About this villa rental

Welcome to the Governors Mansion in Clarksdale Mississippi. This Epic, Grandiose, and Stately mansion is only the. beginning of your Delta Blues adventure. Perfectly situated on the outskirts of downtown, 6 blocks from the famous Ground Zero and 7 blocks from the even more famous Reds.
Some people who come here even say they have tumbled back in time, but I do not think that is true. They have merely slipped sideways into a place they do not recognize, and may never understand.

Clarksdale Mississippi is truly a special place. My first trip was back in 2010 and it was instant love. Throughout the years ended up coming back 2 to 4 times a year (yes the Clarksdale vortex is REAL!) and almost on a whim and poorly thought out bet from a good friend I purchased this home. It was dilapidated and hadn't been lived in for over 12 years. The hard work began and almost a year later (may 2022) we opened the doors to what you will experience in this stunning home.
The space is epic and can sleep 18 comfortably. Grand foyer that leads into a parlor to the left and a sitting room to the right. A massive dinning room table that can comfortably sit 20 and a extremely large kitchen to accommodate the respective cooking arrangements for a large group (we even have a local catering option and you skip the cooking) As you look up before you start walking up the grand staircase you will see the stained glass windows. Upstairs you will find 6 bedrooms, 3 of them with built in full bathrooms, extremely large bedrooms all with large ceiling fans. A newly installed 4 industrial grade HVAC systems to keep you cool during the summers. A total of 6 fireplaces (soon all to be upgraded to gas) and a large laundry area in the back with 2 washers and dryers. SONOS wireless speakers throughout the house and fully operational wifi. In the backyard there is a 50,000 gallon pool with a large gas grill and a outdoor dining table.

We had an incredible stay at this historic mansion in Clarksdale! Our large group had more than enough room to spread out comfortably, and the house itself is full of charm, character, and history. It was the perfect place to gather together while still having plenty of space for everyone.The pool was one of the highlights of our trip. It was large, well-maintained, and the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring.Our host was fantastic from start to finish. They were incredibly friendly, quick to respond to any questions, and gave us wonderful recommendations for local restaurants, attractions, and hidden gems that made our trip even more memorable.If you have the chance, be sure to spend some time exploring downtown Clarksdale. It's packed with history, incredible music culture, and so many unique places to discover. If you're a fan of the blues, this town is an absolute must-visit.We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Clarksdale, whether you're traveling with family, friends, or a large group. We would gladly stay here again!

The home was very clean and the description was accurate. The host was extremely responsive and kind.The home is in an excellent location for accessing downtown Clarksdale.The home could use a bit of TLC - painting, etc. However, this did not detract from the overall enjoyment and we would rent this property again.

We rented this house for my mother in law’s 80th birthday. The house was perfect! There was plenty of room for everyone to relax and socialize. This home is very comfortable and so beautiful! We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend!

This house is absolutely amazing. Everything was perfect for our large group. So many bedrooms and sitting rooms, but the crown jewel is the dining room table...enough room for 20 or so of your closest friends to gather around and eat, play games, or just chat til the wee hours of the morning. My family and I will forever be grateful that we were able to all stay together during this difficult time.
