Located at 6554 Highway 44 in Convent, Louisiana, the main house was built in 1867 on land that was the site of a 160-acre sugar cane plantation. Architecturally, it is a raised plantation house. Like so many others in the region, its design was influenced by the Victorian Renaissance Revival style while most plantation homes were influenced by the Green Revival style. Because it is located less than an hour from Baton Rouge to the west and New Orleans to the east, Poche is a convenient destination for visitors who plan to tour the antebellum mansions situated along Louisiana's River Road. Choose one of several family and romantic cottages or park your motor home in one of the 85 concrete shaded spaces. Poche is a home away from home with two full laundry facilities, mail service, church services, library, movie studio, private shower facilities, pool and jacuzzi facilities, recreation house, game room, TV room and food service. Tour the founder's office. Judge Felix Pierre Poche's four room, 1, 250-square-foot building is original and was built in 1830. For an overnight stay, my wife and I recommend Cottage No. 3 with a private front porch with rockers, fireplace, full double bed, three custom rugs with real wood plank flooring, Victorian antique bedroom set with matching marble night table and large two-door full beveled mirror armoire.

We walked in and immediately told limited menu and short staff only two people. They recommended roast beef burger. Which was great because that's what we're wanting anyway. ordered a roast beef dressed and a bacon cheeseburger, about 15 minutes later we were then told they didn't have any lettuce. At this point we just went with it because we had already been there a good 45 mins. ReceIved our food mine was as described roast beef without lettuce. It was hot which I liked and tasted pretty good. My poor husband on the other hand ended up with a bun, patty tomato and Mayo. Of course no lettuce but also no cheese are bacon. We didn't mention it as we were ready to be gone. They also didn't seem to even notice that they didn't put it. Our I've had our tea tasting freezer burnt as well. Our total was $27 I can't tell you if it was right our not because I was never handed the ticket just kinda showed it from a distance to which I saw the total. We were over the experience and wanted to leave so we pid tipped and left. I had such high expectations from everyone's reviews. :

I was ready to leave, but Mark persuaded me to stay and offered my stay for free due to Howard's inappropriate behavior. Unfortunately, Howard continued to make me uneasy, even after I explained my need for healing and the personal struggles I was facing—particularly the aftermath of a dysfunctional and abusive family, as well as serious health issues like brain cancer. I was genuinely looking for a safe space to focus on my recovery, but Howard's comments were distressing, and he even suggested that I harm myself. Following a painful incident that made me feel violated and hurt, I decided to leave. I highly recommend thoroughly researching and reading reviews before visiting any establishment. I cannot endorse this plantation or any of Mark's other locations. If my experience here was a nightmare, I shudder to think what other places might be like. The unprofessionalism I encountered was very concerning, and if you are a woman considering a visit, I advise caution regarding any offers of friendship, as they may quickly turn inappropriate.
