rip van winkle gardens印象

We spent one morning here taking the house tour and wandering around the property. The tour was full of history and the grounds front on a small lake and are well cared for. Its a very pretty site.
-
This place has it all - wonderful gardens,a great restaurant overlooking the lake (try the crab au gratin or the shrimp remoulade),and ,most important, quaint servants quarters for overnight visitors. Good value and a great place to get off the beaten track.

The grounds are beautiful and a comfortable walk around. We did not take the opportunity to eat at the restaurant, but it appeared to be a good stop. There are nice looking bed/breakfast cabins that are probably worth a try if they compare at all to the rest of the gardens. There is a gift shop that was nicely stocked - even had some Jones drinks (had never heard of them before). The home tour was worth the wait (1 tour per hour) and I was sorry that only the downstairs was available to tour. There were peacocks and really interesting garden decorations that were imported. A really nice 2-3 hour break from driving.

This is a beautiful and peaceful place to walk and eat. I highly recommend. The peacocks are beautiful.

The house and gardens are beautiful. The resturant over looks the lake. Spring is a good time to visit and enjoy the flowers. Have lunch at the cafe - open every day at noon.

I've been here several times. A nice spring day, takes you back in time. The flowers are all in bloom. The beautiful oak trees, having lunch in their café, just sets for a perfect day. The tour of the house is just lovely.

I was in AW of this place. I have never seen a humming bird before ( I live in the city) and as soon as I pulled up they were flying every where. The lady behind the counter was a sweetheart. A lot of history with the house and gardens. There is also a bed and breakfast there which I hope to stay there one day. If you visit New Iberia put this on your list to visit. There is also a restaurant there I heard the food was great but a little pricey.

We booked a night in the cooks quarters for a night on our way to New Orleans. We arrived on a Thursday right before five. We went to the gift shop/registration area. The gift shop was closing, but we were told the back door on our cottage was open and to make ourselves at home. We quickly unloaded our bags, and began exploring the gardens before dark. Around every corner, there was something to marvel at, from the sunset over the Lake, to the old bomb shelter. The next morning we took the tour of the main house, and found out the history of the island, which was so interesting, especially after spending the previous night exploring. This is a special place, well worth the trip.

This is a lovely place to visit. The gardens and the history of the area is truly amazing. The cafe is a fun place for lunch with great views of the lake. Give yourself a treat and visit.

Omigosh - just beautiful! The trees and the lakeside were lovely. I vaguely remember the Lake Peigneur salt mine accident, but out of such a disaster, the beauty of this place is amazing!
