Shadowlawn Bed and Breakfast

This was our first experience at a bed and breakfast. Ms. Burnett Avakian has set the bar very high for any future B and B's we may ever visit in the future. Our accommodations were lavish and comfortable. Breakfast was 5 star with silver service and a varied selection of delightful Southern cuisine. Ms. Avakian could not have been a more hospitable host. We left feeling as if we've made a new Friend! This is the best in Columbus for comfortable lodging. Cannot recommend staying here more. Well done Shadowlawn!! If ever we visit Columbus again, please expect our call!!!

The owner was the sweetest and best host I’ve ever had. If you’re looking for a piece of Columbus History and a great place to stay, I can’t recommend this place enough. I will definitely be back and plan to bring my family. Thank you again Mrs Brunette

It was just by chance we got to experience this home, something’s are just meant to be. Burnette and her magnificent home was an experience you could only dream of. To experience the home is something that will stay with us forever. Burnette’s welcoming and generous nature was a true Southern experience.

Beautiful home and grounds. Beautiful Antiques! Stayed over when visiting my daughter in college at Mississippi State. It’s just a short drive from Starkville. The host Burnette could not have been more accommodating! Highly Recommend

Absolutely an amazing experience and stay at a beautiful, historic bed and breakfast. The home was truly beautiful and full of history and interesting antiquities. However, the true beauty in this home was not the home or antique pieces, Bernette, the owner, is the true gem when you stay at Shadowlawn. She goes above and beyond for her guests and truly cares for the people staying in her home. Mississippi is known for hospitality and Bernette epitomizes the spirit of hospitality in Mississippi. When you talk with Bernette, it is like talking with a friend you have known for years. The breakfast she makes is five-star quality and made from scratch. The rooms were very comfortable and well-designed and decorated. We slept like babies. We also were staying during a MSU gameday weekend, and the rates for our stay were great, especially considering the alternatives were very pricey and do not come with Bernette and her amazing personality and attitude. We highly recommend anyone visiting Columbus or Starkville to stay with Bernette at Shadowlawn. We are already looking forward to our next visit to Columbus because we already know where we will be staying, which is Shadowlawn. Why go anywhere else?

Our stay was perfect! Our host was extremely helpful and accommodating in all matters. The bedroom was amazing and breakfasts were outstanding. We would definitely book Shadowlawn when staying in the Golden Triangle
