If you are at all interested in history, this is the place to stay! Mimi and Ron were wonderful hosts. Mimi gave us delightful oral history of Natchez . The property is near the historic district and the rooms were comfortable and clean. A full breakfast started our days there and relaxing evenings in the parlor ended them. We would highly recommend a stay here.

My friends and I stayed at the Wensel House during pilgrimage and really loved it. The Millers are the owners and were great hosts. The house is right downtown, just a block or two from the river and near a lot of the nice old homes as well as restaurants and boutique shopping. The breakfast was excellent - the best biscuits, jelly, eggs, sausage, juice, coffee, tea, grits, fruit in a very pleasant Victorian setting. I very much enjoyed my stay and highly recommend it.

My husband and I visited Natchez in the second week in December. We were visiting family in Baton Rouge and drove to Natchez for an overnight visit. I called the Wensel House the day before to reserve a room. It is located in a historic neighborhood that is good for walking and viewing lovely old historic homes and only about two or so blocks to the main part of town. We never used our car the whole two days in Natchez, we even walked to the visitor center too. The owner was very nice and laid back about her check in and check out rules telling us to call her from the front porch house phone when we arrived and she came a few minutes later to let us in the house. We arrived about 11:45am. We had the First Room. It was a lovely, open, bright room with large windows. My first impression was how simple the room was furnished. Not your typical fru-fru b and b room. It was not cluttered with nick-nacks, wall hangings or piles of show pillows on the bed. I liked that. Spacious bathroom with tub-shower and two closets that had extra bed pillows. There is a small tv in the room although we did not even turn it on. The breakfast was huge...pancakes, eggs, sausage, bacon, grits, fresh fruit salad, biscuits, ....all delicious and seconds were available. There is a guest parlor to sit in and enjoy visiting or reading. After check out and loading up the car the owner let us keep our car parked at the house while we walked back into town until the late afternoon. Overall the stay was great. The room prices were very reasonable. Check out the website for more pictures and info.

We stayed two nights in the cottage and enjoyed every second of our time there. For a taste of Southern Hospitality (and fabulous breakfast) I would absolutely recommend 1888 Wensel House. The location is perfect. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. We have only positive thoughts of our short stay and only wish it could have been longer!
