missingWrote a review on Jan 06spacious suitedelicious breakfastrelaxing gardencreaky bed
We had a fantastic time at our spacious suite where we loved soaking in the amazing clawfoot tub and enjoying the cozy sitting room. The garden area was lovely for relaxation, and the morning breakfast was plentiful and delicious, especially those fluffy biscuits! Just a heads-up, the bed creaked a bit, but that didn’t take away from our wonderful experience. 😊

Amazing grounds with historical charm. Our room could use some updates, especially the furniture. Enjoyed the ghost tour and local food options at Restaurant 1796. Limited parking at night made it tricky to find a spot.

I absolutely adored my enchanting stay! The rooms were filled with authentic antiques that whisked me back in time, and the delicious Southern cuisine was a highlight—especially the bread pudding that was to die for! On top of that, the guided tours offered rich stories about the plantation’s history and ghostly legends, adding an exhilarating layer to my visit.

The setting was gorgeous, and the staff genuinely friendly and attentive. However, my room felt outdated and the restaurant was just okay. While exploring the historic grounds was delightful, the nighttime ambiance was a bit disrupted by loud guests. Overall, a memorable experience with room for improvement.

Incredible paranormal experience and lovely grounds
I stayed for 1 night in the Double or Twin Room and was captivated by the beautiful grounds and rich history of the plantation. The ghostly encounters added an exciting twist to our stay! We enjoyed a delightful breakfast included with our visit, and the staff was always ready to share fascinating stories about the property. I wish the dining area had a bit more seating, especially during peak hours.

The grounds feature beautiful landscaping, providing a serene atmosphere perfect for exploring or relaxing. The unique historical ambiance and the interesting paranormal tour offer an engaging experience for those brave enough to investigate.
During my stay, accessing the cottage proved a challenge without a luggage cart or assistance, making for a cumbersome arrival. Mosquitos were unbearable, particularly when I tried to relax on the porch, which put a damper on those outdoor plans. Breakfast was pretty basic and lacked variety, which was a bit disappointing for a place with an otherwise rich historical allure. Additionally, having certain areas of the plantation off-limits outside of tours felt restrictive, limiting the overall experience.

Stayed in the Judge Clarke Woodruff Suite. Super spacious with a nice en-suite that had a tub we loved. The bed was comfy but creaky—kind of expected for an older place. We had some spooky vibes with doors opening and sounds at night, but that just added to the charm! Definitely felt like stepping back in time here.
