Charming Franklin unit
A well appointed one room guesthouse unit in Franklin, and close to many things. Owner was very easy to work with and very responsive. The unit was quiet, well decorated, and quite comfortable to be in. A humidifier is badly needed because the unit is very dry though. Overall, a very nice stay.!

We were building a house so our stay was over a month long. Quite unusual. The owners are on the property and were very responsive to any issues we may have had. Great location and a quaint setting. Had access to a grill and plenty of parking. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The Captains Quarters was perfect for my stay and was everything the pictures reflected in the listing. The owners were very friendly and helpful when needed. I will definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises. It was an easy walk to Historic Main Street and the downtown shops and restaurants.

This was a relaxing weekend. The Captains quarters was nicely decorated and so homey. We enjoyed being greeted by the host, Mark, and he helped the takeout gentlemen find us for our dinner. I highly recommed this place, and plan to come back next year!

A Pleasant Stay
From beginning to end, our stay at the Captains Quarters was a positive experience. With an arrival later than anticipated, the door was unlocked, lights were on, and we were greeted warmly by the owner. This sweet property is in a beautiful neighborhood, it has everything you need, and is close to downtown Franklin, Leipers Fork and many historical landmarks. We highly recommend this property.

Southern Charm
The location is in the center of a very quaint special town and the property is a guest house behind a typical old time Southern majestic style home.
All in all, our experience was comfortable and enjoyable. The pictures pretty much matched the advertisement. I would like to suggest, however, that there were areas that were not as clean as I would have expected from the pictures, including their sitting porch outside. The kitchen was lacking in its amenities. For one example, there was only one fry pan that was warped and every morning that we used it, we had to hold it a certain way otherwise the food would roll to one side. There was no dishwasher or disposal. There were also opened mouse trap boxes around the bathroom vanity that had not been removed.
We did appreciate a nice stack washer and dryer.
