About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

In The Heart Of Historic Downtown Franklin

Nestled in the original five block square of Historic Downtown Franklin, you will be able to walk to the Square, the Franklin Theater, and all the charm of Main Street in less than five minutes. It is faster to walk than to drive! Truly, one of the most convenient locations available. The Franklin Guest House is a converted garage that has been renovated into a delightful guest house. The bedroom provides a peaceful night's sleep with its king size bed. Adjoining the bedroom is a full bath with a shower and jetted soaking tub combination.

There is a fully-equipped and updated kitchen with granite counter tops and tile backsplash. The dining area and living room's cathedral ceiling and skylights give this room an aura of beauty and warmth, and the sleeper sofa will accommodate two more guests! For your use, you will also find a new Whirlpool front loading washing machine and a front loading dryer. There is an extra 1/2 bathroom off the living area. There is a desk area for working guests with a WiFi speed of 1200 MbPS. This guest house is a one of a kind! From its lovely decor to its convenient location, you will find that your new home away from home exemplifies the graciousness of Franklin, Tennessee!

Fall visit
This was the perfect spot for our visit to Franklin. The cottage is cozy and had everything we needed. Check-in was convenient. A very short walk to downtown restaurants and stores and an easy drive to Nashville.

This is our second stay at this guest house and we love it. Our 2 Westies travel with us and there are plenty of parks within walking distance of the rental. We love visiting Franklin and this rental is exceptional in every way! We loved walking to the awesome restaurants in downtown Franklin and not having to worry with parking our car! Susan is a great host! We can’t wait to return!!

Charm and comfort
We absolutely loved our stay in Franklin, TN. We were not familiar with the area and were so grateful to be in Franklin. Very close to Nashville but so much quieter. There was a street festival happening when we were there so we were able to join in the festivities which was great. Shops and restaurants in the downtown area are within easy walking distance. Susan was more than gracious and we appreciated being able to stay there.

Perfect Getaway
A friend and I stayed 2 nights in this beautiful Franklin cottage. Everything was perfection. A block from historic Franklin’s downtown. Easy walk with beautiful neighborhoods, great restaurants and shopping. Convenient but not in the hustle and bustle of downtown Nashville. Will definitely plan on staying here again.

Excellent host, location, and accommodations!
Great location! Nearly everything was within walking distance. Two teen girls loved being able to come and go as they pleased, and I appreciated not having to worry about their safety. The hostess was very communicative, and offered the place to us several hours early. I would definitely book this place again!

The host, Susan, is very welcoming and helpful. The cottage is exactly as pictured - cozy, comfortable, clean, and in the perfect location to walk to all the shops and restaurants on Franklin’s Main Street. The king size bed is especially comfortable. We highly recommend this property.

Weekend away
This was such a wonderful experience! The property was exactly what we expected and was absolutely charming! It’s located within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants in historic Franklin and is truly just a couple of blocks away. There was no reason for us to use our car when we stayed in Franklin. It’s a short and easy drive to Nashville (we also spent some time there). The property was very clean and our host made sure we had everything we needed. We highly recommend this property and will book again if we plan another trip to the area.
