The property in the gardens were breathtaking. Rooms were very nicely appointed and clean. The breakfast was awesome, and the service and staff was very accommodating. One area for improvement is the Wi-Fi. It was absolutely terrible.

Can't recommend it enough!

The Inn is a great place and we thought it looked lovely on the website -- but it exceeded all our expectations when we actually stayed: beautiful decor, fantastic setting, spotlessly clean and the food on site is great too. To say nothing of the house tour, bar, friendly and helpful people working there... a really fantastic place to stay

Loved the room. The only problem is that our room was right next to the road. Traffic started at 5 am. It is their cheapest room but to much money for the noise so early in the morning.

grounds are beautiful. The staff are very helpful, and the history is amazing. I did not like the fact that they seem to have erased the fact of servants and slaves on the plantation.

The property is beautiful and unique. The Inn was great as were the restaurants. The entire ambience is relaxing and special. Some of the processes could use improvement such as Check In - why have to call ahead and then be asked "you're coming tonight? Before 8??" Not exactly a warm welcome first impression. Upon arrival, where is check in anyway?? Dark, no sign as to check in location. Dark walk to the Inn. Dinner reservations made far in advance. Was stopped and questioned in an unfriendly manner as we walked to restaurant as to whether we had reservations like we were trespassing - said it was to "let the restaurant know we were coming" Got to restaurant - were asked if we had reservations. So all that gestapo business still didn't inform the restaurant we were walking over. Same attitude with home tour. Booked a specific date and time 10 days ahead. Then were told we "might not be able to go on the tour as the line had formed". What??? we milled around 10 min ahead of tour time. People walked up that day and then you want to boot us? No good instruction on tour process. (House tour should be included in an Inn stay). Point is - we felt talked to like kindergartens where the "processes" were concerned. These items are easily remedied with better training of staff in Client Services. Otherwise, a wonderful stay! Love the animals!

What a beautiful location and accomodations were extremely nice. Not too fond of the swarms of mosquitos but i grew up in Louisiana and they are to be expected. Staff was very helpful and the complimentary breakfast was awesome. The best creamy grits ive ever had!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

The garden and house are beautiful, although there are signs of neglect associated with the facilities. Stayed in unit 1A. The inside was very clean and nicely furnished. Issue is units 1A to 3A and 2A to 3A front river road and the traffic is very very loud during the day and night. Tried to get a room change but they had no units available. Couple other items; Requested a lift to dinner (service provided to pick you up at your room and take you to their restaurant) never showed up (they said he was busy). Although the food was very good, service at the Carriage House was poor (did not seem to care).
