But the store had a lot of gift shop items that I believe help maintain the house, buildings, grounds, and pay for staff. We did the tour of the big house and it was so educational. Then we went over to Miss Anne's talk and it was so educational and she interacted with all people in the group. I would like to come back with my family for them to see and listen to all of the history in the items and the stories of the owners and the enslaved. The visit was simply powerful for me to experience as I have family that were enslaved or born free to parents that were enslaved. And I have family that worked plantations in GA in the 1940s and 1950s picking cotton. So this visit really touched me.

The master bedroom has a king sized bed, the second bedroom has a queen bed and the third bedroom has a double bed. Each bedroom and the living room all have big screen tv's. Great front porch to sit and people watch. The back patio is wonderful and big. The neighbors thought we were the new owners and were stopping by and welcoming us to the area. I told Yelp several times that the place is not in my name, but they have not edited it as of yet. I was scheduled to stay there five days and I liked it so much, I asked to add the weekend as well, if they were open and they are! My two sons stayed with me the 7 days and my grandchildren stayed two nights. We all had a great time. I hated to leave. I most definitely will stay here from now on, when I visit my family. I highly recommend this place.

A little far from coast but we discovered several restaurants along the way that were wonderful. One tiny problem we had was when we first pulled in to park. We were told to take the first "right" to drive to our site. The first right turned out to be the pull out lane for the first row of RV's, not an actual street. We couldn't back the trailer that far so had to unhook our trailer there, unload car, pull trailer through an empty RV space with the car, then back the RV up. This was mostly our fault, but you might post that road as "not a thru street" or something. I think we gave the RV travelers sitting outside visiting quite a show and a laugh!

Don't forget to check out the massive gator seen in the video below who lives in ZZ's backyard.

I called the company and spoke with Nicole who had the worst attitude in the world. She advised me that even though it was their fault, they could not give her a discount of any sort or comp any portion of the service. She told me that I know the manager where your daughter works so I called to let her know it was our fault. She was absolutely rude and horrible. We Will never use this company again! And if you want to get to your destination on time, I advise that you don't use them either.

On prior trip to the area, Helene and I have had the opportunity to visit some old plantations and still find it fascinating... It's all about the history, not always good though. The Oak Alley home was originally a sugar plantation and of course, built by and relied on enslaved men, women and children to run efficently. That's always part of the history that I find most disturbing. You start out in the main house and the tour inside the mansion runs about a half hour. There is a a lot to see and absorb inside. They take you through all the rooms and showed us the different details for making each room unique. I have no photos inside the home as we were not allowed photographs. After going through the main house you could wandeer the grounds for while and view the slave quarters. Fascinating and still very disturbing. There is a restaurarant here as well as the gift shop [of course,] where you could also getting something refreshing to drink. Since it was close to 100 degrees, anything was good and welcomed. The grounds are just beautiful and packed with history. I would urge anyone who comes down to this area to do at least one of these tours, it's an incredible journey.
