Girls Weekend Getaway!!

La Belle Maison was a step back in time. The setting was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed our coffee on the back porch. The house was appointed with everything we needed. Conveniently located within walking distance to the Gone With The Wind Museum and Lyons Park. Truly a gem to be enjoyed in Jefferson, Texas.

Step Back in Time

The moment we stepped into La Belle Maison we felt as if we had stepped back in time. The home is gorgeous, filled with period furniture pieces and decorated with beautiful artwork. The beds were very comfortable and the room temperature was easily kept comfortable with the central system in conjunction with some wall heating units in the bedrooms. Overall a wonderful stay.

One night stay in Jefferson

Enjoyed the house. Great location. House was actually much bigger than expected. If I had any thing short of five star, it would be in regards to cleanliness. Floors were dirty, as well as countertops in areas. However, it did not negatively impact our stay.

Great Sisterly Get Away

My mother, her sister, and cousin (all in their 70s) spent 2 nights together and had the greatest time. They loved the house. The alarm went off unexpected the owner addressed right away. Jefferson is a quaint town and a great get away if you enjoy a slow laid back historic atmosphere. They would very much recommend to others wanting the same experience.

Beautiful Home - La Belle Maison

Beautiful home! Very open & spacious and full of history. It’s was like stepping back in time. The beds and seating were very comfortable!! It’s close to everything, so you could actually walk, which is very nice. Big back porch area for relaxing, visiting & listening/ seeing all the birds in the mornings. You do have to share a bathroom as it only has one but it is very big. We loved staying here & will definitely stay again.

The perfect place

I can't communicate well enough how nice this property is. Check in was simple. Everything we needed was present. The house and property are lovely. It's close enough walk to downtown Jefferson, which we did. We walked back at 1:30 am and you can't do that most places. Hardwood floors, tall ceilings, big back porch...it's fabulous.

Beautiful home.

We had a wonderful time at this property. Gwyn was easy to communicate with and made the process very easy. We had our ‘Till death do us party’ at this home and it was perfect. The house is a lot bigger than i expected it to be. the pictures do not do it justice! the only issue i had with this place was the cleanliness. there was bobby-pins on the nightstand from the previous guest and a few other little things like water bottles and cobwebs. overall our stay was still very good. it’s a lovely place.

About the host

Hosted by Gwyn Weatherford

Host profile image
We are Hal and Kathy Poindexter and we are the owners of La Belle Maison. Although we are both in our seventies we are still pretty active at our dairy goat farm in Carthage, Texas. Our good friend Gwyn Weatherford has agreed to be the host of La Belle Maison!

Why they chose this property

The house is very centrally located in the heart of the Historical district and very convenient to restaurants and shops! If you want to experience the Victorian era and be surrounded with period decor, then this is the place to have that romantic getaway you have been dreaming about!

What makes this property unique

Please enjoy our Tea Room and try out several kinds of tea as well as coffee! Put on a fancy hat and pretend to be in the Victorian era! There is usually a wine bottle or two there for your pleasure! And if you look in the little freezer there are some little cakes and goat cheese you can pull out to thaw and enjoy! Take advantage of the nice big back porch to enjoy your morning coffee and afternoon tea or wine!
