Very quiet and private/ perfect place for a get away from the city
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2025
The home was very clean and in great condition. The drive to get to the house felt long and remote but the house was only 20/30 min from Franklin, and 40ish from downtown Nashville. There wasn't great signage letting you know which house was the right one, but once you find it it's easy. Very private property, we didn't pay for the hottub but in hindsight we would have. The owners were very communicative as well, so everything was easy.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
This was our honeymoon. We started out with the love shack. The hot tub did not work for the first three days we were there, then because I guess lack of rain we had sediment from the wells coming up through the toilets and the showers. The first three days at the shack, we were plunging the toilets and the showers. They moved us to a different cabin. That cabin was a bit nicer, but we went through an hour and a half of stress with Jonathan The owner because he did not want to give us an extra night of stay for all of the inconvenience we had gone through Including the extra expenses we paid for. Finally, he did and probably because of his wife. There was a gentleman who did everything in his power to help us. his name was Wade. He is a wonderful wonderful person on that property. We also had to supply a tank of gas for the outside gas grill at the love shack that we never even got to use. And the grill in the kitchen in the new cabin was absolutely gross and dirty. Leanne was a very nice person to deal with as well. We probably will not return in the future.
