This place is always one of my favorites escapes but it hurts my heart seeing the landscapers, in 90 degree plus weather having to wear mask while working.

20240329 Everyone is so nice here. The VIKING Cruise was here today, and there was a tour group. This garden is beautiful! Dogfriendly too!! There is a cost for admissions, but if you eat at the Carriage House, admission is free. We did have lunch there. The food and service were excellent! Walk across the red Bridge from the parking lot will take you closer to the Mississippi River where the VIKING Cruise Ship docked.

Houmas House Estate and Gardens was beautiful. The grounds were amazing and the restaurant buffet was delicious!!! I had no idea it was such a large garden area. Beautiful and well kept.

We visited the Houmas House with the entire family. The grounds and gardens are nice (with many eccentric and some creepy pieces of art). We also did a Houmas House tour, which was fine but completely dismissive of the entire slave history of this place. When the group asked questions about slavery the guide said that they cannot really talk about it. What?! I know the website does not mention anything about slavery (let’s conveniently ignore the subject matter and pretend this never happened) but not even to mention all those hundreds of people on whose sweat and blood this place flourished while these Barons lived in luxury is very disrespectful in my view. So, after finishing the tour with much of it focused on the owner and his dogs and nothing on the true and meaningful history of this place, I left with a “something is not right” feeling.

Our tour of Houmas Plantation was exceptional. The grounds are breathtaking and are beautifully maintained. Our tour guide was one of the best we have ever experienced. He spoke clearly and was not hurried in his approach. He was able to answer all questions asked. We highly recommend this plantation.

I’m a tough reviewer but every dinner at Houmas House is perfect. Can’t find a fault even if I tried.

Beautiful old plantation, well kept.
Perhaps a bit spendy.
The museum has fairly limited artifacts. It's mostly just placards with dialog, which was interesting, but for the price a little more was expected./

superbes jardins
Nous n'avons pas fait la visite guidée de la plantation mais nous avons mangé au restaurant (très bon buffet, le bread pudding est excellent!) et nous sommes promené dans les jardins, superbes. On peut aussi accèder au Mississipi par un petit pont, c'est très sympa

On a visité cette plantation en novembre 2017, après avoir visité celles de Oak Alley et Laura Plantation. La demeure et le domaine sont très beaux. Néanmoins, je dois dire que nous avons été un peu déçu de la qualité de la visite guidée. La guide nous donnait une foultitude d'anecdotes sur chaque objet, mais sans les replacer dans un champs historique ce qui est assez dommage. Il n'y a également eu aucun mot sur l'esclavage - ce qui est sans doute un parti pris.

Très belle plantation, au milieu de superbes jardins à visiter. Restauration et hôtellerie de qualité, nous avons dormi dans les cottages entièrement décorés et meublés du style de cette époque,

Allow a couple of hours to visit. There is also a cafe. At the time of our visit it closed at 2pm, had assumed it might be open later and this is the only food outlet so keep the timings in mind.
Note the Great River Road museum is not included in the main house ticket price, we decided not to pay the extra.
