The Magnolia House is considered by many to be the #1 luxury vacation rental in West Tennessee. This lovely, completely remodeled home is located in a quite, historic neighborhood overlooking the peaceful Overton Park. The setting is perfect for weekend get-aways, family reunions, vacations or just to relax and enjoy the wonderful amenities surrounding you, all within walking distance....people travel from all around to enjoy over 50 free concerts a year at the outdoor amphitheater, the Levitt Shell (where Elvis first played!), also the Memphis Zoo (ranked one of the top zoos in the United States) can be viewed from this home, the wonderful Brooks Art Museum (the largest art museum in Tennessee) is also within walking distance. The Park also offers a 9-Hole City Golf Course, entrance to the Shelby Farms Greenline for biking or walking(which is a 6.5 mile biking path and connects midtown to Shelby Farms Park), fantastic new playground and also a pond for watching ducks and fish. Do not forget your picnic basket, frisbee and a kite for a leisurely day outside!

The home is very secure with automatic gated entrance. Very safe neighborhood for walking and strolling to the Zoo, the Levitt Shell Amphitheater or the Brooks Art Museum. High speed internet is offered as well.

The newly renovated Overton Square is a few blocks away with some of the best restaurants in the City! German, Japanese, Mexican, Cajun, Italian food can all be found in this great area! We would love to recommend some of our favorites! Also, a great place to find nightlife...many bars with restaurants open late and even Lafayette's Music Room and The Zebra Lounge with a piano bar! If you are into theater, Playhouse on The Square, The new Hattiloo Theater and The Circuit Playhouse are located in this area. Also, in close proximity is the Cooper Young area, where there is another wide range of great restaurants. If you are a foodie or love visiting breweries, you will LOVE this area as well!

The Home is also very close to downtown where you will find the world famous Beale Street with much nightlife, Sun Studios, the well-known Peabody Hotel with their famous daily, duck parade, the Gibson Guitar Museum, the Fed-Ex Forum where many great concerts are held and the Memphis Grizzlies play, the Redbirds Baseball Stadium, and also the not to be missed newly opened Bass Pro Shop (largest Bass Pro in the United States and located in The Pyramid overlooking the great Mississippi River). One can not leave the City without sampling our world-famous barbecue. The Rendezvous and Central Barbecue are both very close!
The list goes on and on....so much to see and do in The City! This home, however, was remodeled and designed by an interior designer and is a wonderful place just to sit back, relax and enjoy its upscale amenities!
We love our city and hope that you will come and embrace all that it has to offer!

    We loved staying in this beautiful home! The location is perfect. We walked every morning in the neighbor and in Overton Park, which is next door. The house was spotless and well maintained. My in-laws (both in their 80's) stayed with us and enjoyed their time visiting Memphis. We will definitely rent this property again! I'm pretty sure my mother-n-law would buy if it is ever for sale (:

    Home exterior and interior is exactly as displayed and therefore no disappointments---just lovely, warm, super clean, and large well appointed yard for social and play. The owners main concern is delivering an exemplary stay for all guests and all the time--done. Thanks Elizabeth and Mike for the opportunity to use your space. We will be Back!!!

    Simply stunning property in fantastic location! The inside and outdoor spaces of this home are gorgeous. The street is beautiful and located near many restaurants and attractions. Walking distance to Rhodes College, the zoo, and park. The host was accessible to answer questions and she left a cake for us on the buffet in the dining room! Such a lovely surprise!!

    Pros: the house is located in a beautiful, safe, very quiet area right next to the zoo and the art museum. The neighborhood is beautiful, and safe. Very convenient for attractions, restaurants and more. The interior is cozy. If that's all you care, you can stop reading now. We enjoyed our stay overall.Cons: 1. In the year 2025, the wifi speed at this house is 20 years behind (hard to believe) at 3-4 mbps, extremely slow. You are better off using your cellphone hotspots.2. 1950s house- the host should provide better lighting in the kitchen, we brought lamps from bedrooms. 3. The friendly host should provide shower caddies (keeping shampoos on the floor!), hooks to hang clothes in the bedrooms, and electric outlet next to bed in the King bedroom.3. The driveway is too steep when you get into the main road. Every time we drove out or drove in, the bumper under the van grated (very annoying) against the driveway. Hope the host would fix these issues for future guests.

    This home is beautiful, clean, and immaculately kept. The host is kind and has excellent communication and prompt response time with guests. I stayed with two young babies and they even had a Pack and Play in one of the closets for us to use. I will stay here again and recommend it to friends and family - the highest endorsement.

    What a beautiful house! I’ve done quite a bit of traveling and this one stands out for sure! The detail in each room was so impressive. My girlfriend/partner was just beside herself. Great hosts and great neighborhood right across from the zoo which is second to none! I was just impressed with the entire experience! Thank you for the memories!!

    The property was beautiful and the neighborhood was full of walkers and runners being so close to the park and zoo. Our host and hostess had the property well prepared along with a baked cake. We do have a few suggestions to suit parties of all adults. The bathroom in the laundry room could use hooks on the walls for towels and maybe a small table for personal items. We thought two of the rooms had twin beds in them, not roll aways. We enjoyed our stay and found everything we needed as being there. Oh, perhaps cone shaped coffee filters being provided. 😉
