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.

“You as House Tour”

Nov 02, 2025Susan S

The house and grounds are beautiful. Our guide gave an excellent tour with lots of information regarding the history of the house and the families who owned it. There were only two of us on the tour so it was the perfect time of year to visit.

“Nice, but way overpriced for what you get.”

Oct 10, 2025TravelBug953

Over $120 for two adult tickets. The house tour was interesting, but did not contain a single word about the enslaved population that built and worked there. I’ve visited a number of plantation sites around the country, and this is the only one to totally ignore all the beauty was built by enslaved people. The gardens are pretty. The museum was NOT worth the entry fee (separate from the house tour and garden access) unless you want to read a paragraph or two about each of the plantations that were along the river. Am I mad that I went, no. Would I recommend this site, also no.

“Houmas House--gracious, beautiful, rich in history, and staffed by lovely people. Don't miss this wonderful experience!”

The Museum was a tremendous experience. The displays and information were outstanding, and everything is spacious and well organized. We had a 5-star lunch at the Carriage House, and a peaceful stroll through the grounds, which were absolutely beautiful! Everyone we encountered was gracious, helpful, and kind. Houmas House, with its beauty, history, delicious food, and exemplary staff, is an experience that shouldn't be missed. We can't wait to go back!!
