Saturday Night is Yours:
Saturday evening is yours to enjoy. Dinner in downtown Franklin, a stroll through one of the area’s beautiful parks, or a quiet night at the hotel—whatever feels right for the two of you. Nashville is close if you want the lights; Franklin is right there if you want the charm.
