The Plantation House is located about 40 minutes outside of Austin Texas and is a great alternative to the Austin hotels. Stay in luxury while visiting the the Austin Aquarium or Zilker Metropolitan Park and Botanical Garden. The 5 acre bed and breakfast is such a great getaway! Many Texans and non-Texans love to get away from the country and visit our bed and breakfast. You will enjoy proper southern hospitality and one of the best breakfasts you will ever have. You can sit and relax on the front porch or take a stroll around the estate.

This property is an absolute Gem. It is beautiful, well maintained and decorated, relaxing and tranquil. It is meticulously clean and MUCH MORE than you would expect from a Bed & Breakfast. We went there with our 2 kids for a Staycation. The owners are super friendly and welcoming. In fact, in a global environment where hospitality establishments, big and small, are cutting costs and offerings, this place provides the comforts and conveniences that once were a staple of Luxury Hotels.
In my opinion, places like The Ritz Carlton have nothing over this place when it comes to service, specially when it comes to friendliness and welcoming atmosphere. My only regret is, I wished we had stayed longer but there is always next time. Highly recommend, thank you for a great overall experience, one that is becoming increasingly rare.

We had such a wonderful stay at the Plantation House. The property is so beautiful and our room was gorgeous and cozy! Luey and Norris were so friendly and hospitable. The breakfast was delicious every day and we had a great mix of going in to the city to explore and also just staying in to rest and recuperate. Perfect get away!

Our stay was absolutely fabulous! Everything about the property is welcoming. The breakfast was top notch. The penthouse loft has so much character and space. This is the perfect getaway for peace and quiet and is still close enough to town if you want to enjoy some night life or great food. Charming owners. This place is a true Texas treasure! We can't wait to go back.

I cannot adequately express what a wonderful experience this is. The hospitality is unmatched! You will be loved well here. Luey and her husband have the most amazing ability to make you feel like part of their own family. The grounds are gorgeous! The rooms are cozy. The swings on the porch are really the best place to take a nap during the day. And Luey's Red Velvet cake is like something I've never tasted in my life! We brought our baby with us, and he explored the house as if it was our home. It's a beautiful place! Take a few days to unwind and retreat at this one of a kind hidden gem.

We couldn't have found a better place to stay. The Plantation House is gorgeous. The rooms are comfortable and have everything you need to make you feel right at home. The hosts, Luey and Norris are extremely welcoming. Luey makes a delicious breakfast every morning and her homemade cookies are the best. The location was great. We explored Austin, Gruene, and San Antonio. Luey and Norris had great recommendations for activities for us to do and places to explore. They really made our trip! If you have plans to visit Austin or the surrounding area you need to stay here.

Hands down the nicest hotel I've ever stayed in. It's a beautiful property and the amenities are great. The plantation house feels like a home away from. The hosts Luey and Norris are kind and very hospitable. They offer nice toiletries and make breakfast in the morning. My husband and I stayed in the owners suite, which had a very comfortable bed and beautiful bathroom and balcony, we can't wait to come back! Grateful for Luey and Norris for sharing their home with us.

My husband and I stayed two nights here for our 51st wedding anniversary. We're so glad we found this gorgeous, spectacular gem of a B&B. The property, the accommodations, the amenities, the decor, the delicious breakfast and how personable Luey and Norris were just topped off our getaway. Everything is first class! They even did something special for us for our anniversary, which we appreciated very much! It's the perfect location, away from the city, but close enough to shopping and restaurants. We are definitely coming back. We absolutely LOVE this place.

I could sit here and write for days about how wonderful our stay was at the Plantation House. We went for our anniversary and couldn't be happier with our choice to stay there! Luey and Norris are the kindest people. They made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. We stayed in the "Owners Suite" and loved everything about the room. The house and grounds are gorgeous! Luey's breakfasts were outstanding.
She made us the best omelette we've ever had. Her cookies and banana bread were so delicious too. The house also smells divine.as soon as you walk in you smell the amazing signature scent. Simply fabulous. We miss our new friends in Texas and can't wait till we visit again : Thank you so much for an incredible stay! Sandy & Jose

We were lucky enough to stay at the Plantation House this weekend. It was the best decision we have ever made! The location of the Inn is central, yet perfectly secluded. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful. The house is exquisite, clean, and full of charm. Staying at a hotel can often be a cold and uncomfortable experience, but staying at the Plantation House felt like a second home!
We stayed in the giant "Penthouse Loft". It was private, cozy, and full of character. They even have their own lotion, body wash, and toiletries that smell divine. The best part of our stay was Luey and Norris. They are the most gracious and welcoming hosts. Shout out to Luey for making the most delicious french toast we've ever had! She also made amazing cookies and banana bread. We cant wait to come back and try all of her other tasty treats. If you are traveling to the Austin area, please stay here! You will not regret it!

