Your drive to the action would be about 2-3 minutes were it not for the traffic lights.

My husband and I rented this property with two other couples. We were worried about the size based on the pictures, but the house was a lot bigger then we thought - and much nicer! It is in a very safe, upscale neighborhood. The house was very clean and we were very happy with the newly rentivated bathrooms and kitchen. I would definitally come back and recommend this propterty to others! It's only a $10-15 cab ride to downtown Memphis - which was perfect!

Several friends of mine and I rented this property so we could run in the St. Jude Memphis Marathon. I can't think of ONE thing that the place lacked. It had all amenities we needed, was in a great location, was SUPER CLEAN and just plain gorgeous. Quiet neighborhood, safe parking. LOVE LOVE LOVE!

A relaxing house on Mud Island
Guest: Australian visitors
(Perth Australia)
Date of Stay: 10/31/11
Review Submitted: 11/08/11
We had a delightful week in this lovely house on Mud Island in November 2011. The photos and description of the house don't really give the sense space you get in this extremely well appointed and comfortable house. We had everything we needed and the house was immaculate. The neighbourhood is safe and quiet and we just loved wandering the streets of this beautiful community. We found the neighbours to be extremely friendly and welcoming. We always walked over the bridge to Main Street and caught the funny old 1900s trollies to the attractions down Main Street, of which there are many. Naajee was very helpful and responsive. We would definitely recommend this house to our friends and relatives.
Owner response:We are so happy when our guests enjoy their stay here. We try to think of what is important to us as we travel, so we do unto others... We have had some awesome guests stay at this home. The housekeeper is beside herself when guests leave the place in such good order. In the time that this home has been rented there has been only one big scare. That was when a little league team checked in for a week. We were not informed of this until they arrived. We let them stay with our hearts in our mouths for the entire week. Much to our dismay they left the place in better shape than some adults and even tipped the housekeeper exactly $1.75. Okay, you can stop laughing now.
Recommended for:Age 55+, romantic getaway.
Great Location

We recently stayed here with a total of 6 people, and the accommodations worked out fine. The location was great and the house was very clean. The only drawback was that if our group wanted to watch tv or a movie, the only tv's were located in the bedroom/sleeping areas. There also was no dvd player to watch videos. Otherwise, it was a great stay!

We spent 3 days on Mud Island. This home was in a great location. Less than 5 miles from Beale Street and the neighborhood is very safe! We loved walking along the river on a sunny day. Mud Island also has a great coffee shop (great food). This is a great location for individuals who want to experience Memphis. The townhome was furnished with everything you could possibly need.
Owner response:Hoping all our past and future guests will decide to have a happy and prosperous 2011. "If it is to be , it is up to me"...

Perfect Rental in Memphis!!
Guest: The Edwards
(Apopka, FL)

Review Submitted: 09/07/10
The pictures show the home as beautiful....but to see this home in person is even MORE amazing! We recently spent several nights in Memphis to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary and vow renewal and two other couples joined us to share the rental home. There was more than enough space for all of us to sleep comfortably, and even an extra couch or two left over! The house was immaculate, quiet, and the kitchen was stocked with all the cooking supplies, seasonings, dishware and even the all important garbage bags, ziplocs and cleaning products! It was literally like house sitting for a good friend! We could not have been happier with the location, and were of course grateful that Naajee took the time to contact us upon our arrival to make sure that everything was up to our satisfaction. We will definitely refer friends and family to this rental, and next time we visit Memphis you can guarantee we will stay here again! Oh, and we highly recommend checking out Flight Restaurant...food and drinks were AMAZING as well! Thank you for helping us make our 10 year event such a spectacular occasion.
Owner response:We love it when guests enjoy themselves in Memphis. Our town depends on tourism. That is why we strive to do our part to make their stay as comfortable as possible. We want our guest to know that we have gone the extra mile to provide a clean environment. We sanitize door knobs and all bedding and furnishings. Mattress pads are kept clean and we wash our hands before removing dishes from the dish washer. It may seem like a trivial to sanitize the remotes and telephones but here is the secret, the owner reminds all of us to do unto others ...

If your staying in Memphis - you MUST stay here
Guest: Karen

Review Submitted: 07/12/10
Wow - it was such a fantastic home - everything was perfect - lots of room for everyone (we travelled with 2 adults and 2 teenagers) - the most beautiful area - the local store and restuarant were great - the walk along the Mighty Mississippi at sunset just has to be done. Very handy location close by the City really easy to get to everything. We had a car and parking wasn't a problem around town. Najee phoned twice to make sure everything was ok - just a really nice touch. Definately recommend - by far the best VRBO home I have ever stayed in. Thank you so much.
Owner response:Our guests from Australia were just the perfect guests. They came with the attitude that Memphis was going to be a great place to experience and indeed they did. Karen's family is our family now and we welcome them back anytime. They left the place so spotless until the house keeper initially thought that she had her dates confused. Best wishes on future jourrnies.

Great visit in Memphis at a Great Home on MudIsland

Review Submitted: 04/20/10
We had a great time and we were very pleasantly surprised not just by the home and decor but also by the neighborhood. The beautiful home gave the weekend that extra special touch. The home was better than the pictures. The 8 females in the house appreciated the wonderful supply of towels but it was nice to have the washer and dryer too. I will definitely recommend the townhouse to friends. I also appreciate the service provided to us by Naajee when we were planning the trip. Everything was made so easy for us. I also appreciated you checking in with us after we arrived to make sure everything was acceptable. If I plan another trip to Memphis I will defintely be in contact.
Owner response:We love it when guests enjoy their stay. That is why we try to go the extra mile in making the place feel comfortable. We have such great guests who treat the home with care. We want our guests to come back and to refer their friends. The honeymooners seem to enjoy the romantic master suite.

I have used VRBO many times, but this place was amazing. I could not believe how spotless, comfortable, quaint and homey it was. It will be the only place we rent for our annual convention. The location to the convention center was 5 minutes away. It would be a great place for a romantic getaway too. Brian Lindorf New Carlisle, In.

Other reviews were right when they said the pictures don't do it justice. This is a very elegant property, well decorated and in the loveliest neighborhood in Memphis. However any renter should know this is not a true three bedroom home. The third "bedroom" is actually a futon in the den right off the kitchen, so no light sleepers, as each trip to the kitchen or anyone wanting to watch a midnight movie will keep you up. Otherwise, its beautiful! Take a walk or have a cocktail party! It's ideal for entertaining and the location is premium! Downtown in seconds!
Owner response:The den was actually a bedroom turned into a den and has always been listed as a den/bedroom on all our web sites. It has a full bathroom attached as do the other two bedrooms. The Japanese futon, I am told, is actually quite comfey. The person(s) who gets this room also has quick access to the entire first floor (kitchen, living and dining rooms and den/BR) like a suite. So it all depends on how you see it and what the combination of guests is. Hope this helps those who are considering staying at this home. We go the extra mile. Naajee, Rental Agent
