About this property

Spotless Cottage in Gorgeous Setting, Pet Friendly

In rural Franklin nestled under amongst the rolling hills and cow pastures, you will find this absolute treasure of a guesthouse. Located on an immaculate 6-acre property, this little house welcomes guests of all backgrounds for a luxurious stay only about 15 minutes from the beautiful, quaint downtown Franklin, Tennessee - recently rated one of the best towns in the USA. We have outfitted it with all the best materials and provide the amenities that make your stay special - like luxurious sheets and towels, a ready and waiting coffee pot, sometimes even freshly-baked muffins or bread. Come and stay with us to experience vacation rentals as they should be! L

Within 10-15 minutes of Hatcher Dairy, Arrington Vineyards, the Barn at Sycamore Farms, New Approach School for Jewelers, Williamson County Ag Center, Downtown Franklin, Cool Springs, Brentwood, I-65, I-840, I-24, Spring Hill, Columbia, College Grove, Arrington, Leiper's Fork, Murfreesboro, and more. An easy drive takes you to all that Nashville has to offer including the Nashville Predators, the Tennessee Titans, Nashville Soccer Club MLS, the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Ryman, the Grand Ole Opry, Opry Mills, the Honky Tonks of Broadway, Vanderbilt University, Green Hills Mall, and so much more. 30 minutes on the interstate will have you in Murfreesboro as well for the Miller Coliseum, MTSU, or other events happening there.

The cottage, which was once a pole barn and then an art studio, has been recently remodeled into a delightful, open space with a very large bedroom, a walk-in closet, a full-sized washer and dryer, a beautiful bathroom, a living room with leather furniture, television with streaming services, stereo speakers with Bluetooth, dining area, and complete kitchen with walk-in pantry. The space features beautiful vaulted ceilings and huge picture windows facing the north so there is continuous beautiful light in the cottage. From experience, the owners know that it can be very difficult to find a high end rental property that is small and sized for just a couple of people! They are delighted to bring this cottage to market and help fill that gap! The bedroom has a roller shade in case you desire a bit of privacy, although there is nobody around except the deer. It is completely handicap accessible throughout, and we are extremely proud to often host wheelchair-bound guests.

The owners live on the property in the main house but rarely interact with guests. Dogs are welcome to come and stay, and with coordination with the owners, may enjoy the beautiful property. There are rabbits and chickens on the property so guests often create a delicious breakfast with fresh eggs. A beautiful little patio with twinkle lights is a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffee or a nice glass of wine in the evening. The grounds are perfectly manicured and make a delightful backdrop for guests to enjoy watching the wildlife in this remarkable place.

Frequently seen wildlife on the property includes deer, wild turkeys, foxes, and hawks. Every so often one is lucky enough to spot an owl. Many guests find the wildlife, peaceful setting, and quiet surrounds to be extremely therapeutic.

Guests are invited to bring their own pets (dogs and cats, others with prior approval) to enjoy the property as well. There is a pet fee.

Important note: Do NOT book if you are bringing a trailer or a UHaul truck without contacting us first. If you show up with either without our prior notice we will not honor your reservation !! This is for your and our safety.

Judy's Studio

This is a great property. It's a little rural but still close to Franklin. We stayed a week and were wonderfully surprised by the quality and attention to detail. Judy has provided everything you need including fresh eggs from the hen house. It's quiet and has a very comfortable bed. During the storms they even invited us to their home to shelter.

The BEST

We were visiting friends in Arrington, but didn’t want to stay with them. This quiet tuck-away was perfect! We always take everything but the kitchen sink with us, but we certainly didn’t need to in this case. Over-the-top provisions, including fresh eggs and individual toothbrush kits if you forgot yours. Thanks to these hosts who obviously care about their property and their guests.

Beyond expectations

My wife and I were on a short weekend get-a-way at the end of the holiday season. We had long wanted to visit the Franklin area and we called this short visit a reconnaisance trip to check it out. The Iglesita (little chapel, as it is called by the owners) was a highlight of the trip. It surpassed our expectations. The pictures are very accurate. The little chapel is cozy, super clean and wonderfully decorated, situated on a serenely beautiful property. We were so comfortable there. Yes, we want to come back to the Franklin area for a proper trip, and when we do, we will certainly want to stay here again. Thanks to the wonderful hosts.

Pleasant!

Very pleasant alternative to a hotel, especially traveling with a dog. It was quite suitable for a couple, but not more than 2 guests…which was what I was looking for. It’s a beautiful renovation of a pole barn, very tastefully done architecturally with modern comforts. It was clean & well appointed. Not much interaction with the hosts, but we arrived to a warm welcome note, calming music, cookies, fresh eggs and a few doggy treats. Overall, a pleasant break during our long road trip.

Overall very nice stay. Little did we know it would happen on a weekend when the area felt the effects of a hurricane. Rain rain and more rain prevented us from exploring the property. House was as adervitsed but didn’t realize owners were closer than neighbors to us. Felt a little big brotherish. Overall a great stay.

This is our 2 nd time at this property. What a beautiful tranquil place that is peaceful and away from the hustle and bustle. We enjoy exploring Franklin and the surrounding countryside, then coming back here to rest up. The host provides all essentials that you may need.

Amazing!

Everything about our stay was amazing. The property, the host, the location, and the amenities were all spectacular. My spouse got fresh eggs each morning, there were homemade cookies upon check in, and the dogs enjoyed running the property. It was very relaxing in the evenings to sit outside and watch the fireflies. I was blown away by how hospitable the hosts were. Everything we needed for our stay was provided.
