The [[inn]]s, or stands, as they were called along the Natchez Trace, provided lodging for travelers from the 1790s to the 1840s. These stands furnished food and accommodations and contributed to the spread of news, information, and new ideas. The food was basic: corn in the form of [[hominy]] was a staple, and bacon, biscuits, coffee with sugar, and whiskey were served. Lodging was normally on the floor; beds were available only to a few due to many travelers and cramped conditions. Some travelers chose to sleep outdoors or on the porches.<ref>[https://www.nps.gov/natr/learn/historyculture/historic-stands-along-the-old-natchez-trace.htm "Historic Stands along the Old Natchez Trace."
