My husband and I stayed 3 nights at this lovely vrbo in Franklin while we were in town for a weekend with singer/songwriter Matthew West. The home was within walking distance to the Factory where we met several times. We were also there for the tree lifting which was amazing!! Susan was such a wonderful host she came over when we arrived to show us around the house and was so friendly! 10/10!

Park the car and walk everywhere
This location is perfect as downtown is just one street over. We walked most places to eat if we didn’t use the fully furnished kitchen to make a meal. Will certainly visit again.

Charming Guest Cottage
This is our second time staying at the Franklin Guest House and we are planning a third time next year. Susan is a perfect hostess; both helpful and friendly. The bed is very comfy, which is extremely important to us. And, it is only one block off from the historic downtown (great shopping and restaurants)! 🙂

This was the perfect spot for our visit to Franklin. The cottage is cozy and had everything we needed. Check-in was convenient. A very short walk to downtown restaurants and stores and an easy drive to Nashville.

This is our second stay at this guest house and we love it. Our 2 Westies travel with us and there are plenty of parks within walking distance of the rental. We love visiting Franklin and this rental is exceptional in every way! We loved walking to the awesome restaurants in downtown Franklin and not having to worry with parking our car! Susan is a great host! We can’t wait to return!!

Charm and comfort
We absolutely loved our stay in Franklin, TN. We were not familiar with the area and were so grateful to be in Franklin. Very close to Nashville but so much quieter. There was a street festival happening when we were there so we were able to join in the festivities which was great. Shops and restaurants in the downtown area are within easy walking distance. Susan was more than gracious and we appreciated being able to stay there.

Perfect Getaway
A friend and I stayed 2 nights in this beautiful Franklin cottage. Everything was perfection. A block from historic Franklin’s downtown. Easy walk with beautiful neighborhoods, great restaurants and shopping. Convenient but not in the hustle and bustle of downtown Nashville. Will definitely plan on staying here again.

Excellent host, location, and accommodations!
Great location! Nearly everything was within walking distance. Two teen girls loved being able to come and go as they pleased, and I appreciated not having to worry about their safety. The hostess was very communicative, and offered the place to us several hours early. I would definitely book this place again!

Weekend away
This was such a wonderful experience! The property was exactly what we expected and was absolutely charming! It’s located within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants in historic Franklin and is truly just a couple of blocks away. There was no reason for us to use our car when we stayed in Franklin. It’s a short and easy drive to Nashville (we also spent some time there). The property was very clean and our host made sure we had everything we needed. We highly recommend this property and will book again if we plan another trip to the area.
