My husband and I were traveling last week and took a tour of Rippavilla. Sheila was AWESOME! We enjoyed our visit. Thank you!
Our tour guide, Bill, did an exceptional job detailing the Civil War events that happened at SpringHill specifically at Rippa Villa. I appreciated the sensitivity with which he spoke about the enslaved peoples for which the war was fought. The house is in restoration stage which doesn’t disappoint us since we’ve renovated historic homes and like to see the progress. If you are touring all three historic homes… Rippa Villa, Carter House and Carnton, I suggest you tour in that order (but you can go in any order). We are history buffs and we highly recommend all three of the tours. All three tour guides were the best we’ve experienced at any sites we’ve visited.
Very interesting, well worth a visit. The guide Kristi had so much knowledge and interest in the the house and battle of Franklin that is was contagious. I went to find out about the house and left wanting to read more about the civil war and various battles. The house is huge and stunning. The rooms are being renovated and I cannot wait to go back one day to see it finished.
