Welcome to The Mary Frances — Your Luxury Escape in Southaven, MS
Sleeps 10 · 4 Bedrooms · 2 Bathrooms · Brand New Construction
Welcome to The Mary Frances — a brand new, Memphis-inspired DR Horton home nestled in the heart of Southaven, Mississippi, where Southern hospitality meets modern comfort. Whether you're gathering the whole family, celebrating a milestone, or just need a home base for exploring one of America's most iconic music and food cities, this property was designed with you in mind.
From the moment you walk through the door, you'll feel the thoughtful care that went into every detail — from the Memphis skyline art adorning the walls to the premium furnishings chosen for both style and comfort. This isn't a generic rental. It's a curated experience that puts the soul of Memphis right at your fingertips.
With four spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a queen sleeper sofa in the living area, The Mary Frances comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests — making it the perfect choice for family reunions, friend getaways, wedding parties, sports travel groups, or anyone who refuses to compromise on space and quality.
Bedrooms & Sleeping Arrangements:
Bedroom 1 — King Suite (Primary)
The primary bedroom is your private sanctuary. Featuring a plush king-size bed dressed in premium DKNY bedding and Casaluna sheets, this room includes a dedicated ensuite bathroom for total privacy. A 55" Fire TV with access to Disney+, Hulu, ESPN, and Peacock means you can wind down in luxury without ever leaving the room. Blackout curtains, ample closet space, and thoughtful lighting round out the experience.
Bedroom 2 — King Bedroom
The second king bedroom offers the same premium feel — a generous king-size bed with hotel-quality linens, a 55" Fire TV with full streaming access, and plenty of room to spread out. Perfect for a second couple or the guest of honor in your group.
Bedroom 3 — Queen Bedroom
Bright, comfortable, and beautifully appointed, the third bedroom features a queen-size bed with premium bedding and its own 55" Fire TV. Whether it's kids, teens, or adults, this room sleeps comfortably and feels like home.
Bedroom 4 — Queen Bedroom
The fourth bedroom mirrors the same quality and comfort — a queen bed, premium linens, 55" Fire TV with full streaming, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes everyone feel like a priority guest, not an afterthought.
Living Room — Queen Sleeper Sofa
The living area features a high-quality queen sleeper sofa, perfect for accommodating a 9th or 10th guest without sacrificing comfort. The sofa is dressed with fresh linens and is far above the typical fold-out experience.
Living Room
The heart of the home is an open, airy living room that flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining area — ideal for groups who want to be together without feeling cramped. Sink into premium leather seating while enjoying the 55" main TV with Disney+, Hulu, ESPN, and Peacock. The electric fireplace adds warmth and ambiance on cooler evenings, making this space equally inviting in every season. Memphis-inspired artwork throughout the living area tells the story of the city you came to explore.
Dedicated Workspace
The Mary Frances features a dedicated workspace complete with a leather chair and a full-size desk — perfect for staying productive without sacrificing comfort. Whether you prefer a wired Ethernet connection or our blazing-fast 1GB Xfinity WiFi, seamless connectivity is always at your fingertips.
Full Kitchen
Fully stocked and ready for real cooking — not just reheating. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator with ice maker, gas range, microwave, and dishwasher. We've stocked it with all the essentials: cooking basics, baking sheets, dishes, silverware, pots and pans, and a Ninja coffee maker with everything you need to brew your morning cup. Whether you're making a big group breakfast before a day of sightseeing or cooking dinner after a long day on Beale Street, this kitchen handles it all. A breakfast bar with seating provides additional casual dining space alongside the main dining area.
Dining Area
Gather everyone around the full dining table — it seats the whole group comfortably. This is where the stories get told, the laughter gets loud, and the memories get made. The open sightlines into the kitchen mean the cook is never left out of the conversation.
Covered Patio
Step outside to your private covered patio — a perfect spot for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or just taking in the fresh air. Whether you're grilling out or winding down after a full day of Memphis adventures, the outdoor space gives your group room to breathe.
Laundry
A full-size washer and dryer is available for guest use — a game changer for longer stays, families with kids, or anyone who packs light and plans to stay a while.
Technology & Entertainment
We take entertainment seriously. Every bedroom has its own 55" Insignia Fire TV, all loaded with Disney+, Hulu, ESPN, and Peacock so your group never has to fight over what to watch or where to watch it. High-speed Xfinity 1GB WiFi blankets the entire home, handling everything from 4K streaming to video calls to remote work without breaking a sweat. WiFi credentials are posted in the home for easy access.
The home is also equipped with a Schlage Encode Plus smart lock for keyless entry — no lost keys, no lockout stress. Your unique code will be sent before arrival, and check-in is completely self-guided and seamless.

About the Home
The Mary Frances is a brand new DR Horton construction — meaning everything is fresh, modern, and pristine. No worn furniture, no outdated fixtures, no mystery smells. You're getting a home that still has that new-house feel, with finishes and appliances that haven't been through years of rental wear.
The layout is open and family-friendly, with wide hallways, LVP flooring throughout the main living areas, and a design that balances style with practicality. There's ample parking in the driveway for multiple vehicles, and the quiet residential neighborhood provides the peace and privacy a large group needs after a busy day of exploring.
This home sleeps 10 in beds — two kings, two queens, and a queen sleeper sofa — with a private ensuite bathroom off the primary bedroom and a shared full bathroom serving the remaining bedrooms. The layout works well for multigenerational families, friend groups, and anyone who values having their own space within a shared home.
