Beautiful Sanctuary

Beautifully, well kept. Owner's communication was great and they even left us pastries. Property was very peaceful. Morning coffee walks and evening wine by the fire pit made the trip. One note, I suggest renting a car. Uber drivers are hesitant to go out to the area on weekends when they are busy in the City.

Blissful seclusion, but close to everything

We really enjoyed our time at the Little Cottage. The location feels like you're in the country, but you are just a short drive to Franklin, several state and county parks, and not far from Nashville. The cottage was easy to access, private and very comfortable. The owners are on site in a separate house, so I knew if we needed anything (though we did not), they were close at hand. I would happily return to this little slice of heaven.

Lovely Little Cottage

In a lovely rural setting but very close to downtown Franklin. Had an issue with a smoke detector & the host came to deal with it right away. Only issue was we were not aware there is not an oven & we had brought some food to bake. But that was minor.

10/10!!

My partner and I have been to dozens of places over the last few years, but it's difficult to think of any other place we love as much as this. Such as amazing location- quiet, serene, comfortable and private. The kitchen and bathroom were stocked with more amenities than we could ask for and the cabin was decorated so well!! We fell in love as soon as we walked in. Morning coffee out on the patio area listening to all of the beautiful bird songs as they flew from tree to tree was the most relaxing and peaceful experience I've had in some time. We will definitely be looking to come back again in the future!

Great weekend getaway

This property is just outside Franklin. It's very peaceful. My wife spend many hours outside reading on the patio. It's only a few miles from Franklin. Plus it's only 30 minutes or so from Nashville. Super close to everything but then just far enough away. I would recommend.

Our stay at the cottage

It was so lovely, the little cottage was absolutely perfect. The beds were so soft and the place had a wonderful feeling of home while being so far away from ours. Along with the owners being absolutely wonderful, and feeling like family. We'll deffanetly be back. :}

Great location close to Franklin

Great place and location to Franklin. Fair price. The place is 5 stars as written. I wish there was WiFi and the bed squeaked a little bit. Friendly and communicative owners. Great to have the kitchen available.

Charming little cottage

This was a great little retreat for a mother-daughter stay. I always look for safe, clean, cozy places, and this had just what we needed! Close enough to town, with a remote feel. Nice lg property, it felt like we were out in the woods when we weren't. Great communication with property contact, Meg! : )
