The Cedars Plantation- Church Hill, Mississippi

Now lies the Earth all Danae to the stars,
And all thy heart lies open unto me.
Now slides the silent meteor on, and leaves
A shining furrow, as thy thoughts in me.
Now folds the lily all her sweetness up,
And slips into the bosom of the lake;
So fold thyself, my dearest, thou, and slip
Into my bosom and be lost in me.

This three-story Greek Revival plantation home is located ninety miles southwest of Jackson. The large double-tiered galleries and Doric columns are visually stunning, as are the beautiful gardens and ponds which surround the home. As you step from your automobile, you immediately notice the aromatic azaleas and magnolias and the moss-draped trees. Inside you will find four guest rooms with private baths. The rooms feature queen canopy beds, period furniture, and personal refrigerators. Those looking for something a little more grand should reserve the spacious suite. Couples will no doubt find the fireplace and Jacuzzi a romantic touch. Public areas include the library and the enclosed porch. The library offers music, books, magazines, television, and a fireplace. The enclosed porch is great for relaxed conversation, a book, or cards. Couples should also take a pleasant walk around the grounds and enjoy a view of the lake. Along your walk, you could stop and spend some time relaxing in the gazebo, or perhaps visit the pond to feed the ducks. Don't miss the full breakfast which is served on antique china, silver, and crystal. Historic Natchez is a short drive away where you will find antique shops, antebellum home tours, and riverboat gambling.
