The was spectacular, everything was very clean. We meet the cleaning staff and were awsome. Great place to stay with all the comforts of home and very pet friendly.
The location was great and within a few miles of all of our relatives in Franklin. The house was spotless! Location was somewhat secluded (a plus for me!) and quiet. I had excellent communication with the host. We will definitely consider this property for a future stay.
We all thouroghly enjoyed our stay. The home is cozy and convenient to everything. We especialy enjoyed being able to bring our fur baby. We look forward to staying here in the future. Thank You!!

From the owner:"Thanks for the great review! I'm glad you and your fur baby enjoyed your stay and look forward to having y'all come back."
The area is awesome for day hikes and shopping. We were out every day. Very convenient from this location. We felt at home at the end of the day, enjoying the beautiful western sunset and food
Your lovely home allowed our family to have a much-needed respite. Everything was perfect. The home is well-appointed and we loved using the firepit to make smores. And the view - amazing!
Our short stay in Franklin was great. The house was better than described. It was immaculate and well stocked with everything you needed. The views off the back deck especially sunsets were fabulous. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again. Communication was great and helpful. Thank you for sharing your home we throughly enjoyed our visit to Franklin.

Wonderful Place to Stay
What a fantastic place to stay for a chance to get away. There's a stunning view from the cabin. We enjoyed sitting outside and enjoying the scenery. We also had fun looking at all of the decorations in the cabin. Great host who responded quickly. No issues. So happy that we came and would like to go back.
Peter's home is just beautiful, relaxing and peaceful. Everything was clean and well stocked. Arrival and access to the home was very simple and we did not have any issues.
Peter responded very quickly to my questions prior to my stay.

Our stay was fantastic. Mr. Peter was very accommodating. He was prompt to respond to text and to answer phone calls.- The house was VERY clean. It has a cozy feel, which was perfect for our getaway and if you like to hit the Casino it's only 40 minutes away. I would definitely recommend staying with Peter and plan to book with him again.
Long weekend stay. I chose site due to location near visiting horse farm. Nice older home in established neighborhood, stairs with sturdy handrail. Would have been easier to locate if I had gotten in before dark from Florida 😂. Code did not work on door on arrival but owner returned call quickly and solved the problem so we were happy with him! Thank you.
