About this apartment rental

Welcome to The Bunkhouse, and the private world of Dark Horse Estate. This
legendary property offers a one-of-a-kind experience. A perfect setting for friends and
families to unplug and reconnect.

This residence can accommodate four overnight guests in our adult oversized bunks.
Additionally, the Bunkhouse boasts an oversized luxury bathroom, walk-in closet, and a
private covered porch. Feel free to use the studio kitchen just down the hall. The
Bunkhouse is exclusively yours and can be accessed with an outside entrance. This
romantic one-of-a-kind get-away will exceed your expectations.

Your Property:
Dark horse estate is gracefully set in the rolling hills of Tennessee, just 5 miles north
from Franklin’s historic town square and 25 minutes from downtown Nashville. Beautiful
sunsets and lush mystic landscapes make this private sanctuary an exclusive
destination. As you stroll down to the river, you’ll find yourself breathing more deeply as
though you’ve been transported to a simpler time.

Guest Access
You’ll be staying on the first level of a 9000 sq. ft. hand crafted post and beam structure
housing three recording studios which have become home to many of the most
celebrated artists in the world. Shawn Mendes, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban, Alice in
Chains, Tim McGraw, Korn, Matchbox 20, Carrie Underwood, and Neil Diamond are
just a few of the artists who frequent Dark Horse estate. In fact, you’ll be sleeping in the
same bed as many of your favorite stars. So… during your stay, you’ll find yourself
among very good company!

You will have access to the lower kitchen just down the hall as well as the entire
grounds. Tours of the studios are available almost every day based on the recording
schedules. Whether you’re in town on business, a vacationer seeking an unforgettable
experience, or a platinum selling artist working on your next hit, The Bunkhouse is the
perfect destination for your secluded getaway.

Interaction with Guests
At Dark Horse Estate your privacy is top priority. Having said that, you might bump into
other guests as you explore the grounds. Every day is different with activity such as film
shoots, interviews and, of course, recording sessions. Sometimes you may be able to
hear "the creative process"; from these sessions inside the apartment. And while late night and early morning sessions are rare, (you know musicians)... it does happen occasionally. Please read our reviews and you’ll see that our guests are delighted with both the atmosphere and privacy.

Other details to note
Note: Once again please know that the Bunkhouse is located on the first level of our
9,000 sq. ft. (three level) studio building. During some private recording sessions,
certain areas of the studio building may be closed off to guests.

We utilized this property for a meeting for our Executive Leadership Team. The set-up of the house and all the bedrooms / bathrooms worked perfect for our team and is so beautiful. Robin, Austin and Emily were amazing to work with and were super responsive! We will definitely be back!

This was the most peaceful and enjoyable accommodations. Such welcome hosts- we felt very cared for. The location was perfect - with so much to enjoy just minutes away. Nashville was only 30 min away - but this property was the perfect TN experience. Already planning to return and enjoy the property more with just relaxing on the porch with a book and a good afternoon nap. Thank you to our hosts that made our stay with our friends so enjoyable.

As an amateur musician, and with my daughter learning to become a sound technician and producer, our stay at Dark Horse Studios was truly remarkable. The tour of the studios was captivating, and the staff's kindness made the experience even more enjoyable. Justin and Austin were exceptional hosts, with Justin providing valuable insights into the music industry and inspiring my daughter to pursue her musical career aspirations. Our time at Dark Horse Studios was nothing short of amazing - a place that is unique, eclectic, creative, and truly inspirational. We simply loved our time at the Dark Horse!!! For any artist, this is an opportunity that cannot be missed.

My wife and I had a great time in Franklin staying at the Dark Horse Recording Studio! Stayed in the bunkhouse and just loved it. Austin was very friendly and helpful. We brought our dog Cooper and it was a great place for a dog lots of land for him to roam and explore. We meet Robin the owner who was also very friendly and nice. Such a neat setting not one you find very often. Would recommend to anyone for a great get away from the ordinary! Thanks Dark Horse team we loved it! Jim

I am always looking for unusual places to stay other than the big hotel chains. My experiences this year vacation traveling staying in Vrbo homes and in this case at a recording studio where great musicians have recorded was a wonderful opportunity. Set in country settings away from big crowds and cities I was not disappointed…check out the website for Dark Horse in Franklin Tn
