Peaceful!Just what we wanted. Away from medical issues and the rat race,We have loved staying in Franklin during August for 6 of the last 7 years. Even though the temperature was above average for Franklin, it was a joy for someone from south Florida, especially with evenings still going to the low 60's and the constant morning fog.

We had a wonderful stay at this charming farmhouse! From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much thought and care had gone into every detail. The home was beautifully decorated, spotless, and incredibly welcoming, with thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home.The peaceful setting was the perfect place to relax, and everything we needed was provided. It was obvious that the hosts truly care about their guests’ experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better getaway and would happily stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a cozy, well-appointed, and memorable place to stay!

We had a great time and the house was excellent. It was a quiet location in the mountains of Western North Carolina (Franklin). The views were fantastic. We plan on returning to this location.

We loved this house! It was like a cozy haven away from our normal city life. We sat in the rockers on the front porch every evening and watched the lightning bugs and cows while the sun went down. The host was amazing and stayed on top of any questions we had. I could not recommend this house more. We will definitely stay there again.

Takes me back in time!

I love this house. It's in a great location. Less than 10 minutes from downtown Franklin. Very pretty view from the front porch. We would stay here again. Also it is easy for my mother who is in her eighties to get into. It has a ramp for the side door.

Fall Getaway

Convenient location and lovely home. We loved seeing the deer in the mornings! Margaret was wonderful and gave us so much information! The kitchen was fully stocked. It was such a comfortable house for 2 couples. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and touring the whole area from Asheville to Highlands. Thank you!!

Nostalgia to my Childhood

This beautiful red brick farmhouse, built in 1958, is completely furnished with a 1960's feel. Everything was clean and orderly and every convenience was provided. I've stayed in many VRBO rentals and this one was stocked with everything you could possibly need. The owner was very communicative, helpful and responsive. This is a great getaway in the NC mountains.

Beautiful Farm House Near Franklin, NC

This was the perfect choice for our group - we're family, 56 to 63 yr old siblings and spouses. The location is a peaceful country scene - pastures and cows and songbirds, property faces the sunset - every evening started outside, soaking up the countryside and sitting around the fire. Franklin has a great grocery, so we had breakfast and dinner at the house and lunches on our travels. The house was spotless, with many touches from the host's family - it was charming, and homey, and reminiscent of the country life we grew up in - it was great!

1950’s time warp

This is a cozy 1950’s house that retains the 1950’s look and feel right down to the avocado green sectional. I felt right at home immediately. Everything was spic and span with comfortable beds and a well equipped kitchen. I was mostly able to navigate my wheelchair around without too much trouble but a wider chair won’t make it. Overall an excellent stay

Amazing views

My mother, my sister and I went down to antique in the area and just wanted a "home base". This home was perfect for us. Margaret was very easy to communicate with. The house was immaculately clean. We stayed in the little den most of the time we were there and the views were just outstanding. We ate at Ms. Lois and it was good but if you have time to go down into Dillard, GA, The Cupboard cafe was amazing. (Be sure to try their biscuits.) I have saved this property, so if we ever venture that way again...we have found a home away from home. Thank you, Margaret, for sharing your property with us "little ol' ladies."

First, we were welcomed with an absolutely stunning view, which is one of the reasons we booked this particular home. Another was the mid century modern design and decor, with a touch of modern upgrades. The fact that Margaret left so many personal items throughout the house made us feel as if her family was welcoming us for the holidays, giving us a cozy, peaceful feeling. Even though the kitchen is small, it afforded us plenty of space to make our Thanksgiving dinner and morning breakfast, so do not let that stop you from staying here. If you’re wondering where to stay, this is it! The amenities are top notch, close to town, easy to get to, meaning you do not need a AWD to get to it and beautiful sunrises and sunsets! Let the house speak for itself! You won’t regret it! Also to note, Margaret is a wonderful host and her attention to detail and readiness to help, if needed, was very much appreciated!

Farmhouse Memories

The Farmhouse was exactly as described. Ms. Margaret took great care to make sure our arrival was seamless. The home-like atmosphere was both spacious and comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked for the cooking we did. The fire pit was really nice on the cool nights and the grill worked great! It was very special knowing this was the house she grew up in, and when admiring the view from the front windows, you couldn’t help but imagine what her childhood must have been like on the farm. The Farmhouse is also within 35 miles or less of many towns making day trips enjoyable. There are plenty of great restaurants in Franklin, which are included in the “Welcome” binder on the coffee table (add Lucio’s, Haywood’s Barbque and The Kountry Kitchen to the list). We will definitely be back next season.

This home had a unique vintage charm. We loved the history of the home and property. Margaret communicated with us and was available if needed. The location was great- close to town but yet far enough away to be peaceful.

We absolutely love this house. I’ve lost count of how many times we’ve stayed there. The views are stunning. We love watching the sunset from the porch. The kitchen and amenities made our stay easy and enjoyable. Margaret is AMAZING. Really good communication with her and she’s always willing to answer any questions we may have. We’re definitely coming back.!

The farmhouse in Franklin was a lovely retreat into another era. The house is nicely decorated in 60's retro furniture just like grandma had! The is a gorgeous view outside your living room window of the pasture across the street complete with cows.The driveway has ample parking. There is a carport so if you bring up a motorcycle and trailer it will keep both out of the elements. Nice rocking chairs on the front porch allow you to enjoy the western sunsets without going further than the porch. The little Tennessee river is about 7 mins away so if you need to cool off there is a small beach there. The host was very helpful to any issues that arose and gave you a book explaining all the working of the TV and direct TV nicely. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would return again if we were ever in the Franklin area.

Visiting college daughter

Our stay was absolutely perfect!! The home is exactly as it is advertised - clean, comfortable, accommodating and beautiful. My mother is pretty picky but she was very pleased with the property - she was very comfortable. Margaret, the homeowner, is so sweet and I appreciated that she wanted to touch base before we arrived at the home. Our entire trip was wonderful from beginning to end and being able to stay in a very lovely home not far from my daughter was a blessing. The fantastic weather allowed us to watch a beautiful sunset each evening from the house. We have plans to return to this specific home on our future visits to NC. It was a wonderful time!!

A quaint farm house in the mountains.

We go to NC every summer. This has been one of our most enjoyable views and stays. The house is great and spacious and there is a farm across the way with friendly donkeys. The house is conveniently located near the downtown. We WILL stay here again next year (if we can!). We loved it.
