Needs a new master bed.

The location is quiet and beautiful. The house is nice and the host was fine, but the bed was horrible. My husband and I ended up sleeping on the couches because of the bed.

Comfortable Place to Sleep

We didn't spend a lot of time at this property because we were in town to see family. It was perfectly adequate for our needs and provided a very comfortable place to sleep. Cherisse was very communicative and made sure we had everything we needed.

Good for a short stay

The property was clean. It could use some updating. The beds were older and so was the towels and furniture. Its ok for a short stay but it also has no internet.

Lovely Private Cabin

My family and I had an amazing time, and the cabin was everything we could have asked for. It was clean, comfy, and private. Yet, it was close enough to downtown Franklin and many of the natural attractions. Cherisse was a wonderful host, who communicates very clearly, and answers any questions. I highly recommend this place, and look forward to coming back soon.

Nice place. Will stay again

Nice clean home in a quiet neighborhood minutes from anywhere in Franklin. No issues whatsoever, other than maybe that there is construction going on along the nature trail to the river, so the trail is muddy and ugly at the moment.

Centrally located

The house looked small from the outside but was impressed with the inside. We were there to hike on the Appalachian Trail and this house was located just a little away from what i wanted but it worked out ok. We didn't spend any time outside since it was cold but the location was quiet. Overall it was a great stay.
