Welcome to The Bunkhouse, and the private world of Dark Horse Estate. This legendary property offers a unique experience. This residence can accommodate four overnight guests in our adult oversized bunks.

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 one-of-a-kind get-away will exceed your expectations.

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!

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 for your secluded getaway.

You will have private access to the Bunkhouse apartment and shared 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.

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 music from these sessions inside the apartment. And while late night and early morning sessions are rare, it does happen occasionally. Please read our reviews and you’ll see that our guests are delighted with both the atmosphere and privacy.

The Dark Horse Estate is located amid the pristine rolling hills of Franklin, Tennessee, just 17 miles south of downtown Nashville and three miles west of historic downtown Franklin.

Uber and taxis are available if you do not have a car.

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. Being an active recording studio, there is potential for noise. We highly encourage you to read our reviews!

PET POLICY:

We love dogs! We strive to keep our pet friendly homes just that, pet friendly!... by asking our guests to be conscientious about the impact their four-legged friend is having on the home, the property, and the neighbors.

OF PET OWNERS, WE ASK:

A one-time, non-refundable $75 fee per pet for four legged guests. This fee goes toward helping homeowners with the inevitable repairs needed for cumulative pet-wear-and-tear on their home. This is a cash fee, payable upon arrival.

We accept guests of the canine persuasion only ~ sorry, no feline friends, zebras, ferrets, parakeets, camels, etc.

In the home, dogs are not permitted on the beds, chairs, couches, or blankets. If you are unable to prevent this, please bring (clean!) sheets or blankets from home to put over the couches, bedding, and pillows.

If it’s rainy or muddy outside, please throw a dog towel that you provide on the floor by the doors. While some dog- friendly properties provide these towels, please bring your own. Please do not use the towels provided at the property to clean or dry your pets.

Additional cleaning charges will apply for yard clean-up, excessive pet hair, or messes requiring additional carpet, upholstery, or linen cleaning.

Pets may not be left alone in the home unless you have them kenneled or are 110% certain there will be no disturbing barking, scratched doors, or stained carpets. If needed, local pet boarding is available at Waggy Tails Pet Center.

Please understand that we are an active recording studio. Both the studio clients and other visiting guests are looking for privacy and relaxation, and the engineers and musicians are looking for a quiet place to work. We ask that you ensure there is no excessive barking. If you leave your dog unattended in the room and your dog’s barking causes a disturbance amongst other guests, we reserve the right to enter the room and try to calm the dog down. If the barking noise cannot be brought under control, we reserve the right to ask you to vacate the property without refund.

Franklin is home to this apartment. McLemore House and Franklin Theatre are local landmarks, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Westhaven Golf Club and The Square. Ready for a night out? Consider Westhaven Residents' Club and Franklin Square.
