Why We Love It
Located between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Houmas House Estate and Gardens allows visitors to experience life on a sugarcane plantation in the 1800s. The guided mansion tour walks visitors through the property’s rich 250-year history. Make sure to grab cocktails at the Turtle Bar and dinner at Latil’s Landing in the original 1770s French House.
What’s New
Dancing in Dixie takes place every Friday night in the Dixie Café. Enjoy live music from local bands and feast at the amazing River Road buffet. Also, coming in October and November are new fall gardens, perfect for romantic walks or Instagram-worthy snapshots.
