Reviews
"This was a fantastic preserved plantation. Not one of the bigger ones, however it has a ton of history. It was also home to Clementine Hunter! There’s several of her works that you can only see here as well. The guided tour was excellent and very informative. I highly recommend the tour instead of trying to walk around and read the story boards. It’s well worth the money. It’s also the only way you can gain access to the big house."
