IIRC there are some mount options that might help if you search the docker docs, but for me I just create some local docker volumes to hold my code and mount those instead of mounting host folders. It feels a little weird and unnatural that your code is 'hidden' in docker's volume folder (under /var/lib/docker/volumes) in the VM instead of in a folder on your host machine. But it gets you into more of a mindset that this is just a temporary checkout and the real persistent home for the code is your source repository (github, etc.), so you don't let things linger without being checked into a branch somewhere.
