Our updated and remodeled home was the original farmhouse built in 1938 and the neighborhood was the farm. Over time the farmer sold off parts of his land and the neighborhood built up around it. Several of the homes in the neighborhood are on large pieces of land (2 acres to the left of us and two acres across the street from us) and many other of the houses are just normal neighborhood homes. You get a nice mix of country and suburbs in our neighborhood. We are right down the street from Shelby Farms which is a huge park with paddle boats, zip lining, bike rental and bike trails and lots more.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This was one of the best houses we have stayed in. The hospitality was amazing and we will definitely book again as our son want to come see memphis now since he disnt go with is this time
Host was extremely cooperative when the storm caused a power outage. I had access to a generator for the fridge and to charge my phone. He promptly gave me a refund for the remainder of my stay so I could get a hotel room.
Kitchen was well stocked and owners were extremely friendly. We had no problems during our stay and I know if we had, they would have been very prompt.
We had a wonderful stay and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The property was spotless, well-maintained, and had everything we needed to feel comfortable. The location was perfect—close to everything we wanted to do while still being peaceful and relaxing.The highlight of our stay was our host, Mr. Christmas. He is truly one of the kindest and most welcoming hosts we've ever met. He went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived.If you're looking for a clean, comfortable place in an excellent location with an exceptional host, this is it. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
