    Wonderful Experience

    April 11, 2013

    This was the most beautiful B&B I've ever stayed in, and the best experience I've had in 25 years of B&Bing. The rooms and furnishings and extra details were lavishing. Hospitality was magnificent. The view from our back porch was serene. Everything was spit spot clean. Breakfast was delicious. Janice was delightful to us and our two teen daughters. I've never wanted to rave so much about a B&B.

    Spring Break is nice in Plantation Country

    April 03, 2013

    The innkeeper was very accommodating and laid back. The room was lovely. The common room was spectacular. The breakfasts were among the best we've had. We appreciated the Southern cuisine: grits and crawfish etouffe, for example. The other guests were delightful as well. The Stockade is easy to find, near the University, and also near to good restaurants.

    Like A Second Honeymoon

    March 19, 2013

    My husband and I enjoyed every moment of our stay at The Stockade. The location surprised us- so tucked away, yet so accessible to just about everything we love. The room was a dream- spacious, clean, and luxurious. The food was second to none- delicious AND nutritious. The service was impeccable. Janice went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our time. We can't stop talking about the memories we will always have because of the awesome experience of The Stockade.

    Gracious living in Baton Rouge

    March 10, 2013

    The Stockade was everything we were looking for: charming, historic, and very comfortable. Janice started our day with an excellent breakfast, and we liked walking across the street to several restaurants at the end of a busy day. Note to fellow birders: the nearby BREC Bluebonnet Swamp trails were very productive.

    Great Southern Hospitality

    February 26, 2013

    The Stockade B&B is quite a gem in a wonderful location with fabulous gardens, courtyards and landscaping. As you enter you notice a grand space with 20 foot ceilings and large windows looking out to the courtyard. Also the decor is very tasteful with original paintings and even original Audbuon and Gould bird prints!! Janice greeted me with a glass of nice white wine after I drove 14hrs to Baton Rouge. The rooms are very nice with many antiques. However the best part of the stay is the wonderful breakfast. WOW all home made and cooked to order. This is how a B&B should be!!
