Seven Oaks Plantation
"is an invitation"
to relax and enjoy a touch of the past amid true
country elegance. This 10,000 square foot West Indies style
home overlooks Lake Pontchartrain, is convenient to the airport and is
only twenty minutes from the New Orleans French Quarter. |
|
World famous Architect A.
Hays Town designed the home
in the style of a 1795 early Louisiana
plantation built during the time of Spanish dominion. Architectural
materials used in construction were from the ruins of a Plantation
called Seven Oaks and other old buildings. The landscaped gardens
include a natural fish pond, a pigeonnaire, an herb garden and not only
native Louisiana trees and plants, but other exotic plants as well. |

The
private, beautifully appointed guest rooms
open onto a very large living
room with exposed beams, a fireplace, antiques, Audubon's and a piano.
From the living room, guests walk out onto twelve foot galleries where a
view of the lake can be enjoyed. |
|
Following early morning
coffee, a full Plantation Breakfast is served
and guests can view many
species of birds that inhabit the garden. The entire home can be
toured where guests enjoy Louisiana Antiques with furniture made by
Prudent Mallard and Signoret. Also on display is a collection of old New
Orleans Mardi Gras memorabilia including invitations, medals and favors. |

The Southern Hospitality of Seven Oaks will make your
visit a warm, pleasant memory. |
