About this property
3BR 2Bth house, 1 pet free 2nd pet considered for fee 7 min to d'town Memphis
This beautiful new 3 bedroom, 2 bath farmhouse was finished October , 2019 and sits among 9 other guest houses, 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 owners wanting plenty of space to enjoy off leash.
Our houses are located on a working farm that produces commercial crops of rice, wheat, cotton, soybeans and corn. We also produce a variety of specialty crops (blackberries, peas, pumpkins, squash, corn, muscadines, kale and other leafy greens) for local markets and have our products seasonally available for our guests to enjoy.

Why they chose this property
Mound City has a long and deep history starting with the Native Americans who built the mounds that the town was named for, a visit from De Soto in the 1500's, to a trading post in the 1800's. The town was burned during the Civil War and was the site of the Sultana's sinking, the largest maritime disaster in US history.
We purchased Mound City and the surrounding plantation in 2011 and began the renovation of the existing sharecropper houses and commissary on this historic site in 2015. Although the 4, 100+ year old houses are completely restored and thoughtfully furnished with modern conveniences, they still maintain the flavor of their original purpose.
Since 2015 we've added 6 new houses, all in the same style as the originals, and located "next door" to each other, around the old plantation headquarters. Mound City Delta Farm Resort and Events now combines two indoor/outdoor event venues with 10 farmhouses.
