About this property
Tims Ford Lake, Sewanee, and Historic Downtown Winchester
Enjoy a comfortable and stylish stay at this centrally located Winchester home. Designed by Franklin County native, and Nashville interior design group, The Boxwood Garden. Your host knows the area well. Nestled less than a mile from historic downtown Winchester where you can indulge in several dining and shopping options on the lovely square. The greater Franklin County area is an outdoors person's dream! Time can be spent hiking in the mountains, touring Sewanee or Jack Daniels/ George Dickel, boating at Tims Ford Lake, floating the Elk River, or just relaxing at this oh so quaint destination. The location is also convenient for concerting at The Caverns. We could go on and on for options for exercise and entertainment. Don't miss out on a chance to feel pampered and relaxed by this cozy cottage. Walk to Twin Creeks via a hidden shortcut. TFL launch ramp & Twin Creeks < 1/4 mile. City Park with tennis courts also less than 1/4 mile.
