Highly recommend!

If the location isn't fabulous enough, let the beautifully styled and immaculate space help you select this property. We spent a friends weekend there, and were impressed with every aspect of our stay! I'm a local real estate agent, and will be adding this property to my recommendations for out-of-state clients looking for a comfortable stay while they explore all that Franklin has to offer.

Beautiful Home in Beautiful Franklin

We stayed for a week and could not have found a more cozy accomodation. The decor was charming, the beds super comfortable, and the walk into town a very easy 10 minute stroll. Our parents stayed in the other unit which made our family reunion even that much more delightful.

Amazing Property!

My wife and I stayed for a few days on our way to visit family in the Midwest. We’ve stayed in a number of VRBO properties over the past several years in various parts of the country. This spot is without a doubt one of the best. The house was spotless and just as it looks in the pictures. The location is perfect - an easy walk to downtown Franklin, which is charming. The neighborhood is quiet and picturesque. If we could rate this higher, it would be easily well-deserved. Matt provides an outstanding experience and wonderful property. If we come back through the area, we would stay again and again.

Franklin Cottage Getaway

Where is the perfect location for an annual family gathering when you live in Michigan and Colorado? Nashville of course! Finding a quiet getaway location for our first trip to Nashville was easy when we found this perfect cottage to relax and enjoy family. Conveniently located to all the entertainment amenities offered in the area while walking distance to historic downtown Franklin. This charming cottage is pristine, comfortably well-equipped, and stocked respectfully. Matt was a fabulous host with quick responses (other hosts take note of how it should be done!) The Cottage is our favorite VRBO home and we will definitely stay here again. Hurry and book this home for your next trip! You won't be disappointed.

This property is beautiful. Wonderful location, wonderful home. Does not have many amenities- ie Kleenex, spices if cooking, soaps, lotions. BUT- it did exceedour expectations. The owner did check that we left on time parking across the street and waiting. Kind of disconcerting. Wonderful town- people in community were so so so friendly! Thank you for letting us stay!

Another great stay at Garden Gate Cottage.

This was the second time we have stayed at GGC. Matt is a wonderful host, and responded quickly to any of our questions. The unit is just lovely. My husband and I, along with our daughter and son-in-law, enjoyed the close proximity to downtown, The Factory, and the quiet street is a huge plus. We hope to stay here again the next time we visit beautiful Franklin.

Adorable cottage!

My friend and I stayed while we attended a conference. What a sweet little place to come home to! It was very clean, Matt was easy to work with and the porches with rocking chairs were the perfect places to unwind and/or start our day with a cup of coffee. We highly recommend!

We had the most amazing stay! We stayed here for 10 days and eloped. Matt and Kara were very responsive and accommodating to us. They treated us so well and we are so happy we got to enjoy this space. I’d been eyeing it for a while now! They are an amazing team with what they have created. We hope to be back again and are so thankful for the memories made!
