This was really the mansion at the top of the Natchez bluff. The home includes much original and period furniture. Local historians provide excellent tours and are very knowledgeable. We learned a great deal.
Love this home! It is beautiful with an amazing view of the river. My family has visited many times, and I remember visiting it as a child. I will continue to return to Rosalie for my southern visits.
very interesting, but the tour guide could have given more information on the history of the people who lived there, because the history of a beautiful house is the architecture, but also the lives of the people who lived there.
Rosalie was recommended by our B&B host because it has so many original pieces. The house was taken over as a Union Headquarters during the war and General Gresham had many of the home furnishings moved to the attic so that they wouldn't be destroyed. The result is that the furniture, china, silver and decorative porcelain have all been preserved. The home is a classic Greek Revival style. It stayed in the family for years and was purchased by the DAR in the late 1930s. Nancy, our tour guide, was delightful and knowledgeable. To my way of thinking this home is the most lovely of all the antebellum mansions in Natchez, not because it is the grandest, but, because of its grand views of the Mississippi River .Our tour lasted just under an hour. Buy tickets in a package at the visitors' center to save $6:00.
My friends and I enjoyed this home the most. Fantastic tour guides with great stories about the home owners, "Yankee" generals and home's history. The furnishings are original and well kept. You must tour this home!
Rosalie a very beautiful and historic plantation home. We enjoyed the tour very much and would recommend it to others.
The tour was informative and a great introduction to natchez! We learned not only about the history of the mansion but of Natchez.
One of my favorite tours. The mansion contains many of the original family pieces. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and took his time talking with the group. Must see in Natchez!
This was the only historic home that we visited during our stay, and it was a good choice. The docents did a good job of describing the history of the home and its residents.
Rosalie was one of two historic homes we toured in Natchez. Rosalie was well preserved and gives a good feel for living conditions of the times. Our guide was very knowledgable of the home and the family. Well worth your time.Take a look at the river view from the upstairs porch.....spectacular.
