Quiet, Clean with Everything You Need

We stayed for the 2022 Christmas holiday with our dog. The house has a nice fenced back yard (very important to us) and was perfect for a dog family. Hard floors, 2 doors to the yard, and no stairs. We also did some cooking over the holiday and found everything we needed, including a pan for the Christmas roast and a hand mixer and baking sheet for cookies! The neighborhood is great. No noise, good for walking, easy to get to Nashville, and close to the center of Franklin, which is a fun destination itself. We also took advantage of the nice Williamson County Parks and Rec Franklin facility.

Super cute and very clean, but one thing to note

This was a super cute and very clean little cottage. Location was great! We chose it because the description said comfortable memory foam beds. The bedroom my husband and I stayed in did NOT have a memory foam bed. The bed was not comfortable for me at all, but would probably be fine for some. I’m just super picky about beds. The house is old and it does have a musty smell. I was worried when we arrived because I’m super sensitive to stuff like that. I thought for sure I would end up stuffy, but no reactions at all. And they have an air filter running. So if it wasn’t for the bed, I would absolutely stay here again. One of the cleanest places we’ve stayed in and Monisa, the host, was super responsive. If you are not picky about beds, this is hands down one of the best places to stay!

Clean/Comfortable/Quiet

This home is very clean, well maintained, and the two queen beds are very comfortable. We didn't use the pull-out sofa. Downtown Franklin is a short drive away, walkable in maybe 20 minutes. This is a quiet neighborhood, many beautiful homes in the area, and not a party place. We would definitely return!
