Ideal setting and accommodations
Well-furnished and supplied; a very large space decorated uniquely; great location; wonderful outdoor courtyard. Would love to rent the space again if we return to Natchez. Great place for a short stay or an extended stay. The hosts are quite hospitable. (I would, however, recommend new mattresses for a more comfortable night's rest.)

This was the perfect location for walking to shops, chilling in the courtyard, or just relaxing in the gorgeous antique filled apartment. The apartment was spotless and the owner provided so many thoughtful touches. They thought of everything! We will definitely be back.

Perfect Downtown Stay in the Heart of Natchez
We had a fantastic stay at this charming apartment above the antique shop! The location couldn’t be better—just steps from everything downtown Natchez has to offer. We parked the car and walked everywhere with ease.The apartment itself is exactly as pictured—full of character, antiques, and thoughtful decor that really immerses you in the charm of the Old South. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed, and the space was clean, comfortable, and incredibly spacious. The beds were cozy and made for restful nights.We especially loved the outdoor areas—a big front porch with rocking chairs to enjoy the view, and a beautiful courtyard in the back with plenty of space to relax. There are a lot of steps up to the second floor, but once you're up there, it’s well worth it.The hosts were warm, helpful, and available if we needed anything. It’s clear they’ve thought of everything to make guests feel at home. This spot is a gem, and we’d absolutely stay here again!

Great hosts and a wonderful stay in Natchez
My husband and I had a wonderful 3-month stay at the Above the Law apartment. The location in the downtown historic district was perfect for us to walk to shops, restaurants and, of course, the Mississippi River and the gorgeous bluff area. The apartment was beautifully furnished with art work, period furniture and interesting collections, and we also made good use of the street-side and courtyard balconies, especially in the mornings and evenings. Our hosts, Richard and Jill, were so kind and generous with information, suggestions and great stories about Natchez, its history and culture that we felt immediately at home. We had some great conversations with them and overall the people we met in Natchez were friendly, always willing to chat and offer help as we wandered - obvious tourists - around the the city. Our stay in Natchez was a real pleasure and we can definitely recommend a stay at the the Above the Law.

Christmas Season in Natchez
Property is very convenient and walkable to all of downtown Natchez. The interior of the apartment was exactly as pictured. Artwork and antiques everywhere. Kitchen was well stocked with cookware and appliances. The only issue we encountered with the property was the lack of ice or a functioning icemaker in the refridgerator. Overall, if we were to revisit Natchez we would choose to stay at “Above the Law” again.

Over the Anitques
Over the Law is the perfect place to sample the Old South and Natchez. It is an antique-filled apartment above an antiques store. The wide porch offers space to relax and view the city. The kitchen was well stocked and inviting, and the furnishings were memorable.

Cool house in great location!
This is a cool, old apartment above a business. It is decorated in many period pieces. It was very clean and well appointed in the kitchen and the owner is very friendly and helpful. There was written information about the town and nearby areas in the house and the owner was available by telephone for anything we needed. The outside areas were also great--a large deck out front and a courtyard in the back with tables and chairs. Overall, an outstanding stay.

Great Place to Stay!
I can't say enough about this wonderful location and the hospitality of Richard and Jill. The apartment was beautiful with everything you could possibly need at your fingertips. The beds were very comfortable...made for a good night's sleep. There was great outdoor space, too, including a big balcony with lots of rocking chairs and a beautiful courtyard with several tables. There was also good parking space in a parking lot next door. The location was perfect, too, with easy walking distance to anywhere downtown. The big test for us always is 'would we stay there again' and the answer in this case is a resounding YES!

Girls Trip
The property was perfect for what we needed. First time visit to Natchez so close to all the sights we were going to see. Several great restaurants within walking distance. Richard was a great host. Responded very quickly to any question. The place was very clean and well stocked with lots of extras. The a/c worked great.
The only disadvantage was the stairs for 3 older women carrying luggage but we managed.
Would stay there again.
