    Barrow House Bed & Breakfast

    One of the benefits of being in a car club is that we find those less-travelled backroads that are…read moreonly found in small cities. On one of our excursions we found the Barrow House. We decided to stop by and look at the place. We really liked the place and made plans to come back. Fast forward about 5 wks after that initial finding and a small group of us are headed back out to the B&B. Some stayed at the Barrow House itself while me and a friend stayed across the street at Printer's House. We had a private bath and parlor. Also had a kitchen that was available to us. The Barrow House was the most comfortable and enjoyable bed and breakfast experience that I have had in recent years. The rooms are very large and clean. It has the cozy feeling of staying in someone's home but guests also have complete privacy. Shirley and Chris are wonderful and really know how to run a B&B (which isn't easy). St Francisville is one of the most charming cities in Louisiana. The Barrow House is a great asset to this unique city.

    The porch was a godsend and my friend and I had a wonderful time rocking away into the wee hours,…read morecatching up after years of not seeing each other. This was the perfect setting for a reunion! The breakfast was great and Ms. Shirley was generous with information about the place--she was a true delight, as was the location and the room (we were in the Victorian Room in the Printers House--and what a history it has!). The street was quiet and wonderful, and it's a great place to stroll into town from. Great time with great people--I can't wait to take my mom here, she'll love it!

    What an unforgettable experience.

Every walk across the property felt serene and timeless. What truly sets Greenwood apart is its rich history. You get to hear the stories of the past in every corner, by the owner herself. from the architecture to the surrounding landscape. It's a place that invites reflection and appreciation for the craftsmanship and legacy preserved there. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a photography lover, or simply looking for a quiet and beautiful place to unwind, Greenwood Plantation offers something special. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone seeking a unique, memorable, and deeply charming stay. One thing I didn't realize when I booked our stay was the bed and breakfast is a separate building area across the pond looking at the mansion. I booked thinking we would be actually in the mansion which was exciting but after reading the website again it clearly states this. One last thing I really enjoyed was the playing of the national anthem and the tribute to all the military branches played at 1800. God Bless America!

    This a beautiful plantation, the accommodations are very comfortable and clean. I suggest rooms 6…read morethrough 8 or 10 through 11 because they have a view of the mansion and also a rear balcony with a view of the horse barn and pasture. The breakfast provided each morning is delicious. So plan on partaking of it. I would also like to recognize the owners as they provided impeccable hospitality, and were so cordial during our visit.

    A visit to The Myrtles Plantation offers a unique blend of Southern history, architectural beauty,…read moreand just enough mystery to keep things interesting. The guided tour does a strong job of bringing the property's past to life. Set among towering oak trees and Spanish moss, the plantation itself is visually stunning, and the home's preserved interiors give an authentic glimpse into 18th- and 19th-century Louisiana life. Rainy Day our knowledgeable and engaging tour guide, was mixing well-documented history with the plantation's well-known ghost stories in a way that feels balanced rather than over-the-top. That said, expectations matter. If you're hoping for a purely historical deep dive, some of the supernatural elements may feel a bit dramatized. On the flip side, if you're looking for a full-on haunted experience, it's more subtle than theatrical. Overall, The Myrtles Plantation tour is a worthwhile stop for anyone traveling through Louisiana. It offers a memorable mix of culture, history, and atmosphere--especially for those who appreciate a good story along with their sightseeing.

    The grounds of this plantation are beautiful. It was overly touristy. But it was also spring break…read more I'd like to go back when it's not so busy and stay overnight to see what ghosts I can find. I did have a crazy experience with my K2 reader going off and no explanation to why. I wasn't around electrical, my phone was on airplane mode, and as soon as anyone else would touch the meter it stopped. We had coffee in their coffee shop. That place was popping!

The "continental" breakfast is a few stale croissants in a ziplock bag and expired orange juice. Turning to a highlight of an in house jacuzzi tub, don't expect the water to stay hot long enough to reach above the jets. Our tub button broke on first use. When mentioning to staff the front desk lady told us to figure it out with a broom. Also the older lady working in the front/main house should maybe rethink working in customer service.

    I booked the Cook's Cottage for a little getaway weekend retreat. I planned to relax, read, walk…read morethe grounds with my small dog, sleep in, enjoy the ambiance. I was VERY disappointed when I got inside the cottage. Friends who have stayed at Butler Greenwood told me the cottages are a little older and rustic, but the pictures online looked charming. None of them had stayed at the Cook's Cottage might I add. I wasn't expecting a pristine, modern accommodation, but this cottage was closer to disrepair than rustic. Everything needs an update/upgrade/thorough cleaning. The sofa/chair slip covers were worn, dirty, and covered with random material squares where they were ripped, two of the three lamps were broken at the top so the shades tipped over to the side, the entire cottage aside from the bathroom was carpeted in old blue office carpet with some throw rugs on top. There were various prints and blankets covering the wall, one I noticed was taped on the glass where it had cracked. Cobwebs and dust were visible on many of the old wall hangings, the fireplace tools, the top of the mantle. There were dead bugs under the bed, in a kitchen cabinet with some random large pans, the air conditioner unit was old and only got somewhat cool no matter how low I tried to set it. The mattress on the bed was hard and probably thirty years old, the pillows stained and of the caliber of what they use in hospitals, the bathroom faucet and toilet were worn down and chipped, the jacuzzi tub faucets had such low pressure I had to run the water for over an hour to fill it enough to run the jacuzzi. Everything looked and felt dirty. There's mold on the shower door, a blue metal trash can that looks like something from a 1980s grammar school cafeteria would have used, a ceiling fan that could only be run with all of the overhead lights on. I thought about leaving the first night, but the weather was bad and it was already dark. I did ask Ms. Ann Butler, the owner, if I could move to another cottage, but she said all were booked for the next day. I had the opportunity to go look inside the Dovecoat cottage before the renters arrived, and it was one hundred times nicer than the Cook's cottage. Much cleaner, more light, renovated, more updated furniture and flooring. I cannot believe she rents these two cottages for the some price (she rents any of them for $150 if only one bedroom is used). I felt like I had been tricked as my place felt like a cheap motel. An old, dirty, cheap motel while the others appeared significantly nicer, more comfortable, up to date, etc. I spent Saturday walking the grounds, tried to swim (the pool was dirty and had mold on the stairs leading in), and enjoyed sitting on the back deck reading and looking at the lovely pond view. The grounds are lovely. As long as I was outside my cottage, everything was charming, pleasant, and nice enough. I chose to make the best of it for the day and then packed my things and drove home at sunset as spending another night in that cottage was not an option. I thought about talking with the owner about it, but I cannot imagine I am the first to complain about this cottage, and I could tell by her response when I asked about moving cottages she was not concerned about customer satisfaction. I am so disappointed and felt really swindled by the misleading website pictures. I am sharing some of my own so no one else makes the same unfortunate choice. From what I'm told, Chases's Cottage, the Pond House, the Tree house, and the Dovecoat (I can vouch for this one myself) are all lovely. The place is truly worth it if you can rent one of those cottages, but you would literally be better off staying at a 2 or 3 star hotel in the area than this cottage.
