Enjoyed our stay in Natchez. Cottage was a couple of blocks from Bluff Park which is nice to walk and seems to be the hub of activity. Cottage is also located near downtown shops and restaurants. The only issue is the loud street noise.

The perfect place to stay in Natchez! Great location. I was in town for a convention. This adorable place was within walking distance to the convention center , great restaurants, across from the river walk and the Rosalie house. Be sure to check out the Canal St. Market next door and the striding Post across the street. The courtyard at Isabella house was such a relaxing place to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening and coffee in the morning. You will not be disappointed.

Comfortable and cozy

This cottage is charming and comfortable. It is plenty big enough for our little (3) family. We love that it is in town and within walking distance to many of the places that caught our interest. The tv was easy to figure out--big plus. The beds are super comfy. Overall, it was a great experience and we are all impressed with the accommodations.

Such a cute little place. The decor was so cute. Loved the fenced in backyard. Its right off of Canal so the traffic was a little noisy but it wasn't a bother at all for us.

Wonderful experience

Property was in the heart of the city in walking distance to most everything. Property was well maintained and had everything we needed on our stay. Also the biggest thing to me was the communication. The owner was very quick to respond to all messages and made us feel at home.Would recommend to anyone who visits this area.

We liked it all. The little 1885 house was precious, furnished with appropriate period antiques. The back yard area was wonderful. It was such a pleasure to sit out on the large back porch and drink coffee in the morning. The house is the perfect location being within walking distance from several historic sites in Natchez, including being right across the street from historic 1820 Rosalie. Everything we needed for a pleasant stay was provided.
