“True Southern Hospitality!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 March 2011
2
people found this review helpful

My husband and I have stayed at B&B's all over the south and this is by far THE BEST! Not only is it clean and beautiful, it's comfortable and you feel like you're at home. Miss Susie has not missed one detail in making her guests feel welcomed. The house is gorgeous and you feel like you're stepping back in time. You can relax on the porches and enjoy the perfectly manicured grounds. Don't hesitate for a minute to stay here... you would miss a gem.

“The most impressive B & B I have experienced”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 September 2010
3
people found this review helpful

I was traveling for business and arrived around 8pm. Although I was exhausted from driving 4 plus hours, I drove up to the Paxton house and smiled. The grounds are well maintained with ample space to sit on porches in the front and back. Inside, the house is impressively decorated with antiques and decorative plates.

I brought my 79 year old mother with me, so the Peach Suite was perfect (only drawback was the tub/shower that she could not get in, and the stairs were narrow and steap, but she could climb them). However, the Paxton House has other rooms which include stall showers. They also have a Garden/Carriage Houses, which I understand have accommodations for older/disabled travelers. I preferred being in the main house.

The French toast breakfast with fruit was sumptuous. We enjoyed talking to the two women, who run the B & B about travel and the history of the mansion.

Because I had to be at the courthouse at 10am, I forgot to ask about checkout, which is at 11am. I know it was an inconvience, but they let us stay until after 1pm, because of my circumstances and this was greatly appreciated.

If I return to Thomasville, I want to visit the Plantation house nearby for a tour.

“Don't Miss True Southern Hospitality!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 May 2010

person found this review helpful

This is real deal in southern hospitality. Susie and Wanda are true gems and made us feel like family at hello. The accommodations were wonderful and the home is beautiful.
Breakfast in the morning was the best - don't miss this great addition.
Step back in time and go downtown were we found more friendly people, great antiques, food, jewlrey and gift stores. Wonderful history in this area.
Only one thing wrong Susie & Wanda now have me hooked on the fried green tomatoes at "Richards" (another great place) and I live 6 hours away. I can't wait to come back to visit.
LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our family took over the whole house for four days. This is a great house for a group. Morning breakfast was DIVINE! It was the only reason most of us got up early in the morning. Wanda and Susie are wonderful hosts who take the time to get to know each of their patrons. We throughly enjoyed our weekend and look forward to returning to the Paxton House soon.

“Don't miss the Paxton House!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 April 2008

person found this review helpful

Absolutely delightful! We were in Thomasville without a reservation and decided to drive by the Paxton House (recommended by the AAA guidebook). When we saw it we knew we had to stop. It is a charming home that appears very well cared for from the outside so we felt comfortable stopping to inquire about a vacancy. Out walks Wanda with a friendly greeting and within 5 minutes we felt like old friends. She graciously showed us the available rooms--each one was immaculate and very nicely furnished with lovely antiques. We chose a room on the second floor with a queen bed, sitting room, and large bathroom with claw-footed tub/shower, but any room would have been just fine. Wanda made us feel at home with cookies and suggestions for a walking tour of the beautiful homes in Thomasville.

After a restful night's sleep we had a fabulous breakfast on the sunporch: fresh fruit, coffee, homemade french toast with bananas, and bacon--all graciously prepared and served by Wanda. Miss Susie visited with us after breakfast, and we learned about Thomasville in a way that is only possible by talking to a "local" person. She and Wanda are wonderful hostesses and we are already looking forward to a return visit. If you find yourself in Thomasville, this is THE PLACE to stay!
