Quaint and comfortable

We were four girlfriends/family celebrating milestone birthdays. We enjoyed our stay and appreciated the antiques and homey decor. Enjoyed exploring the town of Franklin and history of the area. Location was good, but had to drive to downtown. Would recommend.

It was a very lovely home. I own a VRBO that I rent in Charleston. I really think this house needs a little more lighted areas. The lighting in the kitchen is very dim. The beds were comfortable. It's about a 5 -7 minute drive downtown. Not really walkable to the downtown area. Very quiet and peaceful street.

Alpha Conference

We were in town to attend the national Alpha conference held at the City of God church, we wanted a comfy, quiet place to relax for a couple of days near the conference. The cottage was everything we were hoping for, clean, quiet, and the bed was so comfortable. I will be looking to stay here again next year.

Not what was advertised

Advertised as a (2) bathroom (3) bedrooms, all the bedrooms were there, but per VRBO listing, the house is lacking half of the advertised (2) full baths, it’s 1 1/2 baths, that’s an issue when traveling with friends. Lacking a bath/shower in the second bathroom created some getting ready issues we never anticipated or expected since the unit reads 3 bedrooms/ 2 baths, not true. With that being said, the price point with the added mandatory extra insurance is unjustified or inappropriate. The property has plenty of potential, but sense there is no concern to eye appeal or appearances, both the front and back of house need some attention to detail. The entry paver walkway is uneven and gaps between pavers are an accident waiting to happen. Bamboo window blind at kitchen table doesn’t operate properly, the one full bathroom has water drain issues in tub and sink. The kitchen faucet also constantly drips. When you pay top dollar but don’t get what’s advertised, that’s an issue. Will be staying elsewhere on our next visit.
