True Mississippi!
5/5 If you are looking for a true Mississippi experience with the bells and whistles, look no more!The family history, artwork, front porch, and lastly the beautiful design of the cottage…I could have stayed here forever!The owner Donald was wonderful! Not only did they leave fresh baked banana nut muffins in the cottage for us, Donald communicated with us and made sure our stay was perfect!The decor was astounding and I can’t say enough about the bed! I haven’t slept that well in a very long time!Having coffee on the front porch under the magnolia tree looking at out the water, and watching the blue birds and cardinals play was priceless!Thank you again Donald! See you soon in Mississippi!
