Historic Blakely house is on Natchez Street and 1 mile to downtown Franklin. The Natchez Street area represents a part of the land that was the place of the Battle of Franklin. It was once an oasis for many segregated owned and operated businesses for over 100 years. Franklin has greatly grown over the years and now is on recent lists like Big 7 Travel's "Most Charming Small Towns Across America". Downtown Franklin is a vibrant blend of historic preservation and modern sophistication. Just 14 miles from Nashville, you’ll find an oasis of Southern hospitality housed in a 16-block historic district of award-winning antique shops, brick-and-mortar gift and book stores, fashion-forward boutiques, privately owned art galleries, lovingly restored homes, and more.
We only allow dogs. A $95 pet fee will be charged for any guests bringing their dog. Please notify us if you are planning on bringing your pet. This will be billed separately.
