Shack Up Inn's Interests
General
preserving old things, music, shacks, garage sales, shit off the street and just about anything most folks could care less about...... you know ----- just stuff -----
Music
mostly the older blues and country music like from the 1970's all the way back to the first recordings. drop back 70 years or more and imagine Charlie Patton or Son House getting off the train at the Hopson Plantation and playing a little music. That shit had to happened all the time...
Heroes
sharecroppers, tenant farmers, old blues and country musicians who suffered thru life
About me: it should read, about us; established in 1998. the B & B stands for bed & beer, no one here can cook. we have 6 sharecropper shacks and 10 rooms, that we call Bins, in the Cotton Gin Inn. nothing fancy here folks, a mini MOON PIE is your pillow mint. If you like the 5 star shit, "GO SOMEWHERE ELSE". with us, what you see is what you get. we are located just 3 miles south of Clarksdale, MISS right close to the xroads of hwy 49 & 61...

Hey guys, thanks for the add, I didn't know you were around here. I stayed there a couple of years ago when travelling Mississippi and I can't say enough about the great experience it was. Thanks for doing this, and keep it up!
Thanks for adding me! My sister, Janet and my Mom, stayed at the The Inn several years ago! I have longed to go ever since. I have a cousin in Oxford and plan on a journey soon! Would sooth my soul to sleep in the womb of BLUES!!!! Thanks
Yo, what's up?!! Hey, if you & Laura find yourselves anywhere near Beale Street this weekend, I'm playing with Bob Margolin & crew at his late-nite jam at the Rum Boogie, Fri & Sat 11-3 AM. C'mon down!!
