Myrtles B&B

Louisiana


Brave visitors who want to confront the Myrtles supernatural residents can opt to spend the night in one of the B&B rooms in the main house or attached guest cottages. It’s possibly your best chance for spotting a specter among the Carrara marble mantels and gold-leaf furnishings, which are all over-the-top opulent, while retaining a certain historical elegance.
