Just like the title says, very clean home and the fenced yard was so nice for our pup. It is close to downtown Franklin - maybe a 30 minute walk. We also walked to a coffee shop which was a 1/2 mile away. The house is also stocked with all your essentials which was nice! Enjoyed our stay and would stay there again!

Adorable, eclectic house. Big rooms and great location -quiet neighborhood. My only suggestion would be to upgrade the mattresses! Way too firm and I woke up with a stiff back and hips each morning. Other than that, I would recommend and I would stay there again (if we go again I’m bringing my 3” foam topper in the trunk).

the location couldn't have been better. Away from the craziness of downtown franklin but close enough to walk. Also, The fenced in backyard was perfect for our dog and for sitting outside in the mornings and late afternoons. The only complaint was that the neighbors are very close and they are outside a lot playing music at a very loud volume. Not a deal breaker but it could get annoying. The property and house were great.
