Violet Hill is a very nice historic B&B. Host John does a great job and the rooms are well done. My downstairs room was spacious and had a huge bathroom with large jacuzzi tub. I was only in town for one night (college reunion) and didn't have time to really take advantage, but I was impressed.

The inn is just a few houses from Front Street and the property sits alongside the Cane River. Swings, comfy chairs and a dock are all available for guests who want to spend a lazy afternoon along the river.

Breakfast looked great! Unfortunately, I am not a huge morning eater and opted for a glass of juice "to go." As always, John was very accommodating and sent me on my way with a smile.

I will stay at Violet Hill or any of John's other properties next time I'm in Natchitoches.

This was our first stay at a B & B. We just got back from a 2 night stay at Violet Hill. Great house, room, view of fireworks from the dock on the 4th of July! John was a great host there when you need him and gone the next minute. Will be back soon!

My stay at the Violet Hill was wonderful and extremely comfortable. John the Inn Keeper was gracious and the epitome of southern hospitality. The house was furnished in what I believe interior decorators would call an "eclectic" style. But what do I know.....I am not an interior decorator. What I do know is the Violet Hill is a warm, comfortable and clean Bed and Breakfast where you will be treated in a kind, friendly, welcoming and generous manner and that is the definition of hospitality. DId I mention it is on the river. WOW what a boat dock!!
