What travellers are saying
- Laura PJacksonville, IL3 contributionsWhat I really liked best, besides Chuck the tour guide, was that you actually got to go in the rooms. Most places only let you look in. Chuck also told us what happened to the members of Lotz’s family in the aftermath of the war.Written 17 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- David SAsheville, NC6 contributionsSheila was an amazing storyteller! She really brought alive the events. You can see so many bullet holes in the wood buildings and in the brick facings. Families were hiding in the basement while thousands were being killed outside. What a disastrous moment of our history!Written 13 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Tracy KLloydminster, Canada31 contributionsSpectacular property filled with history and sadness. Visiting Rippavilla would be a nice lead into this property, we did it the other way, but the pieces fell together. The house is beautiful, and I cannot imagine what transpired when it became a make shift hospital. The graves are evidence of what happened on that site, and it stops and makes you think. Definitely a site to visit if you enjoy history or just seeing a beautiful Tennessee property.Written 1 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Amanda WLinn, MO1,724 contributionsWow – what a pretty drive out from Nashville to check out this bridge. Made for some nice family photos – there are photo ops above and below. Would love to drive more of this parkway as I’m sure there is more to see than we did.Written 6 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Diane CRussiaville, IN93 contributionsSpent all day here. Stopped at the coffee trailer by the market. Drove several miles on the Natchez and hiked one of the stops. Came back and tasted at the leipers fork winery. Shopped then drove to the distillery. Good tour. Then had dinner at 1890. Great.Written 1 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Bill34950Vero Beach, FL275 contributionsThe entire experience was fantastic. We enjoyed the hayride thru the fields looking at the cows and older buildings. The corn maze and the mini golf was unexpected and very fun. The animals was another fun time seeing all the different types from goats and chickens to even the turkeys. The pumpkin patch was great priced and a good selection.
