Summary:
A uniquely renovated historic church in Cooper Young with all the style, history, and comfort to compliment your Memphis stay!!

Built in 1920 as Cedar Grove Baptist Church and operated under many names through the years. It has been vacant since 1986. The church has since been saved by Griffin Elkington who turned it in to this 4 bed/2 bath Airbnb all while saving the integrity of the outside stone facade.

Managed by Superhosts 10 years straight!!!

    This is a beautiful property in a little secluded area right off Cooper street, within walking distance of some of the best parts of the Midtown Memphis. It's a delightful space and delightfully quiet, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay with a large group or family in the middle of Memphis!

    The property was as expected, and communication with the owner was fast and helpful to resolve issues, such as we had when the code to the property was not working. Great location that is walking distance to liberty Stadium and the central commercial strip of Cooper Young. Highly recommend the property and the neighborhood to get a taste of real Memphis.

    This property is beautiful. the artwork on the walls gives it a warmness. there is a divine chandelier in the foyer that is very colorful and adds to the fireplace. the property is very clean, beds are absolutely comfortable. I need to add that the water pressure in bathrooms is awesome. I have been in VRBO's where the water pressure is horrible. Here is it nice and hot. The only downside was that the Livingroom tv would not stay connected to the WIFI. I had to use the Hotspot on my phone in order for us to watch movies. I would most stay here again. oh lets not forget the Pacman game machine. FREE FREE FREE! We had an awesome time playing it. Brought back memories for us old heads LOL

    The house was amazing, very clean and new, excellent hosting made everything easy. I was concerned about security/safety just based on Memphis reputation lately, but I was very pleasantly surprised, I felt comfortable the entire stay. There are tons of cool places to eat close enough to walk to. Will definitely stay again given the opportunity!
