    We stayed at the Maison Louisiane on 8/5-8/7. The room was very comfortable and clean. I can't say enough wonderful things about Pam, the owner. She was the perfect combination of an easy-going and attentive innkeeper. And the breakfasts are delicious! The only reason we didn't mark cleanliness as outstanding was because there was rust by the drain in the shower of the room in which we stayed. But it was certainly clean, and I know my own tub has it's fair share of rust spots as well. We would definitely stay there again.

    We are from St. Louis and came to Louisiana to visit family. We stayed two nights at Maison Louisiane. We had a great time. We loved being close enough to the shops/ sightseeing. This will be where we stay next time we're in Louisiana. As mentioned before Pam does a great job!

    We recently stayed at Maison Louisiane in the Clairborne Suite. The suite was even nicer than the photos on the website and the bathroom was huge! I actually slept better in the big king-sized canopy bed than I do at home. Ms. Pam, the Innkeeper, couldn't have been sweeter. The breakfast was delicious and very filling and we especially loved the stories she shared with us at breakfast. We would definitely recommend this B&B to our family and friends. Thanks for a great, relaxing weekend. It was just what we needed!


    Great weekend getaway

    The wife and I needed a break and wanted to see Natchitoches. The location is close enough to the Historic district shopping and sites that we can walk. The fact that we could also have our small dog with us was most appreciated.
