Situated in the heart of the Piney Woods, The Carriage House Bed & Breakfast provides an authentic retreat from city life. This historic property is a stone's throw away from Jefferson's Carnegie Library, built in 1907, and is the only bed and breakfast in the area to have received the prestigious 'Certificate of Excellence' from TripAdvisor seven years in a row. The city of Jefferson is notable for its commitment to restoring the natural wetlands along the banks of the Big Cypress Bayou, a sight you can take in while traversing the five-mile track surrounding the property.
Located 75 kilometers from East Texas Regional, transport to and from The Carriage House Bed & Breakfast is easy and convenient, with Route 49 providing a bus service for those wishing to explore Jefferson. This close proximity to Jefferson also offers guests the chance to partake in the 60th Annual Diamond Bessie Murder Trial sessions held on select weekends. With such a rich blend of modern comforts and historical allure, the Carriage House confirms its status as an unmissable retreat spot.
Carriage House provides a selection of rooms, each unique in its own right. The Ruth Lester room, for instance, boasts an oversized private bath with a claw foot tub and a step-in shower for ultimate pampering, while another room, light and airy, is perfect for a girls' weekend or a small family. Each room includes access to the full range of amenities available, including the fire pit, wrap-around porch, and complimentary wine.
Every morning at 9:00 AM, the homely dining room located in the main house fills with the aroma of fresh brewed coffee, ready for guests to sit by the fire and enjoy. The Carriage House's own Jessi is famed for her two-course breakfasts, with the second course a rotating range of favorites such as Italian Frittata and Banana Fosters French Toast. For special occasions, guests may also indulge in the breakfast in bed option, complete with two complimentary mimosas.
Services at the Carriage House Bed & Breakfast are taken to the next level with Jessi's hospitality. The cozy courtyard with fire pit, the beautiful garden area, and the close-knit community make socializing and making new friends a breeze. The hotel offers an exclusive event on Fridays: a beaver trapping hunt, held in the property's own beaver pond, with a lucky draw determining the participants.
