Breston was a good host with lots of knowledge of his property and the surrounding activities. It was a pleasant surprise to find the public boat launch so nearby, including a great swimming hole and place to picnic. The property has a strong history and sits right along the river. There is a greenhouse and Breston sells his herbs to restaurants in the area (and to you too if you want them). The circle of magnolia trees in between the green house and the plantation home is my suggestion for where you put your tent.




We LOVED our stay here!! Thanks to Hipcamp, we found Breston's property, and adjusted our road trip course to experience camping at a historic Louisiana plantation. We are so happy that we did! Breston was an amazing host, and tour guide of this property that has been in his family for generations, and the plant nursery that he has been developing there. We had the great fortune to join Breston and his lovely father for a home cooked meal... a traditional Louisiana gumbo.
Our camping spot was private, and beautiful. It was a flat, grassy area that was farmed many years ago. Now surrounded in huge, beautiful trees. A river is a short walk away. We did hear trains pass several times through the night, along tracks that must be fairly nearby. They did not bother us, we were able to fall back asleep quickly. My husband even found them soothing.
Staying at this plantation provided us many wonderful memories, and will stand out as a top experience on our road trip from Florida to Alaska.
