Best Host Ever

We were absolutely pleased with our accommodations and the flexibility of our host. We had a previous rental that did not meet our expectations and when I reached out to Ben, he immediately accommodated us with short notice! His properties are absolutely beautiful and comfortable! Can't say enough about this host! He is an absolute gem! 💯. Sincerely, Dan and Lynn

Celebrating birthday at Graceland

Everything about Ben’s home was perfect. Very clean and cozy. About 15 minutes away from Graceland by car. Graceland is definitely worth going to but make early reservations and get VIP tickets. We spent nearly 6 hours there. The street the house is on is quiet and pretty safe. There’s a local bar restaurant named Huey’s that has excellent food and service. If you decide to go to the popular Beale street be extremely careful and go during the day. That area unfortunately is extremely dangerous. Other than Beale street, we had such a wonderful time. So many good places to eat.

Terrific

This is a fabulous place for a couple to stay who want 2 bathrooms adjacent to the master bedroom. The bed is quite comfortable. The location is quiet and feels safe and Overton Square is right around the corner. TAMBOLI’s Pizza & Pasta is worth getting in the car and making a 3 minute drive. We will definitely be coming back.

Anniversary

The throw mats in the bathrooms could hv been washed! There could have been more curb appeal in front and backyard of the cottage. Overall the cottage really felt like home!!! Ben was very helpful! He always responded to my messages ASAP! I really would stay there again if I am ever in Memphis again….

Great Sister Trip to Memphis

We enjoyed Graceland , midtown and Beale St. We suggest replacing the carpet in master bedroom and master bath or tossing them out. Other then that the house was clean.
