Eclipse Friends' Trip

Great home! Plenty of room for everyone! We mostly stayed at the home on the balcony. We only ventured out and traveled to Jonesboro to view the eclipse. The balcony was the best place to relax. If we are ever in the area, we plan to stay at The Cedars again!

Awesome Family Reunion

We were visiting family in Marion and West Memphis, but wanted our own space. The Cedars was like a palace! For about the price of four hotel rooms, we had massive amounts of space and privacy. It beat sleeping on a blow up mattress at Mom’s house!

A magical place

If you're thinking about it, just do it; it will exceed your expectations. The house is lovely, will appointed and has everything you need for a successful get together. The house itself made our trip magical. The location is 10 min to Beale Street, 10 min to the casino. An Uber ride is around $20 at night and $15 during the day.

Fantastic property

Plenty of space, out of the way from busy roads. Train crossing was close and passed by a few times during the night, but was very tolerable. Only gripe we really had were the knives available for preparing food were blunted, dull, and had many knicks in them. Everything else was perfect!

WONDERFUL STAY

We stayed for five days and it was wonderful. We were 7 adults and two kids under10 and it was a perfect home during our time there. The home is exactly as pictured and described. There was PLENTY of space for all of us. It was very convenient to travel to and from Memphis for our daughters graduation from college, just 15 - 20 minutes away. There was also a great path to walk on near the river that sits behind the home. It's just a lovely place to stay if you are in the area! The host, Jane, was wonderful too! We were fortunate enough to meet her. You will enjoy your stay!

The Cedars Mansion was the perfect getaway…

The Cedars Mansion was an outstanding getaway for us from July 21-25, 2022..This home is very spacious and beautifully decorated with a personal touch. The Cedars Mansion is great, because the location was amazing for our group which we tour the Martin Luther King’s museum and Beale Street..After having a busy day enjoying the festivities during the day we was able to retreat back to this beautiful home for peace, serenity, and the sweet calm sound from the fountain out front..The landscape of the gardens and yard was emulate and so beautiful..Thank you Mrs. Jane for being such a wonderful person and host to us and I recommend this home to anyone wanting to tour Memphis…🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾

Better than hotel close to Memphis!

We enjoyed our stay at The Cedars while in Memphis for a graduation. The drive was short and no traffic once over the bridge. The house is spacious, nicely decorated and the kitchen is well stocked. We appreciated the comfortable beds and pillows and quiet setting. The owner, Jane, was wonderful to work with and was flexible with date changes and number of guests. She purchased a Keurig after I asked if the house had one and decorated with orange and white balloons for the grad. Thank you for the personal touches and understanding as travel plans and needs changed after booking. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying at The Cedars when we are back in Memphis.

This is a beautiful amazing home. Spotless, many immenities. Much more than the pictures show. We traveled from Virginia via Harley Davidson's 1,028 one way. Worth every mile. The gardener showed up each morning on the grounds as we sat on the upper deck and was so friendly and gave us the history of the home and the area. Jane, the owner stayed in contact with me from the day of booking to departure to answer any questions we had. You will not go wrong by staying here. Loved every minute.

The house is big enough for all of us kitchen very large and accommodating. We had a few issues but communicated with the host and they were fixed right away. We enjoyed having the little Italian taken bait, which is on the bottom floor. The food was very good and made it easy to prepare a big dinner. We would stay again.

This was our travel group's first trip to Memphis and we opted for this beautiful former B&b. The owners were easy to communicate with and assist us. On our first day there our second floor air conditioning stopped. The same day they brought over an air conditioning unit that kept the whole floor very comfortable. The house is very spacious with a large downstairs kitchen, living room, dinning area as well as three large bedrooms with two bathrooms. The upstairs has a large living room and bedroom. It also has a small kitchen with cooking and refrigerator appliances. The town of Marion is very small but has several gas stations , a nice size grocery store and several small restaurants. The outside of the complex is secluded and fairly quiet. There is a train that passes some distance from the house and it did not bother us. A bonus is a small cafe / bakery about 100 yards from the house entrance. Next to the cafe is the Sultania museum which informs you about a naval disaster the occurred at the end of the civil war. Very interesting. The best part of the house is it is an easy 15-20 minute drive into the best part of Memphis. We loved the civil rights museum which is located on the hotel site where Martin Luther King was assassinated. . It brought back memories of our youth and highlighted the struggles to gain equal rights . We took the Mojo bus tour which included a singing tour guide who gave us a great deal of information about the characters who made Memphis famous .

Great Vibes!

This was the most relaxing time! The host was so easy to communicate with. The home was incredibly clean! Each room was themed with lovey accoutrements of shampoo, conditioner, soaps and towels for make up removal. The grounds were beautiful with lots of trees and beautiful landscaping. The kitchen was amazing with all the prep areas and sinks. It truly felt as if you were visiting a royal home. Thank you Jane for your hospitality and gracious hosting!

We enjoyed our stay at The Cedars mansion. The home was very clean and spacious to accommodate our party of 10 family members.

Birthday getaway

This house was amazing! When you first open the front door you see the beautiful staircase. The bedrooms were nicely done. The living room area was a place everyone could hang out and be comfortable. The kitchen was spacious and had everything you needed. Upstairs was a beautiful suite. The house is only 15 minutes to Memphis. Great for day trips. Jane was great. Answered any questions and replied quickly. Would definitely stay here again and refer it to friends.

We spent two nights at The Cedars for a small family gathering. The home was clean and spacious, allowing plenty of space to spread out. We especially enjoyed the decks. The Cedars is in a small town but very convenient to downtown Memphis. Jane was a gracious host, easy to work with and very prompt with communication. If we return to the Memphis area we would definitely stay there again.
