About this property

CanDi on the Cane Guesthouse

Perfectly offset from the hustle and bustle of downtown historic Natchitoches, Louisiana. Voted Top 10 Best Small Historic Towns in America, aka ‘the City of Lights’ and ‘the town Steel Magnolias was filmed in’- a little less than three quarters of a mile away. Located directly on the Cane River with 1.25 acres to indulge yourself in. This cozy guesthouse is poolside featuring a private entry, and a full private bath. Swim, fish, wander and most of all, relax in this tranquil setting.

Relaxing Getaway for Two

We really enjoyed our stay and found it very relaxing and quiet. It’s not big, but was perfect for us two and was very comfy. We enjoyed swimming in the heat of the day and relaxing on the patio at night. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. We’d love to come back and stay again sometime.

Relaxing Trip

My mother and I came here for a bonding trip. Our room was so cute! This was perfect for 2 to stay. Love the pool area in the common area we enjoyed relaxing and listing to the fountain in the pool. Property manager is amazing! She wanted to make sure any small details were taking care of. If you wanted to book a romantic trip for two this would definitely be a place to stay!

Christmas festival stay

Our stay at CanDi on the Cane was wonderful. As soon as we walked in I loved it. It smelled great and the host had Christmas music softly playing on the Alexa. A great touch. The room and deck area were both comfortable and relaxing. A short drive to the downtown area. Our host was very helpful with any questions we had and recommended a nice brunch spot for Saturday. I would absolutely stay here again if I get the chance to visit the area again. I highly recommend Candi’s place!

Cozy

This one bedroom was a cozy, cute, and very clean place to stay. We enjoyed going walk by the river. Was not very far from downtown so we were able to get around fairly easy. We throughly enjoyed our stay here! Only con so can list is shower head stream was weak, which was minor.

About the host

Hosted by CheriE

Host profile image
Welcome to CanDi on the Cane Guesthouse & Shack. I am a global traveler and have worked in the hospitality business for decades. I love to travel, and I love to create an environment for travelers that is memorable. Featuring our property on AirBnb is a first step to formalizing a dream of running a formal Bed & Breakfast.

I have a very modern family, celebrating 10
years of marriage. A very social 7 year old boy who has a 10 yr old shitzu as a fur-brother, who has a 3 yr old shitzu as a girlfriend. They each enjoy entertaining and showing their hospitable side.

We hope you will choose our tranquil setting, nestled in one of America’s Top 10 ‘Best Historic Small Towns’ (featured in USA TODAY) as your landing place. We hope you love it so much, we become your destination spot.

Why they chose this property

My passion is in the hospitality business. I thrive on seeing my guests having a good time and knowing that I am a part of the reason they are enjoying themselves. This property was not only developed as our retirement home, but a home where we can entertain and provide our guests with the utmost of escapes.
