Meador Homestead Bed & Breakfast — Hotel in Hattiesburg

Momma Dean is the host at the Meador Homestead Bed and Breakfast. There are two cabins - one is a log cabin built in the 1800's. Updated of course, but it retains a lot of past.

My son, grandson and myself were going to Hattiesburg for a NCAA college baseball regional tourney. All the hotels were full and the closest room was 36 miles away.

I looked for a bed and breakfast and we lucked into the Meador Homestead Bed and Breakfast. I called and Momma Dean answered the phone. I was in luck and was able to book for the Friday night.

When we arrived in town Friday, Momma Dean met us at the location and showed us around the log cabin. It was straight out of the past, but updated. The one we stayed in was built by her great grandfather. It had a bedroom and across the breezeway was a sitting room. The other room had a kitchen and bath - and a beautiful modern shower. This area also had a loft that had a king size bed. I slept in the log cabin bed - a rope bed. It was very comfortable.

The cabins are on a beautiful property. There is a small lake about 200 yards from the cabin. Also on the property are a dining room and a larger tea room. Mamma Dean also has tea parties and small lunches in these two facilities.

Breakfast was great and we talked with Mamma Dean for awhile and she told us all about how the Bed and Breakfast came into existance.

Beautiful and Peaceful! So much history here. From the moment you step foot into one of the cabins you are taken back in time 100 plus years. The sweet soothing smell of a fireplace makes you wonder just how many stories, hopes and dreams were shared throughout the years right here in this very spot. If you let it, your imagination will take you back to a time of horse drawn carriages and...

Mama Dean is unbelievable in her hospitality. Definitely get the country breakfast so you get her breakfast casserole. It would’ve been a huge mistake if we had just gotten the farmers breakfast with just scrambled eggs and bacon. Her casserole is life-changing! Both cabins are amazing, the bed in the main old cabin is so comfortable! The hospitality here is unrivaled! Also the tea...
