Perfect Retreat

This was the perfect place for us to retreat and do a Reiki training. It was away from all the typical distractions but close enough to Leipers Fork where we could leave Saturday night for dinner and hear some live music. Great property and outdoor spaces.

Cabin is correctly named! When you drive up, it reminds me of Snow White. And then you walk in and it is just so adorable and cozy. Beautifully decorated. The location is perfect. Close to Franklin and lots of hiking trails. Home is well stocked for our needs. My only regret is not using the hammock more. Definitely would like to come back.

Beautiful cabin in woods about 5 minutes outside of downtown Liepers Fork. Our family enjoyed the beauty of the forest and easy access to the local landmarks like Fox and Locke, where my husband even got to sing on stages during their open mic. Great experience all around.

A favorite chapter

Storybook cottage was the perfect place for us to revisit our Tennessee roots while celebrating our 35th Anniversary! The peaceful setting and close proximity to Leiper's Fork and Franklin gave us the opportunity to hear some fantastic country music and enjoy great southern foods. In our book of travels, our time at the cottage will always be a favorite chapter.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the cottage. A friend and I took a girl's getaway and couldn't have been happier. The grounds were pristine, and everything was clean. We didn't have any issues.

Our favorite Tennessee getaway by far!

This cottage is picture perfect! We had all of the amenities that we needed. The bed was extremely comfortable. The setting is beautiful and the location is ideal if you are wanting to be close to Leiper’s Fork. Just a couple of miles away. It is also about a mile 1/2 from the Natchez Trace Parkway. We spent every morning drinking coffee on the porch, listening to the leaves fall. This area is so beautiful in the fall! We will definitely be back!

Great country character and charm

The pictures don’t do the property justice. It is set in the country and detailed with simple elegance. It is absolutely a couples retreat house. The outdoor firepit ready with kindling and logs is a nice touch and the s’mores kit ready to go in the kitchen was a nice touch. My wife is interested in a return trip during fall colors to relax and read a book.
