Angels on the Bluff

Hey everyone,

Fall Pilgrimage is coming, 23 Historic Homes available to tour. Some private homes that are not open to the public. Everyday different homes are available to tour. Fall weather is usually great in Natchez.

Then the Great Mississippi Balloon Races, October 15th, 16th and 17th. Most rooms are booked now well in advance but keep checking because there are always cancellations in the last 2 weeks. We have a wait list started and will gladly take your name and number. We also check with the other BnB's to see who has cancellations and may be able to get you a referral.

One of our favorite Natchez events is Angels on the Bluff, November 12th and 13th, to benefit the Natchez Cemetery. Local citizens and actors portray famous Natchez citizens from history along a path in the cemetery. The cemetery is lit by hundreds of luminaries. It's not scary at all. We have purchased some extra tickets, because the event always sells out. Call in advance for reservations and we'll supply the tickets. Or you may call the Natchez Tourist Center and reserve tickets directly. They are $20 each and proceeds go to the cemetery for upkeep.
Weather should be getting cooler soon. Natchez is a great place to visit for that weekend getaway or just a few days off. Call us and we will help you plan your weekend. www.bislandhouse.com 504-913-7498 601-304-5806
