Took a while to get to this. We stayed here last jjune for 5 days. Visiting family and wanted some time to unwind. Great place , awesome food. We took the cypress package so my husband could golf. THIS IS A DAVID TOMS DESIGNED COURSE. got the parlour combined with the king veranda. tons of room. we even entertained company. Really enjoyed ourselves, not really alot to do if you do not golf. but I enjoyed reading and tooling around on the golf cart looking a things. No ammenties to speak of like fitness rooom etc. poool was located far away and was not heated, however it was very hot out so kids did not mind. I found the food was very good but pricey for that neck of the woods. If you want quiet time, golf and a decent meal this is a real find. Room was wonderful full kitchen high end beds etc. Would hightly recommend for a golf retreat if you like it very quiet with few people around. My husband loved it, played golf early. read ,had siesta, early dinner, sit on back porch have cigar go to bed early golf agian! You get the picture!
We thought it was a real find !!!!!

We only spent one night at the villas managed by Hawthorn Suites at the Carter Plantation, but it was a lovely facility. Actually the acreage is mostly made up of a beautiful golf course, with homesites for sale and some houses under construction. The clubhouse has a cute bar and restaurant where we were served a full breakfast which was included in our room rate of $107. Our room was part of Villa #5, we had a king bed and a huge bathroom. A bit of explanation should be listed at their website as it's confusing the way these rooms are set up. These villas each have about 7 or 8 rooms, and they share a common livingroom/diningroom/kitchen area. This is a perfect solution to families who would love to have a family reunion/vacation with lots of folks. The villas look like homes, with front and back porches, etc. Each room also has a mini frig and coffeemaker. We were in town for an event in Hammond, LA, and decided to stay here. Although it's a short drive to Hammond, we were very happy to have chosen this accomodation.
