Such a cute guest house that sits behind a big historic home in a very beautiful historic neighborhood. If I were to live in Memphis, this would be the neighborhood I would pic. Felt very safe and the owner on property is very nice and helpful. We were only there 1 day as we traveled through for an overnight roadtrip. It’s hard to find places that don’t require 3 day minimum. (At least places that you’d want to stay!) super cute setup they have there.

The communication was well beyond what I expected. The room was cozy and priced below what I have paid for similar accommodations. Street side parking concerned me, but the neighborhood was great and we had no issues.

Exactly what we wanted!

My wife and I planned a three day trip to Memphis to explore and see some sites such as Graceland, Sun Studios, and Beale Street. These were the perfect accommodations. It was private and had plenty of room for the two of us. Located in a safe neighborhood, we were able to walk to the Memphis Zoo and local restaurants and were just a few blocks from Overton Park which is a great place for walks/hikes. Everywhere else we went was a short Uber ride. Katy is a great host. Very friendly and responsive and gave great suggestions.We highly recommend and would stay again!

Lovely, private, peaceful

The neighborhood is gorgeous and very safe! Less than 5 minutes to the zoo, art museum, park, and plenty of restaurants! The back house is spacious and serves all needs with a stocked kitchen and bathroom! Private and peaceful, which is just what I was looking for during my weekend getaway! Great host too!

Neat little spot

Very cute and tidy backhouse in a great area. Can walk to zoo and Brooks museum from here in no time. The door is a little fickle and hard to open at times because of its locking mechanism but it didn’t detract from my overall visit.

Great location and quiet street!

You can’t beat this location. Right at Overton Park and Brooks Art Gallery and the zoo. A short walk from Overton Square and Cooper-Young neighborhoods, quick drive to downtown, quick drive in the other direction for inner East. Really wonderful for one or two persons. I was alone, and it was really comfortable. Easy parking right out front as well.
