This house has so many beautiful features and great docents to explain furniture. You get a real understanding of how wealthy residents lived in the 1800's.

We went to Rosalie after Longwood and enjoyed seeing a finsihed home of the period! Our guide was very informative and made it all very interesting. It was a surprise to hear that Natchez at one time was the richest city per head of population in the USA - and the mansion houses there are testament to that. Rosalie has... More

We visited here and were really glad we did. The tour lasted around half an hour and was brought to life by the excellent tour guide. The rooms were amazing and it gives such an insight into the lives of the people who resided there. Everything is immaculate and you can be transported back in time with a little bit... More

All of the plantation homes in the area (we visited 3) highlight the wealth of the region when the southwestern part of Mississippi was first being settled and cotton was king. The original families have long dispersed to other parts of the US. This home is now run by the DAR.

Rosalie, a beautiful house on the bluff overlooking the Mississippi River. Only 2 or 3 families lived in the house so many things were from the house although most from the 2nd family in the Civil War period. DAR owns house. guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the house.

Natchez is an interesting town because of all the antebellum homes and mansions. We enjoyed Rosalie quite a bit because of its story. Although our guide was new to the job (we found out later) he gave an excellent talk and handled many questions about the home and the previous residents. We visited during low season during the week so... More
