The location was ideal, with restaurants and shops within walking distance and just a short drive to everything else Memphis has to offer. Communication with Stewart was excellent.

The best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in

We were honestly blown away by how amazing this place was…the pictures simply can’t/don’t do it justice. The location was PERFECT for walking to shops and restaurants and morning coffee…It’s right across the street from a precious park/playground (but it wasn’t ever crowded)…the house itself WAY exceeded our expectations - SUPER CLEAN, amazing spaces, the nicest kitchen I’ve ever seen in a rental property…less than 10 minutes to Overton Square and 12 min to Rhodes College…The owners were super responsive when my daughter left something behind too! I would absolutely stay here again - and plan to!
