Loved staying at the Barksdale House. Beautiful decor. Great little courtyard to enjoy a glass of wine or beer. I stayed in the carriage house. Large clean room, comfortable bed. On main floor a Keurig machine for your use. Wonderful helpful staff expecially Aleeyah! Highly recommend.

This is a historic home turned BnB so we are not expecting the same conditions as a new home or hotel, but the room had mismatched paint touch ups on the ceiling, the bathroom window trim had a different color than white, and the glass was dirty. These are not terrible, but easily fixable to improve the quality of the experience. Also, the landscaping could stand to have a little more TLC than it's getting.

The place has an excellent location. It is quiet. Staff is friendly, floor squeaks but it’s expected the carpet to the stairs at the back house could use a deep clean

We loved the charm of this inn. The breakfast was delicious and the staff was super friendly and helpful. We ended up walking everywhere and only used our car when we went to a plantation tour and to get back to the airport. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here.
