I was able to leave my car parked for the weekend and walk to the event in the little downtown area. Cute little cottage, with everything I needed. Mark is just the nicest man, and I hope to meet his wife when I return to explore more of the area. somtharea.

Charming Franklin unit
A well appointed one room guesthouse unit in Franklin, and close to many things. Owner was very easy to work with and very responsive. The unit was quiet, well decorated, and quite comfortable to be in. A humidifier is badly needed because the unit is very dry though. Overall, a very nice stay.!

We were building a house so our stay was over a month long. Quite unusual. The owners are on the property and were very responsive to any issues we may have had. Great location and a quaint setting. Had access to a grill and plenty of parking. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A Pleasant Stay
From beginning to end, our stay at the Captains Quarters was a positive experience. With an arrival later than anticipated, the door was unlocked, lights were on, and we were greeted warmly by the owner. This sweet property is in a beautiful neighborhood, it has everything you need, and is close to downtown Franklin, Leipers Fork and many historical landmarks. We highly recommend this property.
