Breakfast was delicious too. The porch was a lovely place to rest and it's close to everything in town. I was sad to see it listed for sale as this was our first trip and I can see many returns in our future. Such a great home!!

The room was beautiful and charming! It really took us back to our grandparents house. We also enjoyed sitting on the porches and out by the little pond. We almost didn't want to leave the house in order to go out into Jefferson. Staying at Kennedy Manor was really a relaxing experience and Tommy and Tracey are super nice people. We will be back many times in the future.

Oh, how a year changes all the good that a single place could ever have…read more As you all can see, I have consistently reviewed this place as an exceptional place to stay, but because of the unfortunate lack of care and attention to retaining long-term folk from current GM Kimberly the luster and beauty of a place can be so completely and utterly tarnished! Will admit our group was admonished for opening a door not properly marked as an emergency exit. After a second infraction I personally apologized and we shook hands and went on with an understanding from her that all was OK. Only to find out she reports to her board of this serious situation where we didn't obey her authority! Trust me the only situation here is the building in a violation of a state fire code that they don't want advertised. Very small and pedantic minded person to state we had no issue but after we have left and are miles away will in turn admonish you and abolish your reservation without any type of due process or knowledge other than the impersonal email. Absolutely abominable service behavior even if it wasn't towards decades long patrons. This new GM Kimberly is the complete antithesis of a service oriented person! She tells lies, will not resolve dangerous obstacles in patrons way, is not maintaining a good aesthetic to the building or grounds (overgrown vines and accumulating trash) and she does not fully report situations how they occurred. Very unprofessional! And to further show her lack of character, Kimberly invoked other long standing fine employees as part of the lie that she told her board. To the Garden Club: you to need to review the behaviors of your manager instead of revoking reservations. Maybe even ask around what Kimberly's nickname is amongst staff and citizens alike. Sad sad state of affairs at Excelsior. PS I write this in two states: having already spoken with Kimberly this morning trying to resolve this situation amicably and secondly fully knowing my reservation will be revoked too. I will certainly let you all know how this issue is further managed.

The building and furnishings are quite nice and the courtyard lovely so it is especially…read moredisappointing that the amenities are not. We had no idea there would not be any housekeeping services during our 3 night stay, we took our own trash down to the reception to be emptied, we had to ask for towels and carry them up to our room; the room needs dusting; the door facings are dirty with finger prints; the mattress is terrible and needs to be replaced as it sags in the middle; the pillows are of poor quality; there is no place to hang clothes. Our room is the Hayes Room which overlooks the roof and A/C unit. The real issue is our disappointment not to find all that your website promises. The room rate was quite expensive!

REVIEWING THE COFFEE SHOP ONLY…read more It's a quick and good cup of coffee in the historic hotel downstairs lobby (but this isn't he coffee shop you're looking to hang out in; try another place that's busy as a bee HIVE in town) Ordered our usual before we left out for the last run on March Miata Madness weekend. Decaf flat white with heavy cream. Everything came out exactly to spec and we're on our way! Follow our adventures online: www.tent-on-wheels.blogspot.com

I have waited long enough to send a review of my stay at 3 Sisters last fall. My experience was…read morecompletely unplanned due to a rainstorm that made me stop my motorcycle road trip for safety reasons. At the time, there happened to be a motorcycle rally in memory of a fallen motorcyclist and every hotel room in the area was booked. Through the magic of cell phone internet, I was able to book a cottage to get me off the iron horse and start a great evening of exploring Jefferson, Texas. I managed to be greeted by a great gentleman right around 4:20. He was extremely friendly and his hospitality was amazing. He made sure to provide me with any needs and information I had to make my stay extremely pleasant under the circumstances. I am looking forward to booking again this Summer and will insist on staying here again. I normally refuse to book anywhere I have already been in the spirit of trying something new but there is no where else in Jefferson that I can imagine staying.

My husband and I love, love, LOVE this place! We stayed here earlier this year when I came to…read moreJefferson to speak at the Spring History Haunts & Legends conference. The moment I was invited back for the Fall conference, I hopped onto Air BNB and booked us here again. Yay! The Three Sisters Cottages BNB is a trio of little cabins in historic Jefferson, Texas. (It would be a great place for 3 couples to come and stay because you'd each have your own cabin, but could share the fire pit in the middle.) The cabins are so cute and cozy inside! They feature every modern luxury, including WiFi that actually works, a/c, TV, and heat. Each one features a kitchenette with a coffee maker, frig, and microwave. The hosts (Tammy and Randy) are helpful and friendly. They make you feel special without being intrusive. They are easy to communicate with and respond quickly to emails and phone calls. As for the breakfast: It's delivered right to your door in the morning! Not only are the breakfasts tasty, but they are photogenic. Your friends will be jealous when they see those food pics on your social media. (Speaking of, if you're on Instagram, check out the Three Sisters Cottages account and you'll see what I mean!) So next time you and your partner need a weekend escape, give the Three Sisters Cottages a try!