WOW.this is a world class gem! I stayed here for a couple of days and this B&B is absolutely world class on every level. Easy to find, make reservations, spotless and so clean, great Inn keepers and world class 5 star customer service. Not many places feel like home and give you a true chance to relax and unwind. This is a must stay! I will absolutely be back!

The owner couple were super nice. Luanna makes the best breakfast. She was so kind and allowed we have a sleepover birthday party for my kid. All the kids were so happy with playing in the pool. They have home made soap in each room, smell so good. The room was clean and also smell good. We had good time at Plantation bed and breakfast. Enjoyed snack time, home made sweets. Plenty of coffee, teas, hot coco.

This was an amazing B&B. My husband surprised me - celebrating 500 months of marriage. We had an exceptional stay at the Plantation House. We loved the delicious home baked fresh cookies and the delicious banana cake. Luey & Norris are wonderful host. We enjoyed the beautiful room very much. This is the best bed and breakfast we have ever stayed in.
From the time you enter in the large iron gates to be greeted by the host at the front door. We enjoyed some relaxing time on the balcony and the back porch. Homemade breakfast, out of this world. We highly recommend this place for your stay. Top notch bed and breakfast.

Absolutely gorgeous B&B. There is an exceptional attention to detail and Luey went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. The rooms are immaculate and look straight out of a magazine. Breakfast was amazing featuring fresh fruits German pancakes and delicious omelettes. We will definitely be returning.

We had an exceptional stay at the Plantation House. Just minutes away from Austin, this serenity place is near anything but away from everything. Luanna and Noris has put a lot of thought into all of the details in the room and the guest experience. Our stay here was exceptional. We stayed at the Harper Suite which was perfect for our family of 3 people.
The suite is a two-room combination with Jack and Jill bath. It is so beautiful and extremely clean. Delicious home baked fresh cookies and bottle water welcomed guests upon arrival. My 11 years old son loved checking out the frogs at the ponds, watching the horses in the pasture. And most at all, he said he had the most delicious banana bread and breakfast ever. Top notch bed and breakfast. Highly recommend.

BED AND BREAKFAST: We did a 2 nights staycation here and it was AMAZING. The property is so pretty and relaxing. It was everything we were looking for. We essentially stayed in and did not leave the property at all. We got food delivered from broth and basil. Property: Located in Pflugerville. There's Target/ Costco and a lot of restaurants less than 10 minute.
Even though it is close to all that stuff, it feels very private and secluded. You can't even see the house from the road. There's a gate out front that signal the entrance that lead to a long driveway. It's like you transported into a different time/ location. Master's Suit : I love this room. It was so pretty. We got this amazing bed, love seat, balcony and bath tub.
I took full advantage of the room amenities. They also have roku in the room. We binge watch so many movies. Food : Luey made us some amazing breakfasts. We cleaned our plate and would have licked it if it was socially acceptable. She also baked banana cake and cookies for guests that you can grab yourself. I had wayyyy too much banana cake and cookies. They were amazing.

This place was amazing! We were met at the door by the most special, friendly lady, given a tour and shown our incredible room! This was our 24th anniversary and she made it so special! Bed was so comfortable, House is beautiful and breakfast was tasty and delicious. Would totally stay here again and HIGHLY recommend it!

My husband found this beautiful place by accident. The beds are so comfortable & cozy. My kids & husband made themselves at home. After the wedding they had the munchies & helped themselves to popcorn, cookies & coffee. They were like little kids. Breakfast was amazing! I could go on & on about this place. We would for sure stay there again

We stayed here for a week in June visiting relatives and quite honestly could not have made a better choice of accommodations. Innkeeper Luanna simply oozes Southern charm and hospitality. She is breakfast maker extraordinaire and the consummate hostess. She and husband Norris are like good friends you never knew you had. We were able to host two pool parties for our local family members who were all made to feel as welcome as we were.
If you are lucky, as we were, you may have an opportunity to see the resident bobcat family cavorting in the backyard. We have stayed at many B&Bs all over the world and Plantation House ranks up there with the very best. I cannot imagine any reasonable traveler being disappointed with a stay at this fabulous lodging.

Blown away with how amazing this place was as a bed and breakfast. The house is breathtaking, the people who run it are incredible, and the breakfast they made was one of the best I've ever had at a B&B. Oh, and the cookies.haha. AMAZING. The other thing was that the price was insanely cheap for what I felt i got from it. Loved it, and if/when I go back to Austin, I will absolutely stay there.

Sadly, the Plantation House is no longer a wedding venue. I contacted them and I was told they are now only a B&B and choose not to host events. But it is a beautiful property and the person I spoke with was very nice. I am hoping someone will realize the need for a nice wedding venue in Plfugerville and open something soon.

