New Orleans, Louisiana

3 stars

Known as the Crown Jewel of Louisiana’s River Road, Inn at Houmas House, Plantation Country is an outstanding antebellum estate, bursting with southern charm. The set location of many a film and TV show, actors such as Bette Davis and Chevy Chase have filmed here, so it may well feel more than familiar to you! When you’re not sightseeing, spend some time at leisure in the gardens, home to an ancient oak alley and year-round blooms. The dramatic and inviting Fountain Courtyard is another popular gathering place for guests. Dining at Houmas House is not just a treat, it’s an experience. Latil’s Landing Restaurant in the French House is over 230 years old with original beamed ceilings, cypress mantels, wood burning fireplaces and original wood floors. Feast on gourmet cuisine served upon Limoge china, soaking up the grand atmosphere that prevails. For less formal meals there is Cafe Burnside, serving everything from healthy salads and fried oyster po-boys to filet mignon, washed down with a mint julep perhaps or a glass of wine served from the estates very own wine cellars.

“Very informative and relaxing tour. Our tour guide, John, brought history to life. Highly recommend for all age groups.”

The grounds are beautiful and the number of water features on premises was very pleasing. Happy to see some of the history of a former time remains.

“The tour was lacking in information”

Aug 03, 2025Crandall12

I am from Louisiana and have toured many plantations. I have learned so much about the windows for breeze, doors are large due to large furniture, furniture has designs at the foot, beds were raised due to animals coming into the home, closets were taxed so they used armoire’s. Pictures on the wall are typically original or children of original owners. None of this was mentioned. They didn’t know who was in the pic. Such a disappointment for my family from up north that were interested in Planation History. The gardens were really nice around the house but as you walked out on the other part of the “38” garden acreage. It was not nice. $35 is a steep price to come out with minimal knowledge of the history of a plantation. Someone needs to do some homework.

“Great visit”

Jul 13, 2025Chris_vN1

We visited Houmas House in June 2025 and thoroughly enjoyed it. Too bad we couldn't enjoy more of the gardens due to the rain. We also visited Oak Alley the same day. If you're most interested in the actual house, Houmas House is the better option. It felt less rushed and more relaxed (not so many tours, allowing photos etc).
