Charlie’s farmhouse has 2 bed rooms, 1 bath and a fantastic wrap around porch. It sits among 5 other farmhouses on historic Mound City Planting Company. This peaceful setting is the closest farm to downtown Memphis, 7 minutes away on a private road. Our 500 acre farm is a paradise for dog owner wanting plenty of space to enjoy off-leash walks.

This is a working farm! There are four 100 year old share cropper homes along with two new homes built by Little Custom Homes LLC designed in a similar style. All are located on a private road facing the Mississippi River levee. Mound City was named by the early settlers for the Indian mounds located on this property, one still remains today. It was an important river down for East - West trade during the late 17 and 1800's. Mound City was burned by Federal troops in 1863, but remained an important trading town until the Harahan Bridge was finished in 1892. The Harahan Bridge now accomodates a spectacular bicycle and pedestrian crossing, connecting Arkansas and Tennessee, and easily accessible from the houses. The old commissary at Mound City was featured as a honky tonk in scenes of the movie "Great Balls of Fire", featuring Dennis Quaid as Jerry Lee Lewis. It is located 200 yards from the house and has been restored.

As a guest of this farm stay, you'll find barbecue grills, a garden, and laundry facilities. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Marion farm stay is smoke free.
