Perfection

This was the perfect stay for me. I come on a business trip twice a year, and the location, speed of the Wi-Fi, and hospitalities were exceptional! As everyone else says here, I agree with it all, Bruce has the sweetest heart, the best green thumb ever, and makes certain you stay is the best possible. I will most definitely be returning and am definitely looking forward to my next visit. Also, for those who are a little nervous about driveways. This one is a touch steep, but once you go up it once or twice you have it down. It’s easy. This is coming from someone who is not so seasoned on driving in the mountains.

Wonderful stay

Bruce’s place was perfect. Location is so convenient to anything you might want to do in Franklin and surrounding areas. And the apartment is so clean and comfortable. We really looked forward to returning here every afternoon. It’s like coming home! The porch with a good book and glass of wine was so relaxing. Bruce has thought of everything and we sure hope to be back soon!

Extraordinary Getaway at Pleasant Hill

The apartment is beautiful with extraordinary decor. Great for a working vacation with a nice desk. Kitchen was stocked with sufficient dishes, utensils, etc. and easy to use. The front porch was a relaxing place to enjoy coffee in the morning & to unwind in the evening. Plantings were an added touch. This was my second stay. I thoroughly enjoyed both my stays & hope to return soon.

A little piece of paradise

This getaway is heavenly. The front porch has a beautiful view, yet feels private. There are beautiful flowers everywhere and hummingbirds to watch although you feel like you are out in the middle of nature, you are truly 5 minutes away from everything. Bruce has thought of your every amenity need snd keeps the place immaculate. Will be back next year.. Although you feel

Beautiful place

This VRBO is even better than it appears in the write up. Very clean, tastefully decorated and Bruce is so easy to work with. Very prompt with communication! There were fresh flowers from the gardens when we arrived and the entire experience was amazing! The front porch was private while allowing us to observe the gardens. Was a great place to relax with a glass of wine in the evening or a cup of coffee in the morning.
