About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Gated Cottage walking distance to Overton Square!

Jefferson Cottages are your home away from home. A small little gated community nestled among the trees steps away from Midtown's most happening area (Overton Square). You have your own entry, parking, patio, laundry and all the essentials you'll need to explore the best of Memphis. We'll send you a digital guidebook with our favorite recommendations :)

Your space has a great layout with the kitchen and bathroom centered in the middle, bedroom and living room at opposite sides of the apartment.

The location and layout of the apartment make it perfect for the solo traveler, those heading in to town for work, or a couple on nice retreat to Memphis! Blazing fast internet, iron and ironing board, basic cooking spices and all the kitchenry to whip up a quick meal.

If you feel like heading out you will be walking distance from some super scrumptious restaurants!

I've tried to set it up so you have several different sitting areas; a couple in the living area with either a comfy sofa or a relaxing chair facing the smart TV. A small kitchen table with a couple bar stools is also a good place eat a meal you brought in from one of the many nearby restaurants or a meal you prepared yourself in the equipped kitchen with all the essentials (salt, pepper, olive oil)

This is just one apartment in a building of 12 in the gated community. You will find the laundry and dryer in the kitchen area with the soaps to go along with it.

Once you head in through the front gate you will see plenty of parking straight ahead - you're welcome to park in any spot.

You will have full access in the apartment.

You'll receive a digital code a one day before your arrival for the front door which means that 24 hour check-in is no problem at all! Any questions and we can be reached 24 hours a day by sending us a quick message.

I will send you a text with a link to my guidebook I'm working on before your arrival but you will also have additional information inside the apartment with contacts, transportation and other general info

Walk out the front door and just down the block around the corner brings you to a bustling Overton Square with a bunch of restaurant options, bars, and live music venues at Lafayettes and, of course, a delicious BBQ joint just up the street.

Head downtown the other direction in a short uber ($8) and you'll find yourself engulfed in Memphis' blues scene on the famous Beale street.

In addition to the many great eateries (which you'll find in the guidebook i'll send you) there are several parks nearby and places to relax.

Uber or Lyft are readily available and definitely the best option.

There is a trolley that runs down Madison and will bring you to downtown if you want a little more of a historic experience heading downtown.

Decided not to stay at this condo
Got to the condo and it was very musty inside. I knew it would bother my allergies. The carpet in the living room was dirty. There was a cobweb on one of the dining chairs. The old grate for the air flow had an air filter but it was not placed correctly, and it was dirty. I replied to the email from the host about the issues but didn't hear back. I didn't realize that it was from a no reply email address. Then I later contacted the host through VRBO. He was not willing to give us any type of refund. We ended up going to a downtown hotel.

Great place with everything we needed.
We had a great stay in Memphis. This place had everything we needed and was in a perfect location. Everything was clean and neat and came with some essentials like coffee, laundry pods, dish soap etc. Bed was comfy and it was nice to have the washer dryer handy. The parking was right outside the back door and the area is all fenced in and secure with a gate. Had a great stay. Will stay here again if we return.

Nice little cottage
I had the pleasure of staying at this cottage while visiting Memphis for three days. The location was close to Overton Square and a few miles away from Beale St. There were restaurant in walking distance of Overton Square. The check-in an check out process was very easy. Tim the host was great and check in often weather it was my travel in or just to see how things were going. Everything met my expectations and I would definitely stay here again when visiting Memphis Jeffery

Great security! Excellent bed! Great shower!
I never like to give any negative comments, but there are 2 issues that need attention: there was a strong mildew smell, and the cleanliness of the kitchen needs attention. You’re not getting your money’s worth from the clean up crew! All silverware had to be re-washed as well as the dishes. And the refrigerator leaks water onto all the food. We appreciated the washer/dryer and iron /ironing board.

Just what i was looking for
It was small, which is what i was looking for. There was only 2 of us. Didn't spend much time there other than sleeping so it was perfect. Close to downtown, one could walk if they chose to. Would definitely stay there again.

A great bargain close to Overton Square
This is a nice little cottage just right for one, or two if they are friendly. The neighborhood seems safe, plus the property is behind a security fence. Kitchen is adequate, and the place is clean. There is a small, well-shaded front porch that looks out on a quiet street where lots of people walk dogs, bike, and jog. It is definitely not fancy like many Vrbos I have stayed in, but it is less expensive than a hotel, very livable, and in a super location. A big plus is proximity to Overton Square, a hopping strip with lots of great restaurants, live music, and more all just about a ten minute walk away. I have a couple of more short trips to Memphis in the near future, and will gladly stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Quiet, safe and secure parking, and all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. 3-4 block walk to a dozen restaurants and bars. Nice neighborhood. Bed was comfy. We actually extended our stay as we were enjoying Midtown and this apartment. We would definitely stay here again.

Fell in love!!!
The entire process for my stay from start to finish was fluid, communicative, and simplistic. I had direct conversations from the owner and he provided helpful insight and was just awesome. The layout of the rental was ideal and styled for simplicity yet directly accommodating. The location was perfection! I didn’t want to leave. I extended my stay as a matter of fact by another several days because I was still needed in the area and instead of looking for another place I reached out and was able to stay longer. Come time to leave I was so very sad to say goodbye to my what felt like a home away from home but I know given the chance and availability I MOST DEFINITELY WILL BE BACK!!! This place is a 20 out of 10 hands down! Tim the owner is phenomenal and has such a remarkable and lovely home that if you have the chance to stay here I highly recommend that you do!!! Can’t wait to stay again!! Tim I will be back if you will have have me!!

Not Exactly What We Expected
This review has no bearing on the owner or his apartment. It's more about the neighborhood. This was our last stop on a 23 day trip and we stayed here for two nights. The pictures of this apartment are accurate. It is obvious that the owner has repainted and put new furniture in this place. It is well stocked but would be a bit crowded for more than two people - as it is described on VRBO. When you drive into the neighborhood it looks a bit suspicious. It is an older neighborhood and many of the houses are run down. The exterior of this apartment needs to be painted and the front porch of it, and every other property, was dirty. But don't let that fool you - the gates keep people that don't belong there out, and when you step into the apartment it is a different world. We wouldn't consider walking anywhere outside of the gates. My only complaint would be that the floors were dirty. We had to wear flip flops to keep the bottoms of our feet from turning black. I'm sure that Tim will address that with his cleaning company.
