Melrose is splendid
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 2/5/07
The NPS guide was well informed, not only about her subject but also about Natchez and the local history. The fact that most of the existing furnishings are original to the family which built the home lends an authenticity to what is shown in the hoiuse and grounds which is lacking in most of the other homes in the Natchez area. Also, the tour includes both floors of the main building which several of the other antebellum homes in the area do not offer unless one is a paying guest.

A Must See
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 4/6/06
The history, the majesty, and the heartbreak that make Melrose will leave you speechless.This is one of my favorite homes in the Natchez area. The park service has informed guides that give you insight to the families and their struggles. Please make this a stop on your trip to Natchez.

Beautiful
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/10/04
Probably the most moving thing I've ever seen in the American South. Melrose is a scene out of a classic southern novel. The Romantic Majesty of the Main Home play against the horrific slave quarters. Something people of all races should see.
