About this property

The Nook: a Trendy, Upscale, Getaway

For those wanting a true Franklin experience, you have found your spot. With plenty of natural light, a throughly clean environment and thoughtful details, you will be able to unwind and enjoy your stay. Conveniently located less than a mile from downtown Franklin and minutes from grocery stores, coffee shops and restaurants.

The guest house is newly renovated with plenty of natural light. It has a walkway to the right of the driveway, leading you to your private entrance. The loft is located upstairs. We also provide a hair dryer and iron for your traveling convenience.

We are always available for a text or a phone call during your stay! We love the Franklin area and would love to help you have the best possible experience.

We live in a quiet neighborhood that is family friendly. Close to parks, coffee shops and restaurants.

The guesthouse is set back from the main house above a two car garage. Guests who book "The Nook" area allowed to park two cars. The parking spaces for the Nook are in front of the left garage door and then you can park a car directly behind your other car. Again on the left side and also not blocking the main driveway.

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!
