This is a great little cottage in the perfect location making Franklin super walkable if you don't want to have a car. The walk into town is lovely and the park to get the history is a short distance too. The perfect place!

Cozy, near Main St & Seamless

This property was exactly as the pictures depicted. It was very quaint, easy to get to and check-in and out was a breeze. We stayed for one night and it was the perfect way to start my 50th birthday adventure! One thing I would recommend for anyone staying there is to bring an eye mask, as the outside lights light up the bedroom. If lights aren’t an issue for you, then no problem!Thank you for a great stay!

The VRBO unit was represented well as advertised. I wouldn't walk to town unless it was cooler weather! It was very convenient as we were exploring Franklin for a day. Franklin Tn offers a variety of things to do. We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Stay

The Nook is absolutely cozy and a nice walking distance from historic downtown Franklin. I brought my granddaughter to Tennessee for a road-trip and she was especially delighted with the Nook. Thinking about decorating her own home soon, she got ‘great inspiration’ from the tasteful and welcoming decor. Loved the murals in the yard! Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Super convenient location, very cute property.

This was a great place to stay for a conference in Franklin. The property was conveniently located just outside of the main street area of Franklin. Definitely walkable, but also a very cheap Uber/Lyft ride. The property was comfortable, clean and well-designed. There were snacks and coffee which I really appreciated, as someone who forgot to bring my usual travel rations! Overall, I would definitely stay here again. The price, convenience, and comfort all made for a great stay!
