The kitchen was everything you could ask for and more. At times, we had 4 people doing different things at the same time without congestion. Lots of fun yard things to do. Very centrally located but private. Beds were very comfortable. Internet was great and check out was a breeze. Definitely on our list for the future.

Franklin Rock & Gem Show

This is an outstanding property with an inviting atmosphere and a very well furnished interior. The kitchen is amazing with its amount of windows. Property is close to downtown and easy access off of a main road. Definitely will try to get again next time we attend the rock show.

Clean and Comfortable!

We enjoyed our stay! The house was very clean and comfortable. There were many thoughtful extras including snacks. The property was beautiful with lots of flowers blooming and a very nice waterfall and stream. We had fun playing badminton and basketball. It was very close to shops and restaurants in downtown Franklin.

Wonderful New Year's Getaway❤️

We really enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was a dream to prepare meals and we enjoyed the variety of space on the property. It rained a lot while there so we were unable to really enjoy the outside but took advantage of the game cabinet. Communication was excellent and location was perfect. We hope to stay again.
