Wonderful trip

Whitfield hideaway was everything advertised and more! It was clean, beautifully decorated and well equipped for everything that you need for a quick weekend getaway or a more extended stay. Jeannie was great to work with and very responsive when needed. The beds were comfortable, the shower was great and there were plenty of big fluffy towels. We hated when it was time for us to leave and can’t wait until we get to come stay again!!

Friends getaway

This place was amazing!! It was so beautiful and clean inside! Special touch was walking inside to Christmas tree and decorations with stockings that had our names on them! The whole stay was perfect and we enjoyed our time there. My mother just moved to Franklin and when there is a bigger group of us visiting her we will book this place every time. I can’t wait for the next time I can stay here!

Cozy

We loved this home. It is beautifully decorated. We were in town for a weekend event and sadly just slept there. I would have loved to be able to spend a week there. The beds were very comfortable. We all loved them. Would definitely stay again!

Spring break

We had a great time exploring Franklin and surrounding areas. We enjoyed all the hiking trails and waterfalls nearby. The house was close to both shopping and waterfalls and had everything we needed. Excellent long weekend!

We stay here as many times as we can

We love staying here. It’s peaceful and quiet. Only problem I had this time was there wasn’t any pot holders to take my food out of the oven. Also if you love to walk which i go for walks everyday , don’t go to the end and turn left I almost got attacked by a big black dog. I was petrified. So. Carry some bear spray to protect yourself from this dog. We will be back hopefully in 2026.
