The Edlin House! Featured on HGTV's Hometown!

Welcome to The Edlin House! As seen on the HGTV hit show "Home Town" S5:E4 - A Musicianʼs Retreat. This cabin-style house was renovated by Ben and Erin, and you can see their amazing design and restoration work on on the episode. But now itʼs available for you to enjoy, too! Located just outside Laurel in Ellisville, MS. The property feels secluded, as if youʼre relaxing out in the country. But itʼs right nearby the historic downtown just a few blocks away. Itʼs perfect for your next getaway, and a great way for fans to connect to the show.

This cabin sleeps four, with a queen size bed and full size sleeper sofa (an extra air mattress for one is also included). However, thereʼs room for six people to eat on the kitchen countertop bar. Itʼs perfect for couples, or a small family to stay. The open floor plan in the living room is just the right setting for catching up with good friends and company, or sitting around and writing songs. The full bathroom includes laundry facilities. The deck area is fairly private, and a good place for morning coffee or a quiet evening time to reflect. Itʼs also a great place to grill out! Thereʼs a spacious yard for games with plenty of room for kids to play. And all the well-known sites in laurel are only just a quick few minutes drive away. Thereʼs also interesting places to visit right around the corner in Ellisville as well. Enjoy your stay, and explore all that the Laurel/Jones County area has to offer - today!
Attention: There is a security camera located on the front door of the house that covers driveway as well.

Edlin Cabin near Laurel
Perfect size for 2. Nicely decorated with one major flaw: linoleum on bathroom floor buckles and is dingy. While we were out and about enjoying our final day of vacation - early in the day - the owner sent us a laundry list (multiple times) of things we needed to clean and accomplish at the house - with a $50 additional threat fee if we didnt get each item completed. Tell me - why do we pay a cleaning fee????

Great weekend!
We were looking forward to staying at The Edlin House, and it lived up to our expectations--and then some! But we have to agree with others who have stayed there that it needs a new sofa! The cushions are smashed beyond comfort, and they are not the kind that you can flip from one end of the sofa to the other. It may be a good hide-a-bed, but it's lousy as the only seating in the living room. In spite of that (and all the rain), we enjoyed our visit to Ellisville and Laurel. We may even stay at The Edlin House, but we'll bring our own chairs. :)

We wanted to stay in a home that Ben and Erin renovated! It was very nice and cozy. Loved the countertop that Ben reconditioned. Had everything we needed and was nice and quiet. Ellisville is a sweet town and enjoyed our visit to Laurel! Perfect for a couple getaway. No more Rickey😅

Relaxing time
Our three day stay was quiet and relaxing. Being a fan of the show Home Town, It was fun to stay in a once featured house. The house was lovely and well equipped with everything from extra linens and towels, to a well stocked kitchen. We spent our days in Laurel which was only a ten minute drive. We are glad we took the time to come to this area of Mississippi.

Very cozy and quiet cabin. Only suggestion for improvement would be to have a seating alternative to the sleeper sofa. It’s not very comfortable.

It was just a cool place to stay. Everything is provided....it's like going back home as an adult. It's nice a quite, and when you walk outside it's smells amazing. You're going to have to visit in the spring for the smell, but it's an awesome place to spend a few days while touring Laurel!

Cabin Retreat
We loved Mr. Edlin's "Home Town" make over cabin. We; two moms (best friends) and our two daughters (best friends), stayed three nights. During the day we went sight seeing, exploring, eating, and shopping. We would go back to the cabin to relax and hang out and then go out for more adventures. Very clean, private, and easy access.

Perfect Quiet Spot to Enjoy Laurel and Surrounding Areas
If you're a fan of Hometown, and even if if you're not, this is a GREAT escape from the hustle and bustle of normal life! The extra touches such as the cool welcome booklet and information about local eats, etc, are really nice. You can tell that these people really care and want to provide a great experience for you! Super easy and convenient check-in and check-out procedure. This place is really clean and nice with no weird smells. The bed is comfy and the bathroom is nice with a spacious shower and full-size stacked washer/dryer. The kitchen was impressive! Not just the beatiful countertops with tons of space, but it is also stocked with more cookware and utensils than most homes! There was also a great selection of seasonings, spices, and oils. I tried some of the spices on our eggs one morning and that afternoon we went to the Knight Butcher in Laurel and I bought a bunch to take back to TN with me! The cabin is equipped with a nice TV with a Roku attached, and the wi-fi was plenty fast for our needs. On the inevitable rainy day, this is a great place to cozy up on the couch and binge old episodes of Hometown. Then when the rain subsides, you're just15 minutes from many of the other houses renovated on the show! I am also an amateur musician and guitar player, and it was super cool that there was an Epiphone acoustic guitar there to play! I DIDN'T bring a guitar on this trip since we were only going to be gone for a few days, so this was a pleasant surprise and it really made a connection to Kevin and this house for me. To sum it all up, this is the PERFECT place to stay if you're visiting Laurel or Ellisville, particularly if the draw for you is the show "Hometown." You probably appreciate nice things, subtle touches that show care and effort, and are a kind person who appreciates peace and rest while enjoying the opportunity to step away from busy city life and appreciate the slower pace of small-town life. This is the place for you.

Great house and town
The house was a perfect getaway. We had traveled on Ms Blues trail and this house actually had an acoustic Epiphone. Brought my own guitar but still enjoyed playing the Epi. Everything about the town from restaurant to the people were wonderful….. definitely do again!!!

Unbelievable restoration and finish out. Floors still a little creaky in kitchen and bath, but there were holes in the floor and ceiling when they started the ‘Reno. Worthy of a return visit.

Pure Peace
The property is immaculate -set in a quiet, wooded setting - not too far from main streets, but just far enough to allow some peace and quiet. The house retains its original character while also conveying a sense of the current owner, Mr. Edlin - which is surprisingly comforting. I'm not sure I have the words to capture how much we enjoyed our stay - just remarkable!
