About this property

Cottage on riverbank one mile from Clarksdale in gated community

Only 1 mile from Historic downtown Clarksdale, home of the blues, the cottage sits on the banks of the Sunflower River with beautiful views of rustic woods in a gated community . Out your window you might see deer, fox & other wildlife. Take a walk along the riverbank. You’ll love my place because of the comfy beds, great views, privacy, & closeness to all the cool music venues + 2 Fire pits , outside grill & full kitchen. Great for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers & kids. Check out our sister properties right next door, The Sunflower Penthouse on the River or the Sunflower Suite should the cottage be booked or if you need more room. Also there is the Sunset Log cabin across the road
The space
The cottage is a old shotgun tenant house with pecky cypress walls. It has one comfy king size bed and a plug in eazi- bed air mattress or the sofa.

Peaceful & great location

Libby is a perfect host. The place is beautiful and just a mile from Clarksdale and its treasures - great music, the friendliest folks on the planet and the finest keepers of America’s blues history. A trip to Clarksdale is a spiritual balm for the soul.

Check in was very easy. The place was very gross. It smells like mold and mildew. Everything was wet feeling. The towels and blankets were all damp. There was so much moisture in the unit. The floors were so uneven I’m shocked no one has fallen and hurt themself. The sheets were rough and very well used. The king bed sinks in the middle. The twin beds had hair in the sheets. The bamboo ceilings are falling on the beds. This is the absolute grossest place I have ever stayed.

Small but nice!

Very nice! In a nice area that seems to mostly be one family. Felt very safe and didn’t haven’t to worry about making sure everything was locked up. If it’s available on the next trip I’ll try and book again

Little Piece of Heaven

My daughter & I absolutely loved the decor & cozy feel of the Sunflower Cottage! She had it stocked with gourmet coffees, spices, cream, sugar! It’s on the river and very close to downtown too! The front porch takes you back in time! Libby provided lots of info. Music venues, restaurants, shopping etc. She responded quickly if needed. I’ll definitely be back!!

Helpful Owner, Issues with Location

We were unable to get into the property we had rented as the electronic door lock had dead batteries. After contacting the owner, she moved us into the location next door. When we got to the new location, the key lockbox was left hanging open, the door looked as though the deadbolt had been broken through the door frame at some point, the toilet seat was broken and there was blood (as if from someone else being on their period while being there and not cleaning it up) on the toilet and bathroom which I cleaned up myself so that we could use it. The dishware was dirty and there was a bowl of sugar with a spoon in it on the counter, used and unclean. Some of the towels in the bathroom had a bad odor to them. We left the place cleaner than we found it, but I refuse to clean up the mess we did not create. And I refuse to take a 4 star review from Libby after doing more than what I should have had to do in order to stat at this location.
