My husband and our two pups stayed here and it was great. Two huge bonus points for having the softest blanket like bath towels and having a really comfortable mattress. I would definitely stay again.

Beautiful Home full of Ladybugs 🐞
We had a very relaxing and wonderful time. Beautiful views and home! We loved the walk to the cemetery! What wonderful history! We plan on going back most definitely in the fall! And our dogs loved it too!

Peaceful with a beautiful view
Loved everything about our stay. Being a Floridian it was a beautiful change of scenery and the view from the house was the icing on the cake! The home was clean, cute & cozy. This won’t be the only time I book this home. Very happy with my choice!
This home has tranquil but interesting decor, plenty of comfortable furniture for relaxing,and a thoughtful user-friendly layout, it is clean and has a new deck and hottub. We thoroughly enjoyed the unabstruced view, the walks in the quiet neighborhood, the ample kitchen, and the short, easy drive to Franklin. Actually, after having stayed in several VRBOs in the last few years, this is the first home I actually look forward to returning to.
Cozy house with great views in a great location. However, we were unable to use the hot tub as there was dirt and debris floating inside the tub and laying in the floor as well the dirt/scum ring along the perimeter of the tub wall where your back would rest against it. Also the house was full of ladybugs. Dead ones laying in bed room around windows and along the floor. In both bathrooms getting on wash rags towels etc. informed the mngr and they said they would let the cleaners know. We would consider coming back as long as the property is cleaned properly as expected.
