Cozy Apartment

This was a nice, cozy apartment near downtown Jackson that provided a quiet, comfortable place to relax during a holiday visit. We brought our dog and were delighted that the property thoughtfully provided a dog bed and dishes. The kitchen was well-stocked with utensils and tools for cooking and snacking. It’s an old building with historic charm so some squeaky floors and windows but plumbing worked great and the temperature/heating was comfortable day and night (we visited during a mild December week). Overall, a positive experience and would stay again.

Address?

The check in process was confusing because the wrong house number was given. The apartment is nice. The AC didn't work on the last night and the WI-FI didn't work until day 5 of our stay. Otherwise it was fine.

Nice apartment

This was a nice remodeled apartment that was close to downtown. My husband and I along with another couple came up to visit our son for the day. Host was very nice to allow us to stay just one night even though that is not their policy. Bedrooms are very spacious and the small kitchen is perfect for our weekend adventure. Very clean and she equipped the house with some very nice personalized goodies. They were very quick to respond to any issues or questions we might have. We will for sure be back to visit.

About the host

Hosted by Jacqueline Austin

Host profile image
We’re thrilled to offer a luxurious and welcoming space near Downtown Jackson, where our family has invested and built connections for decades. Orange Door Properties is a small, family-owned business led by a mother-daughter team who take pride in creating beautiful, comfortable spaces for guests, with invaluable support from our dedicated maintenance crew. Our love for Jackson runs deep—not only do we own several properties in the area, but we also operate local businesses that contribute to the community’s vibrant culture.

As Jackson continues to grow and thrive, we felt inspired to create a comfortable, well-designed retreat for visitors to experience the best of our city. Hosting gives us the chance to share Jackson’s charm with others, and we enjoy knowing that our guests have a relaxing, memorable stay while exploring everything our lovely city has to offer.

Why they chose this property

Downtown Jackson has undergone an incredible transformation over the past decade, blossoming into a vibrant area with amazing restaurants, beautiful parks, boutique shopping, and unique attractions. A defining feature of Jackson is its Bright Walls Murals—a collection of 75 large-scale murals that add creativity and color to the heart of downtown. From the scenic parks and bustling restaurants to the friendly community vibe, Downtown Jackson has so much to offer. We chose this neighborhood because it reflects the best parts of Jackson: a blend of art, history, and community. It’s the perfect setting for visitors to enjoy Jackson’s lively atmosphere, all within walking distance from our apartment.

What makes this property unique

Our building, affectionately named “The Lydia,” honors both the location on Lydia Street and the owner’s granddaughter. As a historic building, it holds a special place in Jackson’s story. The apartment is located on the second floor, right above The Orange Peacock Gallery and Millie’s Orange Sofa, an art gallery and boutique furniture store. Staying here places guests in the heart of Jackson’s creative and historic district, surrounded by local artistry and charm. When we furnished the apartment, we thought about what makes us feel at home when we travel, choosing each item to create a cozy yet stylish environment. Unique, comfortable, and in the center of Jackson’s best attractions, “The Lydia” offers guests an experience that’s both luxurious and rooted in the spirit of our community.
