Close but...

The property is located within easy walking distance of all the downtown Franklin amenities, it was clean and comfortable and reasonably priced. However the WiFi signal was very weak, my phone was not able to establish a connection during my stay and web pages loaded very slowly on the tablet. Further, a box of tissues would have been nice.

Birthday Getaway

Our overall stay was amazing. Property was very clean and walking distance to everything downtown. My only suggestion would be a new mattress. It was quite uncomfortable, other than that, our stay was AMAZING and the cottage was fabulous!!!

Stopover in Franklin on a drive to Florida

Perfect location, great to have kitchen, washer/dryer, parking spot, sitting area. Is in a former garage behind a house, very quiet and private. Go slowly driving in, steep at the beginning. Would suggest brighter lighting in the bathroom and curtains that cover the windows better for sleeping in. Would definitely stay here again.

Cozy place, great location

The place was decorated impeccably and you can't beat the location. There were a few minor things but they probably wouldn't prevent me from staying again. Owner should do away with the Alexa things because they are a bit of a pain and add very little. Bathroom door should probably get replaced because it squeaks, so your partner wakes up, and there are large gaps that make it less private than I think most people would prefer. 3 coffee pods was not enough for 2 adults 2 days, there was no creamer, and only a couple sugars. Mostly artificial sweetener was provided. I would bring my own sugar in the raw next time. Overall it was a really cute and enjoyable place.

Best Ever Cotttage!!

Bluebird Cottage is immaculate, warm, inviting, super comfy, a very short walk to everything, nestled in a gorgeous neighborhood, and has everything you need for your Franklin stay. Do not hesitate to book! Oh, and your hostess is super quick to reply to any questions. And yes, Franklin is as cute, fun, yummy, and delightful as you've been told. ;)

Getaway

Nice sized cottage. Had everything we needed. Felt the mattress was in need of being replaced. Wi-Fi was sketchy, but maybe because there were some storms while we were there. Overall it was a very nice place. Super convenient to walk the downtown area.

Super cute cottage with perfect location!

My husband and I decided to stay two nights in Franklin for our baby moon. We loved bluebird cottage and easily walked to Main Street, frothy monkey and biscuit love. The lights outside and fire pit were also a nice bonus! Definitely recommend staying here and hope to be back someday!
