Greatly enjoyed staying at the Destrehan Plantation. As a history major, this place hit home with past history of pain and suffering within a tranquil setting.

After 5 nights near the french quarter, we decided to unwind for our last night. The corttage fit the bill. Nice and quiet, well stocked and almost like a mini adventure. The tour in the morning was informative. Great stop on our vacation!

The cottage was perfect for one or two people. I just stayed one night but it was all I needed. The tour of the house was amazing! Ann was the best tour guide. Nice to have a discount tour ticket with the cottage. Very lovely stay.

We loved the Margarite cabin on Destrahan Plantation. It is rustic, but very comfortable and the setting is fabulous. We spent hours on the tour and exploring all of the buildings that have been preserved as part of this historic site.

The site was very nice, and we had the opportunity to visit the outdoors museum and have a guide tour the next morning before leaving . The cabin was clean, cute, and very county- stile, but it was a pity that the furniture may not be moved, so we could not eat comfortably in the table. On the other hand, I recommend the property owners to update the pictures on the website or to paint the cabin's outsides to look better.
