Bed & Breakfast in Memphis, TN

Built in 1846, Cedar Hall is a grand town home, the oldest still standing in Bartlett, Tennessee today. The original owners, William and Elizabeth Bond, came to Tennessee in the early 1800's and purchased a large amount of land. They built a temporary, small log cabin with a dirt floor to live in while this grand home was being built. After living in the home for two years, it burned to the ground.

The home was rebuilt on the 12 acres that is sits on today by William and Elizabeth's grandson, Samuel Bond, an established physician. It got its name from the many cedar trees that lined the long drive to the house. Kate Bond, a familiar name in the Bartlett area, was Samuel bond's granddaughter and was known as "the flower lady of Cordova" with her thriving floral business. The Bond family was also responsible for bringing the first railroad into Shelby County.

In 1870, Edmond Orgill (another familiar name in the Memphis area) purchased Cedar Hall. The fine architectural work seen in the home today was imported from Europe, while the Orgill family resided here.

In September 2012, Denise Suthoff purchased Cedar Hall from Jay and Jeanette Rainey. The Rainey's had owned the home for nearly 40 years. Today, Cedar Hall has been transformed into a beautiful bed and breakfast, and wedding venue.