This review is long overdue, this place and the family who run it are nothing short of incredible. I've known Joanna (the coordinator and owner) for years and she is a wonderful person. I've seen her family host beautiful events and when it came time for my own wedding there was no contest, this was the place I wanted it. Joanna walks you through every step of the process, she also sets up all the decor the day of so there is no stress for the bride.
Very reasonable priced for the venue, all of our guests (especially the family from up north) said this is exactly what picturesque TX was in their minds. Stunning photo opportunities, which means you can actually save money on your decorations and just use the beautiful backdrop of the place. Genuinely wonderful family who loves what they do and it shows in the experience!

I'm surprised no one has reviewed this from a guest perspective, allow me to begin. In a nutshell, its beautiful but not functional. For starters take your expected guest number and divide by 2. Now you have your guest to bathroom ratio. Yes. 2 toilets for guests to fight over as they attempt to contain themselves after hours of food and booze. NOT NEARLY ENOUGH TOILETS! Next, they do not answer the phone.
I called after my husband and I had trouble locating it ( there is a google map glitch which doesn't show the driveway) only to hear a voicemail that pretty much says "we're too busy to answer the phone". They could at the very least have prerecorded directions available, but they don't, so good luck to all who use google maps. Also, the entire wedding and reception takes place outside.
The only time we were in the tent was to eat. Well this is Texas, so just know now that you and everyone at your wedding will be miserable from months April through September. And the dance "floor" is a cement walkway/porch area. Cement is not a dance floor friends! And my feet were eaten alive by ants due to all the outdoor activities. In summary, I think this place is beautiful and has so much potential to be a great venue but, as is, it's lacking.

My husband and I had our wedding at Plantation House about a week ago and we could not be more thrilled with how everything turned out. Joanna and Amanda have been an absolute pleasure to work with for the past year, always happy to help with random questions and issues that came up during the planning process. They really take pride in ensuring everything is perfect and runs smoothly for the couples getting married there. And on top of everything, the venue is beautifully maintained. If you are looking for the best, then Plantation House is the venue for you!

My fiance fell in love with this venue online. She looked into the venue's preferred florist/decorator (Luanna Clara Design) that the Plantation House has on their web page, she looked over her blog website then followed Luanna on Instagram and just loved her! (My babe always has good instincts about people!) She said that she just had to have Joanna's venue and Luanna's help.
She got her way. She called Joanna one day and received a phone call back the following day. Our emails are always promptly responded to even when we think they'd be asleep! We booked the venue without visiting it first (we live 6 1/2 hours away), but we do not regret doing so. The home, landscaping, gazebo, reception hall are much more beautiful in person. Joanna and Luanna have really made my bride feel like she should feel during this planning time.
Our wedding in April will certainly be amazing thanks to the incredible attention they have showed her since the beginning. I intend on writing a post wedding review as well. I just had to share how thankful I am for their consistent helpfulness.

The Plantation House is probably my favorite wedding venue in Austin. Not only is the house beautiful, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing, every event is organized with precision from a facility standpoint. The family that owns the house does a great job running the show while leaving room for third-party planners and vendors to do their thing.
There are various options for where you can have your event on the premises. There are a couple of smaller rooms inside, plus some beautiful spots outside to cater to larger groups. Probably my favorite thing about the PH are the reception tents. They have a couple of different sizes, and when it's cold, there are heaters to make you feel like you're inside.
They have it down to a science, so if there's an event at the PH, it's going to be good. I highly recommend hosting your event or wedding at the PH. It's run by a great family that truly cares about people and making sure your event goes off without a hitch.

We drove from Houston to Austin to visit this venue after trying to schedule an appointment for days (no answer on phones). When we arrived, we were disappointed to see it closed and when we dialed the number on the keypad to try to contact the office, they said they were closed and that we had to schedule an appointment in advance. The curb appeal is lackluster. Right next door to a trailer park. We will definitely cross this off our list.

I loved this venue. I loved the owners. The curb appeal of this venue is beautiful - featuring a lovely water feature and a large white house with elegant columns. The outside venue areas are well kept and perfect for an elegant wedding - complete with professional landscaping, tall trees, a gazebo, and crystal chandeliers. The reception room is all glass walls, which can be opened up.
And the ceiling is draped with sheer fabric and soft lights. To top it off, the owner is so sweet and helpful. I could tell she loves her job and takes pride in her work. I would be totally comfortable with her taking charge of our wedding. : While the price was a little high for our budget, for most, this may work fine. But I do truly appreciate that the venue offers a lower price to weddings of 50 or less. Thank you for that! This venue is beautiful.
