There is something magical about the Madewood and having the opportunity to explore the whole house. The elegance of dinner, after dinner coffee and brandy and breakfast the next morning was perfect. My husband who is not fond of veggies actually ate his yams. I wish we had more time to explore beyond the garden but we will be back.... More

I have a fond regard for Madewood as a place where I can completely relax and feel at home. I applaud the efforts to restore and preserve a heritage property, and the results here are superb. Rooms are gorgeous, meals are festive, and the owner Keith and "Cleo" personally extend gracious hospitality. This differs from a hotel and feels more... More

I recently spent two nights at Madewood Plantation, and I could not have been more pleased. From the time I arrived...back door open, so I just snooped...this was the trip I needed to make! The house was lovely (old, yes, so ENJOY that) and the company was great. Angie was a dream...from reservations to dinner to breakfast to pear jam!... More

What a delightful, memorable evening this was, with spirited banter back and forth over coffee and brandy in the parlor. Great conversation and new friends, though Madewood and I both remain to the left of the bayou. This is how life has been at Madewood for almost 170 years, always stimulating. We look forward to more of the same. Keith... More

Our stay March 2013 was very pleasant. Keith and his staff are so very kind and hospitable. We felt comfortable both with the accomodations and service. We had the room with the large dressing room bathroom. We excitedly called home to tell our sister that we walked on antique rugs and sat on antique chairs. Our bed was the most... More

The plantation is very beautiful, though unfortunately very close from the main road, with a constant background noise of cars. The person welcoming the guests is efficient, but quite cold. The diner is very good (taken on a big table with the other guests) the breakfast is so so. The rooms are large and comfortable. Of course, one needs to... More

We are pleased that these European guests enjoyed their plantation experience at Madewood. Persons who are sensitive to noise may wish to choose one of our lovely rooms at the rear of the mansion or in the Charlet House, which surround the rear patio. The road in front of Madewood is a secondary road, so there is minimal traffic. This... More

We had a terrific stay at Madewood from beginning to end. For starters, the place is extraordinarily beautiful and atmospheric. High ceilinged rooms, very large, with beautiful furnishings. The common areas downstairs are majestic but warm and inviting. Our bedroom had lovely furnishings, a very comfortable bed, and a large adjoining bathroom/dressing room. We had views from the windows and... More

Madewood is gorgeous. It was a very peaceful place to sit and read. However, the house smelled very musty and the window unit for heat & air seemed to just blow the musty air around but never heated it much. I was cold all night. We stayed in the Mystery Woman room. The beds were beautiful but not comfy.

We remember with pleasure the visit of these guests and are delighted that they found Madewood gorgeous. We are concerned that they were not comfortable in their room. The heating and air conditioning was checked, along with all units in the house, just before Christmas. Sometimes guests do not notice the Energy Saver button; that may be why they found... More

We stayed here for one night while out touring some plantations. Angie was so friendly and her cooking was outstanding. We loved both the dinner experience and the breakfast. The dining room is beautiful and it feels like you are transported back in time. My only complaint would be wishing that the temperature in the house was quite chilly -... More

This past February 28th, I celebrated my birthday one evening early as we sat at the 15+ foot long mahogany dining table and dined on four lovely courses while chatting with Mr. Marshall, the owner. It was definitely a special birthday! Everything about Madewood is special and, most important, authentic. You don't just stay, you get to live a peek... More

We stayed here for one night on the way to New Orleans with another couple. The house is beautiful, huge rooms, sweeping staircase and filled with original furniture and antiques. We were the only guests so it felt very luxurious having the house to ourselves. We had Mrs Marshall's bedroom which had the highest bed I have ever seen, felt... More
