This place will absolutely not disappoint! If you’re looking for the convenience and access to the big city, but in a quiet, safe, and adorable spot, this is it! Host are so friendly and accomodating, the farm is beautiful, and lots of little extras like the barn and gardens. Can’t say enough great things about this property!
What a unique property! Peaceful, farm setting with southern hospitality in an absolutely charming shipping container home. Check out the roof-top deck and views. And, yes, it really is that close to Memphis.
We were in town for Beale Street Music Fest and this was a perfect location
We were in town for Beale Street Music Fest and this was a perfect location, we were less than 10 minutes from Beale Street. Emily was super accommodating and quick to communicate. The property was so cute, just wish we would’ve had more time to just enjoy it all! This will be my go to anytime we travel to Memphis area!
Wonderful experience at this property. Less than a ten minute drive to Memphis. Full use of entire property including a barn with a fire pit, tv, ping pong and more. Also allowed the kids to visit with the horses.
Emily is a super host. Great communicator and helpful when needed. The container home is just as described and much more. The home is very clean and charming. The beds are comfortable and the location is perfect. Only 7-10 minutes from downtown Memphis. The roof sitting area is ideal. You have access to the barn for your entertainment along with those staying onsite. I can’t say enough about our short stay but will return in the future for an extended stay. Thank you Emily.
You won't believe you are a short trip to downtown Memphis when you pull into this adorable farm! Everything you need is provided and the hosts are accommodating and amazing with communication. You truly feel like a guest when they offer for you to pick their blackberries and love on their horses. We were traveling with our daughter and her new husband to help them get ready for professional school in Memphis. The two sides with separate bathrooms, beds, TVs, and fridges were perfect for us. We had space to watch movies and play cards together, but then also had privacy. Perfect for our weekend stay!
We were looking for a good place where we could carry our motorcycle trailer. The farm house was perfect! Our friend meet us there. He stay in one side my wife and I stayed in the other. The owner meet us there, Emily was a fantastic host. It was exactly what we were looking for. Nice farm with a great view. Family friendly. 30 minutes from town. We loved it.
Chris & Page.
We loved staying at this property and if we ever have need to visit Memphis again, will stay here. Loved the accommodation and the location. So close to Memphis and super easy access - yet away from the congestion - very peaceful!
The rooftop deck was great. The owner and managers very friendly and helpful. The best part was the dog friendly farm. Our dog loved being off leash and playing with other dogs. We will return.
Wonderful location and a farmhouse feel. We had a work trip that took us near by. The property is large and the owners said it was ok for us to walk around. We fed the horses a couple times which was fun.
This is an incredible place to stay! We came for a University of Memphis football game and it couldn’t be easier to get into Memphis! So close and yet we couldn’t wait to get back to sit on the roof deck with a glass of wine and watch the sunset and see the stars come out! The house was great, the beds were comfy and the kitchen was stocked nicely! We will be back!
We were in town for a football game - and found this great place! Beds were comfortable, plenty of room and the roof deck is awesome! We only made coffee, so didn’t use kitchen utensils but there seemed to stocked. If you are headed to Memphis and want a quiet , quaint place- this is the answer for sure!!
We had a wonderful experience. The property is beautiful and the house was very homey. The owners went out of their way to accommodate our every need. We highly recommend this rental. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
I can’t say enough about this wonderful property and the hosts. The adorable container-box cottage was much more spacious than it appears in the pics and was stocked with absolutely everything we needed, plus some. We arrived the day they shut down the i-40 bridge and Charlie was super helpful in ensuring we found our way to the farm. We really enjoyed meeting the hosts’ dogs and horses, as well as Emily and Charlie and other guests. I really can’t recommend this property more. I would love to go back for a longer visit!
PS: Even with the bridge closure, we were able to get in and out of Memphis reasonably quickly.
The container house is the newest of the 4 or so rental cabins on the farm clustered together but spaced apart, so you are alone in the middle of the farm, which was good. My teenage son and I and our dog were traveling thru Memphis and this was a great stop. Peaceful, easy, nice owners, pretty land, and good roof top deck.
This is a great place to stay. My husband & I drove here from NJ with our dog. We met several people associated with the rental & they were all friendly & helpful. The place was clean & well kept. We would definitely stay again. We loved the peace & quiet.
