Reviews
"So much history on the grounds of the plantation. The video offered so much information. Such well-preserved items from our states history. Very friendly staff."
"We visited in late December on a Saturday. I think this would be more interesting in the Spring or Summer during a festival day. Still a cool historic stop. We were able to leisurely walk the self-guided trail in about an hour. Not much else to see. Most of the buildings are closed off with limited access to see inside. A brief elementary level description is posted at most of them."
"What a cool peice of history. We came for the syrup day, it was really neat to see how they make sugar cane syrup."
"I went with three friends (all of us are teachers) and 9 of our kids. When we got there, we were able to use the restroom and ask a park employee where we should start our adventure. The two park employees were most helpful and pointed us in the direction to go. We began our journey on the trail that starts behind the visitor's center. Not too long after we started walking, one of the park employees met us along the trail and basically gave us a tour of the grounds. He was so kind and informative. The park was not busy this day and he mentioned that as one of the reasons why he was able to come and give us a guided tour. He even uncovered the well and let the kids take turns cranking the well handle until the bucket reached the bottom. He made a game of this by asking the kids how many cranks on the handle would it take before the bucket reached the bottom. He mentioned that he hadn't lowered the bucket in a while and he was curious to see how much water he would be able to draw from the well. The kids loved this part of our visit! We did some geocaching as well, which was fun! We loved being able to tour the buildings and truth be told, having our own private tour guide made it all the more fun. We picnicked at the tables in front of the visitor center after our guided tour. While we were eating, we discussed how this would definitely be a place we would take our students on a field trip. I know some of the surrounding counties already are familiar with this destination as a field trip, but Newton County is ready to jump on board now! I would highly recommend this park to anyone!"
"I took the kids out for a day trip and this was just perfect! Beautiful and peaceful place for a picnic. Great historic site with many restorations to view. Would recommend this as a field trip or family visit any day!"
