Bruce went above and beyond in his rental to make you feel at home. The space was in pristine condition and smelled very clean. He labeled the remotes, cabinets, light switches, etc. which was wonderful. There was no searching or difficulty finding or using anything. The rental is absolutely precious with is eclectic decor. The king size bed was extremely comfortable. Pillows were wonderful as well. His towels were top quality and he even has a container for extra bathroom supplies you may have forgotten. There was more than enough “starter” supplies for the rental. He has thought of everything one might need when away from home. His neighborhood was easy to find and very quiet. Loved his driveway, there was one way in and one way out. Also, rental is close to town and very convenient. The only complaint I have is that we couldn’t stay longer! I have rented many places and this has been the best!! Definitely would rent from Bruce again!

Very nice place, lots of room in a quiet neighborhood. Spent some time on the front porch one afternoon. The only issue was that the WiFi went out during the stay, but there was a decent cell signal. We will definitely plan on booking it when we return to Franklin.

Great little hideaway within Franklin!

Accommodations were more spacious than expected. Bruce was a great communicator and we loved our say. It’s so close yet you feel hidden away inside the neighborhood. Love the quick trip into town but yet not feeling like you’re in the middle of the city. Beautiful landscaping on the property make it all that much more of a great hideaway. Will definitely stay here again!

Perfection

This was the perfect stay for me. I come on a business trip twice a year, and the location, speed of the Wi-Fi, and hospitalities were exceptional! As everyone else says here, I agree with it all, Bruce has the sweetest heart, the best green thumb ever, and makes certain you stay is the best possible. I will most definitely be returning and am definitely looking forward to my next visit. Also, for those who are a little nervous about driveways. This one is a touch steep, but once you go up it once or twice you have it down. It’s easy. This is coming from someone who is not so seasoned on driving in the mountains.

Pleasant Hill Getaway.

My wife and I stayed here for a three day getaway and absolutely loved the place. The place was clean, comfortable and stocked with everything you would need on your vacation. I would definitely recommend Pleasant Hill Getaway and would stay here again should we return to the Franklin, Nantahala area. Thank You.
