The Space

I am a local contractor and designer who has taken this 1910 cottage and gutted it to the studs and made it a 2016 show place with attention to the details. Everything is new. Kitchen has gas cooking and is fully stocked with everything you need to cook a memorable meal. Cozy dining nook in kitchen has seating for four. 2 with king bed and private bath with walk in shower and the other with Queen bed and hall bath. Both with luxurious bedding and linens. 3 HDTV with cable,Apple TV,Netflix and WiFi provided to my guests. Back yard is fenced and provides a patio with comfortable seating. My goal in choices of finishes and furnishings was to provide better than a 5 star hotel quality me know if I accomplished my goal !! If I missed anything let me know and it will be provided.

Guest Access

It is all yours to use (one closet is locked for owners supply storage). One car driveway parking. Street parking directly in front of home available for additional parking. Keyless entry lock on front door makes access that much easier..

Interaction with Guests

I live one mile from home and am available immediate to resolve any issues that may arise.

The Neighborhood

The neighborhood is by far the biggest draw for all guest who chose my cottage for their stay. Location,location, truly can take a cab from airport to my cottage and walk to activities,restaurants and bars to fill a long weekend and never drive. For venturing out of the neighborhood, Uber is is easy to Downtown,Bass Pro,Beale Street and Graceland. If driving, ample parking provided.

Best in Memphis

The house is wonderful. Ben has done a great job! It is close to some awesome restaurants- BaBalu, Huey’s, Saltwater Crab. Convenient to downtown - it seemed everything we wanted to do was in between 2-5 miles away. Felt very secure and comfortable in the quiet neighborhood. We definitely would stay again if ever back in Memphis!!!

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.

We were absolutely pleased with our accommodations and the flexibility of our host.

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.
