This morning we received our first load of furniture from Richmond.

We will have many more to come, but there is just something about the first one in the door!

Look and see what we have at the plantation now!

American Slant Top Desk or Plantation Desk. It looks just like the one Thomas Jefferson owned at Poplar Forest! If you want to stay in the same room this is going to be in, you will need to reserve the Conway Room.

  30. It is! I had someone there for a meeting at the time of the arrival and it took everything I had not to cut it short so I could run back to the rooms to see!

  31. gruundehn Says:

    Nice furniture. Looks period, but I am not an expert on furniture of that era.
    Big table? Yeah, but how often are you going to invite the whole neighborhood to dinner? I hope you use something else for breakfast.

  32. Thank you! We are using some period pieces and some reproducations. But all that you see on this page is the real deal. Yes, it is a big table. But we hope to fill it often.
