    Wonderful, Relaxing Stay

    May 30, 2013

    My husband and I took a short trip to The Elms before our first child was born. We wanted to relax, and that's exactly what we did! We stayed in the Drake Room, which has balcony access. The balcony is where I spent most of my time, as the breeze was perfect and the landscaping beautiful. Breakfast was delicious both mornings; Esther is a great cook and provided us with traditional Southern fair. The complimentary drinks were a great touch. This will not be my last stay at The Elms; I'll certainly return!

    The Elms

    May 08, 2013

    My husband and daughter stayed with me at The Elms when we were in Natchez for a wedding. We loved it. Our room was so beautiful and the walls were hand painted by the owner and it looked exactly like antique wall paper. I can not believe that the owner did it. The beds were so comfortable and that is so important to me. The shower was exceptional. There was a wonderful woman that cooked breakfast for us every morning on beautiful antique china. We were in heaven. A gentleman named Jerry was there to show us the home and to take care of us. He was such a Southern gentleman. I felt like he was part of my family before we left there. I would recommend The Elms to anyone.

    Wonderful Place

    May 06, 2013

    My wife and I stayed at The Elms, and it was wonderful. The minute we arrived, we fell in love with the house. The Kellog room, with it's king size bed was extremely comfortable. The neighborhood was nice and very quiet. My wife and I enjoyed a peaceful afternoon rocking on the second story porch, and loved the striking nighttime view through the grand oak trees. We felt like we were swept back in time, however the amenities of today accompanied us. Even though Esther was out of town, Jerry and Kathy were wonderful hosts. Jerry knows so much about the home, and Kathy provided us with a tasty breakfast. We want to come back very soon. Again, we had a fantastic weekend at The Elms.

    Beauty in Natchez

    April 11, 2013

    This B&B is located in a beautiful old home - it is well cared for and the rooms are large with comfortable beds. The food is outstanding - we stayed 4 days and had great breakfasts each day. They were served in the old dining room with elegant dishes and table settings. The owner is gracious and helpful besides being a wonderful cook!
