The space
As soon as you step inside Franklin Cottage, you will see why it won a Historic Preservation Award. The kitchen blends traditional style with newer appliances & granite island, and you’ll love the master suite & master bath w/ tiled shower. The other guest rooms are also comfortably styled and the additional full bath features an antique clawfoot tub. This home welcomes you with high-quality furnishings throughout, highlighted by original details throughout and modern amenities such as newer kitchen appliances, central heat & air, flat-screen LED televisions, cable, high-speed WiFi and more.

If you're visiting in the summer and fall, we have a well-equipped back porch and outdoor space to grill, relax, enjoy the evening, and play some outdoor games.

In the colder winter months, we have a cozy fireplace, luxurious warm bedding and plenty of indoor entertainment to relax and enjoy after an adventurous day.
