The perfect place to stay in Natchez! Great location. I was in town for a convention. This adorable place was within walking distance to the convention center , great restaurants, across from the river walk and the Rosalie house. Be sure to check out the Canal St. Market next door and the striding Post across the street. The courtyard at Isabella house was such a relaxing place to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening and coffee in the morning. You will not be disappointed.

Property was in the heart of the city in walking distance to most everything. Property was well maintained and had everything we needed on our stay.

We liked it all. The little 1885 house was precious, furnished with appropriate period antiques. The back yard area was wonderful. It was such a pleasure to sit out on the large back porch and drink coffee in the morning. The house is the perfect location being within walking distance from several historic sites in Natchez, including being right across the street from historic 1820 Rosalie. Everything we needed for a pleasant stay was provided.

Great Stay

My husband,mother, and our two dogs stayed for the 4th of July fireworks. This little cottage was perfect. It was a great location to walk to most places and it had everything we needed. A fenced back yard for the “kids” with a bbq pit was great. The cottage has so much charm. We loved it.

Wonderful Private Home

The house was very clean and beautifully decorated. The back yard enclosure is a great place to sit and relax and is very convenient for pets. It is walking distance from everything in town (or a very short, convenient drive). I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting a peaceful getaway.

Backyard bliss

We particularly enjoyed the big fenced in back yard and relaxing porch because we were traveling with our dog. He was endlessly occupied watching all the birds, squirrels and neighbor cat. That gave us lots of time to enjoy the beginnings of Spring. It is an easy walk to downtown and very close access to the River. The little market next door had lovely provisions. We are grateful for all that Jackie and Luc provided.

Everything was exactly as advertized. I can not say too much about how great our host was! They were extremely responsive and even came over to help us with the TV on the same day as they were heading out of town! We enjoyed how close the house is to everything and how cosy the house itself is. You really can't go wrong with this house!

Great stay in Natchez

Terrific stay at Isabella Cottage in the beautiful city on the bluff. My cousin and I were visiting Natchez for the Restoring Hope weekend, hosted by Our Restoration Nation. Isabella House has a great location. Super cute decor, comfy bed, nice bathroom and kitchen. Great back yard and covered porch, although when we were there it was too darn hot to enjoy it. Yes there was traffic noise, but we knew that ahead of time and weren't really bothered by it at all. Nice place all around and would recommend it to others.

Beautiful little house in downtown Natchez

This little house is perfect for those of us who love Southern History. Everything was set up for the guest and there is a house guide to help you with anything you need to know. I definitely recommend the stay. You are only a couple of blocks from downtown and all of the restaurants and shopping. Other reviews spoke of the traffic but after dark it does slow down so it is not as bad as it would seem. You do have to remember you are staying downtown.

A step back in time

Our first ever trip to the Bluff City was a wonderful experience, in large part due to our excellent accommodation in this lovely 19th century cottage. We spent a three-day weekend and everything exceeded our expectations! The rooms were luxuriously appointed and cozy. The noise from Canal Street was definitely noticeable but not intrusive, and the back porch and courtyard were comfortable and inviting (it helped that we lucked into ideal weather conditions - low 70s during the day and low 50s at night with low humidity). We heartily recommend the Isabella House for anyone looking for a comfortable place with a touch of the Old South, but with modern conveniences and a great location.

Quaint little Isabella House

The Isabella House is like taking a step back in time. The owner has done a very nice job setting-up the house to give you a feel of the period. This home has been restored nicely and sits near many historical areas in Natchez. There is a noise issue with S. Canal street but the owner provides a white noise device and ear plugs. To me that was very considerate and helpful. I will try to stay here again the next time we come to Natchez.
