We rented two rooms for a weekend family road trip before Christmas. We were very pleased with the wonderfully cared for and decorated house, and the town is terrific. Don't miss the Visitor's Center! More

This beautiful, period-furnished 1890's home owned by Ron and Eleanor Fry is the perfect location to tour Natchez from. It is centrally located near downtown on a quiet, tree-lined street among other period homes. The home and furnishings are magnificent and the Frys are excellent hosts. And breakfast was delicious, too. I would definitely stay here again. More

My husband and I spent two nights here and we were very pleased and happy with our rooms and morning breakfasts. Ron and Eleanor make you feel right at home and are a great resource for information of the area. Natchez is a delightful town and if we ever pass that way again, we would not hesitate to stay at...

Ron and Eleanor treated us well. Our room heat was not functioning correctly, and they attended to the problem quickly and without defensiveness. They brought in a space heater immediately and Eleanor even offered her own robe. The breakfasts, by the way, we're a pleasure. More

Thanks to Ron and Eleanor, the owners of this beautiful Bed and Breakfast, for a wonderful stay in their home for the holidays. Eleanor is a marvelous cook - breakfast was special each morning. The couple make a great host and hostess and work very hard at making all guests feel welcome and special. Our room was so comfortable. The... More

Finding a pet-friendly B&B in Natchez was difficult, but I lucked out with Aunt Clara's Cottage at the Devereaux Shields House. The Cottage is lovely; the room (I stayed in the "Alice" room) was extremely comfortable (the sheets were the softest I've ever seen); the hosts were friendly (without being intrusive); and the food was delicious. The most amazing thing... More

This is a wonderfull B&B. All of the rooms well done. Breakfast was great. Breakfast is at 8:30 in a room with all the other guests and we enjoyed all the interesting conversations, especially the ones about the palns for the day. A great way to start the day. Absolutely would return. More

My wife and I spent one night here and loved it. It's a beautiful home in the heart of Natchez. Our room was outstanding, complete with a large porch outside our second floor room. The owners were delightful and helpful, and yet very respectful of our privacy. We thoroughly enjoyed breakfast the next morning and met some fellow travelers who... More

This was our second time staying with Ron & Eleanor in Natchez. They made us feel like part of the family - everything was perfect, again. Ron recommended Pilgrimage to us during our first trip and we weren't disappointed - it was a truly great experience. If you want to relax, experience some great 18th/19th century history and be pampered,... More

This was the only B&B we stayed in on our US road trip and it made a nice change from impersonal hotels. We stayed in Aunt Clara's Cottage and our room was just fine, with a handy walk in closet. Ron and Eleanor are excellent hosts, providing a great breakfast over which we enjoyed chatting to other guests, comparing Southern... More
