About this property
Magnolia Serenity Suite -Queen-Jetted Tub -Balcony
Escape to the Magnolia Room — your private Carriage House suite tucked along Bayou Rapides. From the moment you step inside you’ll find thoughtful touches for a relaxing stay: a jetted whirlpool tub for long soaks, a separate glass shower, private water closet, and a kitchenette stocked for light meals and snacking. Step out onto your balcony for quiet morning coffee with tree-lined, water views or curl up in the tastefully decorated sitting area.
Perfect for romantic getaways, anniversaries, or a peaceful business stay, the Magnolia Room pairs the charm of a country cottage with easy access to Alexandria’s dining, museums and the airport. The suite offers privacy, luxury conveniences, and a restful atmosphere. **Please note: this is not a Double Room. **
Discover Susan’s Cottages, four private suites tucked within the historic Southern Belle Pecan Orchard along scenic Bayou Rapides in Central Louisiana. Just minutes from both Alexandria and Pineville, our cottages combine the peace of the countryside with easy access to shopping, dining, museums, concert halls, and Alexandria International Airport (AEX).
Each suite is thoughtfully designed with comfort and privacy in mind. Guests enjoy plush beds, whirlpool bathtubs, furnished balconies overlooking the bayou, and mini-kitchenettes with dining space. For added convenience, free on-site laundry facilities and complimentary parking are included.
Whether you’re here for a romantic getaway, honeymoon, wedding night, family visit, or business trip, Susan’s Cottages offers a quiet retreat with modern comforts. Couples love the private balconies and whirlpool tubs, while business travelers appreciate the fast access to Alexandria and Pineville paired with a restful atmosphere after a long day.
Adding to the charm, our on-site Metal Art Studio, “PawPaw’s Secret Shop,” showcases handcrafted yard décor and original artworks — a unique touch you won’t find anywhere else.
