Cozy stay in downtown Franklin
I really enjoyed my stay here. The house was centrally located to a lot of great places. Also walking distance to downtown with restaurants and shopping.

Spacious but poor location
The fact that it is in downtown is great, the exact location is very poor as it sits as the lone residence on a block of run down commercial buildings. The home is on a curve with limited sight lines, so it is difficult entering and exiting the driveway as traffic takes the curve quickly. This is not comforting for an elderly couple. The driveway is steep for an older person who is slightly disabled, as it is a steep walk and there is no sidewalk at the front door side of the building. The second entrance is a flight of stairs at the rear of the property going up to the second floor, also not easy for someone who is impaired. The home was built in 1940 but the interior is up-to-date, very spacious and has all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay, with the exception of the fact that one was initially unable to control the temperature as the thermostat is in the laundry room downstairs and controls both units. Host made accomodations for this. but it would have been nice to know in advance. There is a regular stream of single males using the driveway as a shortcut to Main Street, apparently from and to a local grocery store, not comforting. The ad gives an impression of a grassy backyard, but there is only a gravel alleyway between the home and the rear of a commercial building. The interior is quiet and comfortable but the location of the property is unacceptable. We would not book here again.

House in Franklin
We had a ball in town and visiting family locally. The House was in a great location to that. Short walks to restaurants in town and to a great park for out dogs. Communication with the owner was easy, prompt and helpful. We really felt at home even though we were there for a short time. Wonderful town, wonderful rental.

Property was fine. Surprised by the lack of amenities compared to the other properties that we’ve stayed at. We did leave behind a piece of luggage and they contacted us in a timely manner which we really appreciated.

Would return ...
House was convenient to town. Chloe was accessible to help with some initial problems. Property could use some cosmetic improvements (torn curtains, broken blinds, e.g.) Icemaker was not working, so some ice trays to make ice would help.

Very nice nice
We had a 2 night stay. Little confusing on the vrbo site when i booked it- thinking we were renting the basement with an outside entrance (owner had both up and down) because if the listed pictures only showed the basement entrance to the upper dwelling. But it worked out well. My husband and I were traveling with an 87 and 93 year old! They loved the idea of all the space of a 2 bedroom house, versus a hotel room. Thank you for making them feel at home!

Love Chloe!!
This was our second stay at Chloe's place, and we enjoyed it. It is a great value, close to many wonderful places, gorgeous rides, in town, but not on top of everything. It is in a perfect locale as far as we are concerned. It is comfortable, spacious, you can cook in, or dine out with ease, shop or go almost next door to the park. Maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but we love it!

Great location. Easy to find and easy access to where we needed to go. Beds were comfortable.
Ms. Chloe is a wonderful host! Any issues we had and there wasn't any, she took care of. Plenty of hot water and the washer and dryer worked great. This is not anyone's fault. The speed of the internet is very slow. We will be staying here again.

The living space was very accomodating. The home is located next to a park which is great when you travel with dogs. Close to downtown and numerous restaurants. The home does sit right on a curve in the road which was a little unsettling but overall it's a nice place. The owner is very quick to respond with any questions or concerns. We would definitely rent this place again in the future.
