It was very clean. The creek was great. I was out every morning drinking my coffee. Great location, we loved the small town of Franklin. Loved the shopping and restaurants.
The cabin was very nice and the little creek in the backyard is great.The only problem we had was that Vrbo did not give us the correct phone number for the owner and it made checkin difficult. On the day we were leaving to come there we could not communicate with the owner to assure we were good to come. Made for an anxious day.
My husband and I had a relaxing and refreshing stay at the little gray cottage! The stream was peaceful and the location was quiet, yet located close enough to amenities like the grocery store for convenience. April was a very helpful host! We will definitely stay again!
Really enjoyed the little gray cottage. Loved the peaceful atmosphere with the creek running. Very clean.

Great location and many really nice amenities included that were thoughtful and very welcoming. Creek sounds were relaxing and added to the ambience. Bed was very comfortable. The screened porch was surprisingly large for the size of the cottage. We hope to return. Great hiking and waterfalls and vistas so close to the cottage. We really enjoyed our stay
I stayed here for two nights, and they were the two most peaceful nights I've had in ages. The bed is lovely. The creek makes a lovely sound. I enjoyed it immensely.

I'm sure glad you "found" everything. I was concerned because there are just some things you can't do without.
If you ever need a quick escape, remember us!
My son and his wife stayed the weekend here to celebrate their anniversary and loved it. The house is super cute and the babbling brook out back is awesome. Close proximity to Highlands and Frankin. Would definately recommend.
