About this property

Gated Midtown Cottage with Perfect Location!

Jefferson Cottages are your home away from home. A small little gated community nestled among the trees steps away from Midtown`s most happening area (Overton Square). You have your own entry, parking, patio, laundry and all the essentials you`ll need to explore the best of Memphis. We`ll send you a digital guidebook with our favorite recommendations :)

Your space has a great layout with the kitchen and bathroom centered in the middle, bedroom and living room at opposite sides of the apartment.

The location and layout of the apartment make it perfect for the solo traveler, those heading in to town for work, or a couple on a nice retreat to Memphis! Blazing fast internet, iron and ironing board, basic cooking spices and all the kitchenry to whip up a quick meal.

If you feel like heading out you will be walking distance from some super scrumptious restaurants!

I`ve tried to set it up so you have several different sitting areas; a couple in the living area with either a comfy sofa or a relaxing chair facing the smart TV. A small kitchen table with a couple bar stools is also a good place eat a meal you brought in from one of the many nearby restaurants or a meal you prepared yourself in the equipped kitchen with all the essentials (salt, pepper, olive oil)

This is just one apartment in a building of 12 in the gated community. You will find the laundry and dryer in the kitchen area with the soaps to go along with it.

Once you head in through the front gate you will see plenty of parking straight ahead - you`re welcome to park in any spot.

You will have full access in the apartment; there are no locked doors or cabinets.

You`ll receive a digital code a one day before your arrival for the front door which means that 24 hour check-in is no problem at all! Any questions and we can be reached 24 hours a day by sending us a quick message.

I will send you a text with a link to my guidebook I`m working on before your arrival but you will also have additional information inside the apartment with contacts, transportation and other general info

Walk out the front door and just down the block around the corner brings you to a bustling Overton Square with a bunch of restaurant options, bars, and live music venues at Lafayettes and, of course, a delicious BBQ joint just up the street.

Head downtown the other direction in a short uber ($8) and you`ll find yourself engulfed in Memphis` blues scene on the famous Beale street.

In addition to the many great eateries (which you`ll find in the guidebook i`ll send you) there are several parks nearby and places to relax.

Uber or Lyft are readily available and definitely the best option.

There is a trolley that runs down Madison and will bring you to downtown if you want a little more of a historic experience heading downtown.

Exactly what we needed

This was a great experience. Kitchen had everything and bath was fully stocked. Everything worked great. Couch and bed were really comfortable. The only issue was that the walls were pretty thin so we could hear the neighbor snoring, BUT the owner included earplugs with the stay. Lol. So we were set. Thanks for a great experience.

Two for two!

Our second stay was just as great as the first! The property is comfortable, and the staff is solid—super helpful with a quick response time. It’s conveniently located near everything, making it easy to get around. The place is quiet, perfect for working, and the gated entrance adds an extra layer of safety. Highly recommend!

MidTown stay

Good location. Cute little place. However, this bungalow did smell like mildew which was very offputting. The kitchen sink faucet needs to be fixed - it sprays water off to the side by about 2' when turned on. The bathroom does need a stopper in the sink. The exterior could be brushed off as it was covered with webs. Bug spray and air freshener helped the situation on the inside. Properly fitting coffee filters are needed. And for me, a work area with a comfortable desk chair would have been helpful - but I made to do with the metal chair/table set-up. Positives - the property lawns and parking area were very secure and clean behind the fence. Codes for entry at the gate and house door were easy to use.

Empty Nesting Vacation

April 15-22, 2022 Process, Price and Location was fantastic!! We really enjoyed our stay in Memphis and ALL the wonderful things to do! We enjoyed patronizing local restaurant’s instead of chain restaurants!! The vacation rental met our expectations with the exception of a couple of things, one being the house wasn’t as freshly cleaned, there was dust under the sofa and behind the hallway door, the blind on the back door was missing a piece and lastly the bed and sofa was extremely FIRM, maybe invest in some better furniture. Oh, and the yard was not kept! Needed some TLC. However, overall we were semi-satisfied and look forward to visiting other parts of Tennessee in the future! Jacquelyn and Anthony Brown

Cleanliness was not good

Check in process was very easy. But the refrigerator door was very dirty, and the towels were unclean and had hair on them. The floors were not swept and the bathtub did not look clean.

GREAT LOCATION

The location was great. Definitely felt safe with gated entry and exit. The place itself could use some upgrades and definitely recommend putting a television in the bedroom. It was not the cleanest but I’m a neat freak. I would definitely safe place air fresheners or some type of scent. Communication was great. Overall I’d rate everything about 3.8 out of 5. I’d would recommend for the price and the location.

Memphis Weekend

Overall we had a comfortable stay in our apartment. The inside was not clean and sanitized as stated online. The bed was very comfortable, however, we did question whether the sheets had been changed or not, but ONLY because we had to sweep all the floors and get the hair up out of the bathroom. The kitchen was okay but the front of the dishwasher had "stuff?" on it. Left that there. But like I said, the rest of the weekend was very good and we were very comfortable. The management team was really awesome and easy to contact, great response time. I would definitely stay with this company again.
