This beautiful plantation was built between 1856 and 1860
and is still owned by the Robertson descendants.
Greek revival mansion contains 22 rooms
This home has two stranger rooms, this is a cool concept, they room only opens out to the porch.
This offered respite for the weary travelers on the Chisholm Trail. Allowing the family to remain undisturbed by a visitor.
