This enormous 53,000 square foot mansion, completed in 1859, reflects an unusual combination. Greek revival architectural elements blend with innovations that were the fanciful desires of the original owner. Not only is the floor plan irregular, but the house contained many elements that were innovative and rare in the mid-19th century, such as indoor plumbing and hot and cold running water. Today Nottoway is open daily to the public. Take a guided tour, stay overnight, have dinner, perhaps even get married in this magnificent plantation!

Nowhere else in the South will you find such a spectacular setting! The 1/4 mile canopy of giant live oak trees, believed to be nearly 300 years old, forms an impressive avenue leading to the classic Greek-revival style antebellum home. Built in 1839 by a wealthy French Creole sugar planter from New Orleans, Oak Alley Plantation offers daily tours, a restaurant that features a Creole-Cajun menu, a café/ice cream parlour, an impressive gift shop, bed & breakfast in century old cottages and a memorable setting for weddings, parties and other private functions.
