Excellent location to a variety of tourist attractions that are within walking distance. Everything you would need is within walking area of The Cottage. Knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating hosts. Would stay here again if we ever make it back to Memphis. We only wished we could have stayed longer because we enjoyed it so much there.

Weekend in Memphis

We came to Memphis for a family event. The Cottage was close to the event and close to everything we needed. We did not rent a car and most of what we did was within walking distance. The place is cute, comfy, and in a great location. The address does not match the entrance from the street on the back side of the property. Basically it is across from the Civil Rights museum parking lot. If you are staying in downtown Memphis, This is a great place to stay.

What a great spot!!

This apartment had everything we could need. Walking distance to everywhere, including a very nice grocery store. Rhonda was super friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We made the most of our time in Memphis despite sharing it with Tropical Cyclone Francine. Hoping to return here some day!
