Great place to stay in Franklin NC!!

The house is very spacious and clean. I liked that there were written instructions everywhere so you didn’t have to guess simple things. It was also decorated adorably. The kids loved the outside fire pit and enjoyed roasting marshmallows over the fire. The hosts were quick to call if I needed any help and even had a welcome gift waiting for us. We loved it so much we stayed an extra day! I would definitely stay here again and would love to come back in fall. This area is so beautiful!

Wonderful trip

Whitfield hideaway was everything advertised and more! It was clean, beautifully decorated and well equipped for everything that you need for a quick weekend getaway or a more extended stay. Jeannie was great to work with and very responsive when needed. The beds were comfortable, the shower was great and there were plenty of big fluffy towels. We hated when it was time for us to leave and can’t wait until we get to come stay again!!

Friends getaway

This place was amazing!! It was so beautiful and clean inside! Special touch was walking inside to Christmas tree and decorations with stockings that had our names on them! The whole stay was perfect and we enjoyed our time there. My mother just moved to Franklin and when there is a bigger group of us visiting her we will book this place every time. I can’t wait for the next time I can stay here!
