Midtown Charm walkable to Overton Square

Jennifer Rating, 5 stars14 months ago
Great stay at a great location! Historical charm and kitchen is very nice and updated. Corey was very responsive and helpful too. I would just say that if allergies are an issue for you, pack the Claritin. Although the house was very clean, I had some trouble with couch upholstery. Bedding was very nice and we slept very well! Having hairdryers, coffee, soaps and lotions at our disposal was a very nice touch and made our stay even nicer.

Cozy Apartment #4 in Hip, Walkable Cooper Young

JohnRating, 5 stars11 months ago
When I first stumbled upon this place on AirBnB, it seemed almost too good to be true. There must be a catch! But everything was as perfect as it was shown. John is a gracious host. He provided us with all the information we needed and showed us around. The place is just very nice. Kitchen is compact and contains everything one needs. The bed is comfortable, bathroom and terrace are excellent. Location is pretty good in relation to Memphis. John H had excellent restaurant recommendations and was of great help. He went way beyond to make our weekend comfortable and memorable. We'll def be returning and look forward to booking again with a great host.

SuperClean Retro Cutie Guesthouse

PattyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A very cozy and comfortable experience! The interior space is bright and sunny but also has plenty of lamps for evening hours. I was impressed by how quiet the cottage is even though it's in an alley (which is not of the scary variety. In fact, the neighborhood is quite upscale.) The FedEx flight path is nearby but didn't disturb us. This would be an excellent place for a longer-term stay for one or two people. St. Jude is less than 10 minutes away.

TonyaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a wonderful stay at Don's place, and couldn't ask for a nicer host! We were in town for a basketball game at FedEx and the house was convenient to downtown and everything we needed. It's the best decorated Airbnb I've stayed in, with antiques and art, and the beds are comfortable too. They are very animal friendly. Check in and checkout was super easy, and Don is a really nice guy to talk to.

Hollywood House-Fenced Yard-Deck-Grill-Fire Pit!

DebraRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
I traveled alone to Memphis with my two dogs, so I wanted to make sure I was in a decent neighborhood. Theresa and Russ assured me that this was safe, and I also confirmed the neighborhood with someone in the trip advisor forum. I’m so glad I stayed here! First of all, the place is just cute as it can be and so tastefully decorated. Everything was carefully arranged, well thought out and clean. And the back yard was so wonderful for both the dogs and I. They loved chasing the squirrels and birds and I loved the Edison bulb patio lights and patio. The yard was large and fenced in. The hiuse was just a few blocks from Overton park/the zoo/college of art/Memphis museum of art, also Overton Square and Coopers Young area for dining. It was also only about five miles to downtown. Finally, Theresa and Russ were so kind and left hostess gifts for my dogs and I. The dog scarves are a keepsake. They gave recommendations on where we could dine together and were patient in answering my questi

Your guide to Memphis

All About Memphis

Located along the banks of the Mississippi River, Memphis is America’s musical mecca, where enduring ties to blues, soul, and rock ‘n’ roll linger at every turn. Music lovers from all over the world make the pilgrimage to the holy altars of Graceland and Sun Studios, birthplace of rock ‘n’ roll. And when it comes to honoring its past, the Tennessee city packs in some great music museums, including Stax Museum of American Soul Music, Memphis Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum, and the Blues Hall of Fame. For an immersive way to learn about the American Civil Rights Movement and its legacy, the former Lorraine Motel, forever etched in the collective consciousness, is now home to the National Civil Rights Museum, featuring displays and exhibitions that span five centuries.

The pulse of the city, Beale Street, hums with activity and entertainment. Live music spills out of the restaurants, bars, and nightclubs and onto the neon-lit roadway. The city is known for its Memphis-style barbeque and is brimming with local eateries and restaurants serving succulent, distinctively smokey, pit-cooked delights. For some downtime, take the short drive to Shelby Farms Park, a lush oasis spanning 4,500 acres of scenic greenery and open space with more than 20 lakes, where you can fish, kayak, paddleboard, and chill out. The park also offers 40 miles of trails for walking, hiking, and cycling.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Memphis

Memphis experiences four distinct seasons. Summers tend to be long and hot, while winters are typically short, cold, and rainy with little snow. The fall and spring months boast pleasant, cool temperatures, a great time for booking your Memphis vacation rental. The city has a packed annual calendar as well. September hosts 30 Days of Opera, a month-long event featuring free opera performances at festivals, parks, and opera houses. In October, the River Arts Fest features hundreds of artworks from regional and national artists displayed along the Mississippi River.

Come spring, some of the area’s most beloved events — a barbeque cooking contest, riverside race, and music festival — span the entire month of May. Summer welcomes many famous musicians to Memphis for live concerts and music fests.
