The house was perfect for my solo stay while visiting friends in Franklin. Very comfortable and felt very safe. Check in was very easy and Mary (my host) was very accommodating and made sure I had everything I needed. Will definitely book again on my next visit! Great house ans had everything I needed.

We had an excellent stay. The area is quite and the road the house is located near does not have high traffic. The home was very clean and comfortable. The host and the neighbors are very welcoming. We received garden grown tomatoes and cucumbers. I would recommend a stay here.

What a cute ole farmhouse cottage! We were very comfortable. The temperature settings, the comfortable couch, excellent appliances, comfortable beds, everything very clean and tastefully decorated. Our host even left small candies for us (she must sense we love chocolate)! The shower felt great and we loved the large rain shower head. A full sized washer and dryer, and dog friendly! We will definitely be back. The cottage was easy to find, nice neighborhood. We are thankful we found this gem.

Wonderful location, cottage was cute, clean, and well-stocked. We brought a pet - the hosts are very pet-friendly, which can be difficult to find.

The decor was super cute! It was a lovely small home away from home. The drive wat was super easy to access, the property was easy to find and the house was immaculate! Beds are on the firmer side but we all slept comfortably! The view, as always was amazing! Highly recommended and will be staying again in the future!

Great

Everything was great. We enjoyed the ready to go coffee station. Our ten month old loved crawling around. We loved the location. Not too far from Franklin but not right in town.

Cozy cottage central to everything

We had a wonderful stay. The cottage really felt like home. It is in a great location, central to everything. My husband and fur baby loved the property across the street where they could roam and play. We were not wanting for anything as the cottage had a fully stocked kitchen, bath, bedrooms, and mud room with games, books, and brochures. We would definitely book again.

Cozy Cottage on the edge of Town

This cottage is better than advertised. It felt like a true home away from home. The location was perfect... close to downtown Franklin yet tucked away just enough to be relaxing and peaceful. The cottage was updated and spotlessly clean. The neighbors were all so friendly and the scenery was gorgeous in all directions. We're already dreaming of coming back!

Special Farmhouse Cottage and Wonderful Hosts

Lovely and comfortable cottage. We were greeted with special dog treats for our little dog and wonderful banana nut bread for us. Second day in Franklin I had a bad fall and then our little dog had to go to vet (on a weekend) local vets closed. Our hosts were so kind - brought food when I fell and also provided information on where to take our little 17 year old dog. We loved the little farmhouse. It was a good place to recuperate. Wonderful, kind hosts.

We so enjoyed meeting you both and, of course, Lily. Sorry for your unfortunate mishap. Hopefully you will be back again and be able to get out and about and take in all the mountains have to offer. Love the little pumpkin—thank you!

Spent a few days visiting family in the area. I can’t say enough good things about the property or the host! The farm house feel, was truly like coming home again. My kids and niece walked next door near the creek to pick fresh blueberries. Neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. The host are absolutely some of the best! Great communication and super friendly. Would I stay here again? ABSOLUTELY! I’m actually pretty sad that it’s time to go home. As someone that works in the travel industry, I have stayed at a lot of rentals. I would absolutely recommend this property to my clients.

Nice, comfortable little house

I had a lovely time staying at this nicely decorated house. Everything was well thought out and I was very comfortable in this house. I was worried that it might be a noisy place because the house is right beside the road, but it wasn't a busy road and the neighborhood was very quiet. I would definitely consider staying here again.
