Very clean and comfortable. The house was one I could see Ben & Erin Napier renovating for HGTV--it's a Craftsman cottage with great bones

They are working hard to restore this cute little cottage. Furniture and beds were comfy and it was a great home base for exploring Clarksdale. My husband enjoyed reading all of the performance posters!

In the Heart of Clarksdale
This little old house is perfect for a visit to Clarksdale. It's a little run-down (like Claksdale) but very nice inside. More than adequate. Across the street from a riverside park and just a few blocks from downtown. We were in town for a few days for a wedding and it was great to be able to walk to everything. Highly recommended.
