    Host was fantastic. Chocolates, and candy on the beds. A bottle of wine on the dining table. The cottage is a charming 2 bedroom old house, within a 14 minute walk to downtown Franklin.

    The Kelso cottage is just like staying at grandma’s house – if grandma was cool! Furnished with midcentury modern furniture with a boho twist, this charming home gives off a relaxed vibe. It’s well stocked with practical amenities that minimize trips to the store and helps you settle in right away. The linens are top notch. Our host Christa was amazing, very responsive, and accommodating. Thank you for having us, our stay was delightful. We highly recommend!!

    We spent the weekend here with our two year old. It was a quick walk to town in a beautiful neighborhood. We had dinner in downtown Nashville and it was an easy uber ride as well.

    Cozy mid-century vibe. Very comfortable. Our small dog enjoyed the yard and walking in the neighborhood. Kitchen well stocked, new appliances and everything worked properly. Off-street parking for one vehicle in the driveway. Outdoor fire pit with seating. Pleasant walk through historic neighborhood to downtown shopping in Franklin. Short ride to Nashville. Good communications with owner. We visited with friends that have their home in Franklin.

    We were looking for a few days of relaxing during a longer trip to Nashville and this was perfect. Adorable cottage decorated so well. Loved lounging by the fire pit in the backyard or in the chairs on the front patio. The kitchen was small but had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable. We had a few issues during our stay but the owners responded quickly. Should be a new bathroom reno which will be awesome for future guests!

    The neighborhood was beautiful, the house was cozy and clean. The backyard could have used some nicer patio furniture, fire pit and lights. Wonderful location within walking distance of everything we wanted to do.

    The cottage was clean and homey and inviting. We loved how close to town it was. Everything we could possibly need was provided. We didn’t take advantage of the fire pit as the evenings were very warm. We’d book again.
