What to Wear
We suggest that guests wear comfortable shoes. High heels are not recommended as the property is quite expansive. In the summer months our climate is very warm. We do suggest cool, comfortable clothes. Our winters are mild, but occasionally it does get cold so please be prepared.
We do not recommend using rideshare services to get to Houmas House from surrounding metropolitan cities. This is a rural area and you will not have a ride back.
