The house was just as beautiful as the pictures! Super clean too. Matt was awesome and responded right away to us. We rented both units in the home as we had two families traveling and it was so fun just walking across the front porch to them. The close proximity to downtown and the Factory was great as we just walked places. Would definitely rent these units again.
Cute breakfast area
Love this little office. It was great to sit and work or just journal and enjoy some tea.
Master bath was gorgeous!
Love the old style fridge!

This was the cutest and cleanest VRBO I have ever stayed in. It was just as beautiful in person as in the pictures posted on the listing. It was the PERFECT location for walking to The Factory and historic downtown Franklin. The only drawback was that the family staying in the adjoining unit had two busy and very loud kiddos so when they were running around inside the house you could feel and hear it in our unit as well. Otherwise it was absolutely perfect for a girls trip. If we come back to Franklin there is no doubt this is where we would stay.
