    My girlfriends and I were looking for a girl’s weekend to get some R&R. Sweet Cane Inn is just what we needed! The owners, Kathy and John are such great people and hosts and we learned so much about the house and its history. The whole weekend was perfect for a girl’s getaway. We are still raving about the beautiful house and the charm of the city. This is truly a gem in a wholesome little community. Our stay was in mid November and they were decorating for the start of the Christmas season and it looked spectacular! The beds felt like heaven which was great for me, because I can’t ever find a bed so comfy as my own. This was better! The treats at 4pm added an extra touch and it was a great time to unwind from the day, sipping wine and munching on hors d’oeuvres with friends and other guests. Breakfast was a wonderful southern delight and I still want to learn to make those cheese grits. I can’t wait to visit again!

    My daughter and I had a wonderful visit. Sweet Cane Inn is lovely. The Oleander room was the best with the most comfortable bed and pillows I think I've ever experienced. The coffee maker in our room made a perfect cup of coffee. Afternoon glass of wine made me feel very at home. Breakfast was very nice. It was a relaxing reprieve from city life in Baton Rouge

    The Sweet Cane Inn was the perfect retreat to Ring in the New Year

    The Sweet Cane Inn is truly a destination. Beautiful, charming and the feel- of- home are just a few words to describe this B&B. John and Kathy (the owners) are so natural at what they do and exceed Southern Hospitality. The innkeepers, Racheal and Conner, also add a special touch with great service and smiles. The Sweet Cane Inn is in the perfect location and is very similar to a boutique style hotel surrounded with the history of Natchitoches. We can't wait to celebrate our "Engagement" Anniversary at our favorite B&B, The Sweet Cane Inn. David & Breezy, East Texas

    The Sweet Cane Inn...Wow, where do I start! From the moment we walked into the foyer we felt the warmth and elegance that comes with a well loved home. I believe that is why our weekend was so special. Love overflows in this place. Yes, this is a Bed & Breakfast, but it is also John and Kathy’s home and believe me, they LOVE people. As other couples arrived, they also were greeted as if they were old friends coming to visit. Another pleasant couple to meet is Conner and Rachael who are the caretakers of the home. They serve a special breakfast each morning in an elegantly designed dining area. They cook up some special foods and make sure that everything is always full and ready to enjoy. They also set out a special mid-afternoon snack of homemade cookies along with refreshing lemonade. Chilled wine is available for those of us who want to relax a wee bit more. Walking in, we saw the grand staircase with a view of a beautiful stained glass window. To the right of the staircase are two parlors. The first has a wonderful selection of books, a fireplace, and a comfy couch to sit back, read or just relax on. The second parlor is a beautifully decorated room where guests can gather and get to know one another. We enjoyed the day shopping on Main Street (which is walking distance from the Inn) and watching fireworks by the river. Afterwards, we went “home” and were met with an unexpected surprise. John had the second parlor set up as a movie room! There is a large pull down screen (discretely placed), and plenty of space for guests to sit, relax, and enjoy a movie. We felt so special! At the end of the day, we retired to our luxurious and comfortable room that enveloped us with a peaceful sense of serenity. We are very much looking forward to our next visit. John and Kathy, thank you for everything!

    Beautiful and Relaxing All in One Package!

    My daughter and I took my mom for a few days to Natchitoches and loved our stay at Sweet Cane Inn! The atmosphere was so relaxing and the Inn is beautiful inside and out! Looking forward to going back and staying longer next time!
