" The Stockade Bed and Breakfast is a peaceful and elegant retreat with deep historic roots. It's located in a tree-lined neighborhoods of South Baton Rouge. "

Review:★★★★★ The Stockade Bed and Breakfast was built on the site of a Civil War stockade. It's listed on the National Register of Historic Places. I really enjoyed this hacienda-style guesthouse which offers a beautiful blend of comfort, culture, and Southern hospitality. This is a great place to stay if you're visiting LSU, planning a romantic weekend, or looking for a quiet getaway.
