We stayed at the cottage for our mother-daughter weekend. It's cozy, decorated with style, and conveniently located if you want to be able to walk to Beale Street, The Civil Rights Museum and other attractions.Like others, we enjoyed breakfast at The Arcade & had enough to take back to the cottage for breakfast the next day.I think my favorite feature, honestly, was the ceiling. Don't skip this place if you're looking for a place to lay your head while visiting historic downtown Memphis.

Rhonda was a very attentive and helpful host! The property was a perfect getaway down a quiet street, and inside was cozy and supplied well with everything you could’ve needed to feel at home!

Terrific, classy little place. My first time to Memphis had a really fun time. Didn't know the area at all but this was a perfect place to explore the historic South Main District and easy walk just about 6-8 blocks from Beale Street. The cottage was super clean and that is a big thing for me is cleanliness. I felt at home there and had no issues with the property at all. I felt safe and secure behind a locked gate in the front of the property. I spent 4 days on my own just walking the area from the Mississippi river just a few blocks away as well, to the Arcade Restaurant and Ernestine and Hazel right around the corner, to the Blues Hall of Fame Museum 2 blocks away, the Orpheum Theater, and then of course world famous Beale St. I walked back and forth each day going to Blues City Cafe or BB Kings and listen to unbelievable blues, soul, and rock music day and night. I would highly recommend this location for a fun and interesting time. The craziest part is that you are literally facing the Civil Rights Museum, which has a fantastic exhibit. You can see the site where MLK was assassinated at the Loraine Hotel from in front of the property. Also a cool little porch to sit out on if you want to. Rhonda was nice enough to meet me at the property with the keys and showed me around the place even though my plane was 4 hours late and didn't get in until 1030 pm. I appreciated that very much and she was available if needed.
