What’s not to love about this place! Idyllic. Appreciate the fine attention to detail! Every space in this home was inviting. A quiet space for reflection and quality time with my spouse nestled amongst the trees! Didn’t want to leave!
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.
We had a fantastic relaxing weekend at Storybook Cottage. We last stayed here 9 years ago. Such a great space for enjoying your family, reading, relaxing outside, and enjoying quiet meals in either the quaint breakfast nook or fabulous sun porch!
Beautiful property offering privacy and beautiful and functional accommodations. Everything you could want or need and great location. Looking forward to another stay here.
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.
We enjoyed the peaceful and relaxing setting of Storybook Cottage. The cottage was well furnished and provided everything we needed for our stay. The hammock and fire pit were a lovely feature of this property. Thanks for providing a great space for others to enjoy.
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.
My friends and I loved this special little place. Everything was perfect. We will definitely keep this one on our "list" of places to visit again. Thank you!
Matthew was so helpful and communicative every step of the way. The house is in an incredibly peaceful and beautiful location, but just a few minutes from Leiper’s Fork village. It had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.
The house was perfect! It’s stunning with amazing attention to detail and in a quiet location! Great for a getaway but not the best if you’re wanting to go to/from Nashville several times. Otherwise, we loved it!
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.
Truly a Storybook Cottage! Beautiful wooded setting, amazingly comfortable bed, well appointed and adorably decorated!! Matt was quick to respond to a couple questions I had and was very accomodating!
Perfect little place away from it all to regroup and unwind.
We will definitely be returning!!
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. The property manager Matt was very accommodating and even let us check in early. We will be back for sure!
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!
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.
