January 26, 2013
We stayed in the Morningside room which is the only room on the 2nd floor. It is spacious and pretty. The owners thought of everything from having a basket of things such as shaving cream, toothbrushes, girly products that might have been forgotten at home. We enjoyed walking the river-walk which is only a couple of blocks away and then enjoyed the hot tub which is nicely secluded in the back of the house next to the very spacious parking area. Another very nice touch was a decanter with a small amount of port/sherry and two petite glasses with a dish of chocolates on a side table. There were sodas, beer, wine, water in the fridge waiting for us. The breakfast was amazing as was the conversation with owner, Lily. We love this place and will certainly go back again.

Our stay started off with a hitch in that there was no room available even though I had a copy of my BedandBreakfast reservation. Lily, the owner and host, checked and supposedly BandB had sent me an email earlier that the reservation had been cancelled. Didn't get it. Lily found a room at the Jackson down the street for Thursday night. We were back at Brackenridge House for the next two nights. Our room was lovely and well appointed with extras like wine glasses, microwave with popcorn, and lots of toiletries. Breakfast was well done food wise and offered good conversation with the other guests and Lily. The House is in the King William historic district and we took a leisurely walking tour through it, using the guide that Lily supplied. Every evening we walked to the Riverwalk and stood around like kids with our mouths open looking at the lights.

I always stay at the Brackenridge House when visiting home. Takes the effort out of visiting friends and family. This is a wonderful alternative to disruption of my family's routine and lets me have some peace and tranquility amidst the uproar of family reunions.

We stayed at B&B for our anniversary. It was cozy, beautiful and relaxing experience. Lily and Roland were amazing host. They were very flexible and accommodating for our needs. Breakfast was five star. I regret that I had to miss breakfast on second morning because we needed to leave early. Overall everything was top notch and we would surely come back!

Lily and Roland - Thank you for a wonderful, relaxing stay at Brackenridge House. We loved the Cardinal Room, the great breakfasts, the convenience to almost everything and of course your hospitality. The restaurant suggestions you gave us for dinner and drinks were great! You made us feel very special as though we were your only guests. Thank you again, Steve & Lisa - Nacogdoches, TX
