Guest Review: -- "Just wanted to say thanks for a delightful stay this week. The breakfast was superb and the location of the house to the historical part of town was so handy, we could walk everywhere we wanted to. Your hospitality was very generous. We have stayed at many bed and breakfasts and we mark you right up there with the best of them. Also, it was a bargain for the price of the stay. It was also inviting for a return trip in the near future. Once again, thanks for a great time and an interesting visit to as wonderful a town as Natchez." -- The Stelly's, 8/9/02"
