"Everything went smooth since the booking to the stay. We liked the cleanliness of the place and the location. The only thing we could suggest is to replace the shampoo and conditioner with something easier to open, because the poly bag seal is really hard to tear it. Thank you"

Amazing place
"This place was amazing. The creek running through the property is awesome. The bridge ro cross to.the fire pits is what sets this spot in a place of its own. We are already planning another trip. Super large bedrooms and the tub upstairs is great for a relaxing bath."

Downtown Franklin was very nice to walk around. Plenty of shops and restaurants. People were very friendly and helpful.

The Christmas decorations were nice. I like the small town feel. We were there for an anniversary party for my husband’s parents and spent our time with them.

3/5 - Okay

Franklin is an unremarkable city. It has what you need and seemed like a perfectly safe place, but there's nothing exciting about it.
