As Christmas is fast approaching, I would like to take this time to wish our guests a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.  2016 should be exciting for Natchez with all the Tricentennial events planned.  Bisland House Bed and Breakfast has been very fortunate this year.  We have made many new friends with our guests and have enjoyed spending time with each of you.  Enjoy your holidays, and remember to hug the loved ones and spend as much time as you can with them.  We look forward to 2016 and meeting new friends (our guests) and revisiting with old ones.  Please have a blessed, safe, and prosperous New Year.

News from Natchez, Mississippi

The Hot Air Balloons have come and gone.  The weather was beautiful except for the wind, so unfortunately the balloons did not fly.  Read the Blog of Melanie and Mark Spencer and see that they still had plenty to do in Natchez, even if the balloons didn't get to take off. Melanie Warner Spencer and her husband Mark Spencer are travel writers from New Orleans.

Lewis Jordan Brown

We at Bisland House were lucky enough to have the Brown family from Bournemouth, England owners of the Wyvern Hotel in Bournemouth, England.  Check out this video of Lewis Jordan Brown, just 14 years old and a BIG fan of Jerry Lee Lewis.  He recently was invited and  performed at Jerry Lee Lewis's 80th Birthday Party in Memphis.  For more information on this very talented teenager go to his website www.lewisjordanbrown.com.  Lewis was nice enough to perform after breakfast for us and our guests each morning of their stay at Bisland House.  Thank you guys for choosing Bisland House Bed and Breakfast. Maybe one day we can travel to England and stay with you at Wyverton Hotel.

Hey Ya'll, it's Fall in Natchez, Mississippi

Greetings Everyone,  It's been awhile since I have posted but there is so much going on in Natchez, Mississippi this time of the year.  Fall Pilgrimage has been going on for the last week or so.  Private antebellum homes are on tour until October 12, 2015.  Visit natchezpilgrimage.com for details.  Natchez Little Theatre presents "The Little Foxes" every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturdays until October 10.  Byron and I plan to go to a performance soon.  Great Mississippi Hot Air Balloon Races are just around the corner October 16-18, 2015.  Most of our B and B's are full.  I suggest getting on wait lists if you cannot find any other accommodations.
The weather is beautiful in Natchez now.  I hope it lasts.  Bisland House Bed and Breakfast still has some openings for Fall Pilgrimage.  Call Christine to book.  If you have never been to Natchez, Ms., you need to add us to your bucket list.  Natchez Antiques Forum is November 5-7, 2015 followed by Angels on the Bluff November  5,6, and 7th.  Everyone here is excited about Natchez's Tricentennial and celebrating our 300th Birthday.  Events will be planned throughout the year.
