The “Crown Jewel of Louisiana's River Road” awaits your arrival. Houmas House once again shines & reflects its history as once the largest sugarcane plantation in America and its owners amongst the wealthiest in the South. Extensive renovations have recently returned the Mansion to the period reflecting the Great Sugar Empire of the 1800s. The Mansion, begun in 1805, & completed by Wade Hampton II in 1829, along with the original plantation house built in the 1770s, rests among great oaks, some dating back 500 years. Come stroll through 12 acres of breathtaking gardens & enjoy the waterlily pond, fountains, sculptures, bridges and dual garçonnieres.
