We are a group of antique collectors interested in all in our 70s all with advanced degrees and interest in local history, historic houses, and gardening ... not to mention dining well!
This property rental caught my eye and I suggested it to the group rather than staying in a hotel location. It was perfect for our collecting interests. Each couple had private rooms and baths and we were still able to meet together in the common areas for television, conversation, and breakfasts.
The kitchen was fabulous. If we were to visit again, I would make plans to make much better use of it and actually cook! But, for us, there were simply so many choices for dining that we only had breakfast & evening snacks in the loft.
We tend to be an outgoing group and managed to make friends with a number of people during our stay. That included the local property manager for the location. The instructions for opening the coded front door were not written correctly. A local businesswoman was passing by and interceeded. She spoke directly with our manager and was able to unlock the front door. Phew!!
The property manager promptly provided items that were missing or things that we did not think to pack. She earns an A+ for prompt responses & willingness to help.
We LOVED the space and would rent again if we return to Natchez ... so many great places, so little time to explore them all.
The loft is part of a historic property and does have some issues age-related issues ... uneven flooring that can snag & injure, doors that might not always open or close properly, lack of enough supplies such as tissues or toilet paper ... easily rectified but those things should be checked PRIOR to a visit.
All-in-all, it was a perfect location for our group, well-educated, antique collectors, gardeners, and all in our 70s. The steep stairway did not dissuade us at all. Vehicle parking on the street was available without issue.
I would return just so I could return to the Dixon!
