Walk to your Own Gated Retreat from Midtown`s Best

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 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.



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.



**The property is a bit older so sound can travel through the walls easier - please be mindful of your noise level after 10 pm as to not disturb the neighbors, thanks in advance!**

Diamond in the Rough

What a wonderful stay we had. We felt safe in the gated community. The small, quaint apartment had all we needed for an enjoyable stay. Communication with property owner was quick! It was nice to be greeted via text and sent info about the area. We loved eating in Overton Square. What a fun atmosphere and great eating establishments! We’ll be back!!

Cute, clean, convenient

Our unit was very clean and perfect for a weekend getaway. We preferred the privacy that you don’t get at a hotel. The short walk to Overton Square was perfect for an evening stroll. Communication with the hosts was amazing! Everyone was very responsive and helpful. Thank you very much!

Great Stay with Easy Drive to Everywhere

We chose this cottage as our crash pad the weekend of the St. Jude Marathon. It was an easy drive into the heart of downtown to get to the start line, and simple to get to a number of the race checkpoints for cheering on runners. The space was perfect for our needs - the kitchenette allowed us to prepare breakfast, the laundry machines saved us from stinky racewear, and the separate bedroom and living room gave us space to enjoy quiet recuperation time. The only caveat I have is to echo other guests' sentiments: the compound is older construction and you will hear everything from the adjoining space, should you have - ahem - amorous neighbors at 3 am (as was our experience). Bring earplugs or noise-canceling headphones, and you'll be just fine. Enjoy an economical stay with some nice amenities and an easy commute to some great Memphis neighborhoods.

Nice place for a short stay

We rented the place for a weekend getaway. The location was good. Close to some neat local places and not far from any of the touristy spots. The unit was clean, well equipped and had everything you would need., including nice towels. Weird but worth mentioning. I have had some places with tags provided as towels. The decor was trendy and comfortable with care given to little accent pieces to give character. The bathroom needs a little tlc. There is a patched hole that needs to be be painted. Part of the toilet paper holder was missing so the paper will fall off into the floor or trash when reaching for it. The towel hooks fall out of the wall if they are used. Other than the bathroom issues, the place was nice, clean and comfortable. I recommend it and would stay there again.

The location of this property was perfect.

Everything you need is within walking distance or short car ride. The property is gated and felt very safe. The only negative is that it wasn't very clean and not very well stocked with garbage bags or toilet paper. We had 1 bag and 1 full roll of tp. The apartment had built up dust and grime and hairs in the bathroom. Ants appeared around the kitchen sink. But it was cheap and conveniently located. I brought cleaning supplies and cleaned a bit. Also the A would not stay on the setting. We set the heat to 73 overnight and woke up to 60. Overall a rating of 3 is appropriate.

Contact-free convenient quiet

It was everything I needed to get through a lovely, but stressful, family funeral. An easy walk to Overton Square, but just far enough away from the bustle to relax.
