The docent, Will, was knowledgeable and made the tour interesting. We were explained to why there are no interior photos allowed, but silly. Would help business.

A nice, easy visit. Staff were over the top helpful and kind.

The diorama in back of the Gift Shop showing what the property once looked like was pretty cool. They have a cat (named Creole) who lives in the gift shop; she's very friendly and likes being petted. Nice array of gift shop items too. I took the self-guided tour for $3, I feel like it was easily worth it. I was a bit disappointed that they turned one of the houses on the property into an administrative building. Then the slave quarters were closed (I opened them and took a peek anyway), and I could only look through the windows at the Overseer's House and the Main House--the glare made it impossible to see anything, I really should have paid more and took the tour. It was nice to look through the Kitchen and Vegetable garden though; it's a real, functioning garden too! Don't do what I did; take the tour so you can enjoy the full experience!

We had a great tour guide and they were doing a cooking demonstration in our side kitchen. It’s worth the time it take to find it.

Why are there no picures of the interior. How many fireplaces, bedrooms, bathrooms ?

Tera Housley | Jun 30, 2018

Pictures are not allowed to be taken because of the age of some items. There are 3 bedrooms inside the home. The kitchen is outside along with the slave house and the masters house.

Is there a wheelchair available for a visitor to use while there!
