Yes it was long, 2600 feet I believe. That was the hardest part of filming it by drone.

Just watched Antebellum, which was filmed here. Awesome film.

I’m reading a photography book by Clarence John Laughlin: ‘Ghosts along The Mississippi’. He photographed Louisiana’s past in extraordinary photos of old plantation homes. This one is featured in his book. It dates: 1830’s. Eryone should check it out from your local library.

There are government architectural drawings in a database of many of the homes. Here is Evergreen's documentation. www.loc.gov/pictures/collection/hh/item/la0338/

The beginning of the video rolling up the drive way looks like a scene from Django

Beautiful! I would have loved to have seen it as a working plantation back in its day. People seem to only focus on the slaves and their ill treatment. I am very fascinated by the entire working practice of the plantation. They were huge! They surly made fortunes both nationally and through exports. Too bad there isn't a TV series that focuses on it. We had 'Roots', it's time for the real working plantations to come to the big screen. It is absolutely fascinating. I believe the exports side of the business eventually led up to the Civil War, because NY demanded more money from import/export tariffs and warehouse storage. Not to mention the political side- State Representatives based upon population of a State, GDP, and the vast amount of money the Southern States had. If I had the money, I would make a TV Special Series of the real working plantations back in their prime time; all the way up to the Civil War. It should be from a political perspective, not from an abolitionist viewpoint- but from a Southerners'.
