A wonderful historic site!

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 1/7/07

Shadows-on-the-Teche is a great place to visit. There are thousands of original documents spanning four generations of the same family who lived in the house. Our guide was friendly and knew her history. We felt free to ask questions and express opinions. We didn't feel like just another group of tourists. I absolutely recommend this site to others. It was a great learning experience and the cost wasn't that great. It's worth that and much more. The Shadows is definitely a don't miss on your trip to South Louisiana.
