  • This type of venue should be setup for weddings, it seems very appropriate and the little lake is a nice touch

  • What a magical place! Our dear friend was recently married here, and we were so pleasantly surprised by the location. The Acadian settlers created a settlement in the 1800s that is alive and well today. If you have ever been to Splash Mountain at Walt Disney World, this is clearly what it was based on. It’s a beautiful homage to a rich history and culture. I would highly recommend it.
  • Great visit! It was very interesting to see the French heritage and show to our kids how people lived in the 19th century. At the time of our visit (February 22) the village was almost empty, so we were able to take our time visiting each house. It's great to be able to see artifacts from up close and not from behind a rope or behind a glass. Admission is $10 for adults and $8 for children.
