Twenty-two consecutive perfect guest reviews. We are not a management company and we are not brokers — Blair and Michelle Poe own this house and maintain it themselves.
We have housed work crews for years.
Most recently an Inc. 5000, ISO 9001 certified, MBE-certified industrial contractor housed a crew of six to seven here for 207 consecutive nights while they outfitted a local warehouse. They booked thirty-four nights to start, then extended twice.
That is the pattern we build around. Take the house for the first thirty days of mobilization. Extend month to month for as long as the project runs. Give thirty days' notice at demobilization.
The strongest argument for a house is not the invoice — it is workforce retention. Journeyman electricians are the hardest role in data center construction to fill, and replacing a traveling journeyman costs far more than any lodging line item. A crew member with a private room, a real kitchen and somewhere to sit down after a twelve-hour shift does not quit.
The Horn Lake crew house
Approximately 3,000 square feet. Five bedrooms, three and a half baths. Fully furnished and turnkey — linens provided, nothing to buy and nothing to set up.
A locked garage for tools
Thousands of dollars of tools come off the truck bed and go behind a door that locks. No hotel at any price can offer this.
Single occupancy — a private room each
One king and four full beds — one person per room, no shared beds, no bunks. Two bedrooms and two full baths downstairs; three bedrooms, a jack-and-jill bath and a half bath upstairs.
Room for the trucks and a trailer
A 2,600 square foot driveway takes five full-size vehicles, plus the garage. There is room for a trailer — which rules out most competing houses.
Built for shift work
Blackout curtains throughout, on a quiet residential street with no through traffic. Data centers commission around the clock; some of your crew will be sleeping at ten in the morning.
A full kitchen and laundry
Range, refrigerator and dishwasher — not a kitchenette — plus a washer and dryer in the house. Crews cook instead of burning per diem at the drive-through.
Somewhere to land after a shift
Private pool and a covered cabana with a TV, seasonal. Central air, a fireplace and a grill. Grounds and pool maintained by us every seven to ten days.
Included: power, water, gas, Wi-Fi, trash, lawn care, all furnishings and linens.
Five bedrooms against five hotel rooms
The honest comparison is rooms against rooms. Here is how the house measures up against a block of extended-stay rooms for the same crew.
| This house | Extended-stay hotel block | |
|---|---|---|
| Tool storage | Locked garage | None — tools stay in the truck |
| Crew location | All five under one roof, a private room each | Scattered by availability |
| Truck parking | Garage plus 2,600 sq ft drive. Room for trailers. | Shared lot, often tight |
| Bathrooms | 3.5 for a crew of five — two full downstairs | One per room |
| Night shift | Blackout curtains throughout. Quiet street, no through traffic. | Corridor noise, housekeeping |
| Kitchen | Full — range, refrigerator, dishwasher | Kitchenette |
| Laundry | Washer and dryer in the house | Coin-operated |
| Billing | One invoice a month, direct with your company. No platform or booking fees. | Per room, per night |
| Cost per person | $2,000 / month | $2,200 – $2,800 each |
Hotel figures are typical mid- to upper-tier extended-stay monthly rates in the Southaven and Memphis market.

Where it is
Horn Lake, DeSoto County, Mississippi — inside the Memphis metro, in a quiet, safe, settled residential neighborhood with no through traffic. Trucks, trailers and a garage full of tools sit secure overnight, and a crew coming off shift comes home to a neighborhood, not a parking lot. Exact address on enquiry.
