolutely loved their time in the mountains! My husband loved the open living space which was perfect for cooking a great steak and watching football and we really enjoyed all of the great deck space at the home by the water.

Family Weekend
This place is wonderful! Very interesting house and the location right on the creek's edge is peaceful and just beautiful. The house itself was well supplied with everything we might need and beautifully decorated. My family had so much fun and we all hope to make a return visit sometime in the future. Middle Creek is a special place to me because my father grew up a couple of curves up the road. Now my own family has memories there too. Thank you for an awesome weekend!

Great Vacation!
This is a beautiful home away from home! We had a large group and everyone had plenty of space. There are lots of spaces to congregate together or find a few minutes of quiet time by yourself. The creek is perfect! We enjoyed sitting on the rocks with our feet in the cold water, and hanging out under the gazebo. The guys kept busy catching little fish and the teenagers spent a day tuning down the creek to the river. The house is clean and had plenty of bed and bath linens. It is also really well-stocked with cooking utensils, pots and pans; it even had cake pans, so we got to celebrate a 17th birthday properly! Overall, this property is fantastic, no complaints at all, and several little perks, which were really appreciated.

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful time. The house is large and rambling and fabulous. Not pretentious, just comfy and cozy and the sound of that water…breathtaking!! Super grateful to the owner. I had accidentally booked starting a day later than I showed up and he let us in a day early. (Bless him!) super responsive and kind. 10/10 recommend. We hope to be back!

Beautiful Location
We enjoyed our long weekend at Falling Waters. This was a great house for a larger family gathering. It is big enough to be together but has many fun unique sitting areas to explore for some time to escape. It was so peacful to just sit on the deck and listen to the river. This was a beautiful time of the year since the leaves were changing. The house is well stocked, clean and easily accessible. Tim was very responsive from the booking process all the way through checking out. Would definetly consider staying again.

Personality Property with Calming Sounds of River and the PERFECT LOCATION
We booked a "Ladies' Weekend" to explore the hiking trails, shops/ restaurants of Franklin, etc. This property had TONS of space for all of us with plenty of bathrooms, outdoor seating options, personal space and comfortable rooms/beds. We (6 women in our 50s) enjoyed sitting on the decks by the river at night with an adult beverage and thoroughly relaxed by the river with an added bonus of beautiful night skies. The property has tons of personality and tells it story. The property was easy to find and access. The owner offered fast responses. We ALL would HIGHLY recommend this to any group coming to the area. We thoroughly enjoyed this property and location--thank you for allowing us to stay! SIDENOTE: HIKING- We did "Ranger Falls" (on the way to Highlands) and Silar Bald (on the way to Lake Nantahala). EATING: We ate at Gracious Plates (Franklin) and had a WONDERFUL Sommelier (Estephan) who took us on a "wine journey" around the world--plus the food was wonderful (all locally sourced/ grown); lastly we hit "River's End Restaurant" at the Nantahala Outdoor Center (NOC)--it is right on the river near the whitewater race course--awesome food, view and you can walk down to the river (put those feet in after those couple hiking days). We loved this experience!

Wonderful House
This was such an amazing home for my family of 7. The pictures online didn't do it justice. The beds were all very comfortable. The art and decorations around the house were so nice. Our 5 teenagers loved all the nooks and places to hang out in. The area was close to so many hiking trails and mountain activities. The stream was so beautiful and I could sit out side listening to it all day. Tim was very responsive and great to deal with. We will for sure book again.

Spacious and peaceful!
This home provided a large enough space for our group of 11 to gather but also plenty of separate spaces for people to separate to read and relax, play board games, watch TV, nap, etc. The sound of the falling water is like nothing else to soothe a soul!

Siblings getaway fall trip
We were very pleased with our stay at Falling Waters. It exceeded the description as well as the pictures. Very clean. Beautifully decorated and accessories above and beyond. We are all over the age of 70, and even though there were steps, the scenery was worth the extra steps. The soothing sound of the creek as we sat on the back, just took our breath away. Thank you to the host, Tim, who was very generous with his help and explantations.

DOWN BY THE LAZY RIVER
Great Labor day long weekend stay. Property is exactly as advertised. House is spacious and very well equipped. Unusual floor plan but it works well. The covered deck sitting area was great. Especially since it rained a lot over the days we were there. Found lots of floating devices for using in the river. Unfortunately couldn't get on the river much due to all of the rain turning the lazy river into a raging river. We did get to fish, even with the river being wild. Caught some trout, a couple of redeye bass, and a bunch of chubs (bump heads) Good place to relax and do nothing.

Great Holiday Trip
The place is better than advertised. We had a group of 5 adults but house could accommodate several more very easily. Great location to grocery store and just a few more minutes to downtown Franklin. Much closer than it appears on the map. The decks and creek were great. Want to come back in warmer weather and take more advantage of the outdoor amenities. Fenced in yard for dogs a huge plus. We’ll be back again for sure. Hosts did great job on communication and getting past some booking hurdles. 10 out of 10.
