Jefferson Island Garden Cottage King Bed + Complimentary Garden Tour
Sleep on the grounds of Rip Van Winkle Gardens on Jefferson Island—not down the road. Cook’s Cottage (1925) is a private, wheelchair-accessible cottage inside the gardens on Lake Peigneur in New Iberia, Louisiana.
This stay includes a complimentary tour of the Joseph Jefferson mansion and garden admission, a stocked continental breakfast for two, and a bottle of wine. After the gardens close, you can walk the estate and watch sunset on the lake. Peacocks use the lawn. Café Jefferson and the gift shop are a short walk (confirm hours before you count on dinner).
The cottage
Built in 1925 for the cook who fed Jefferson Island Salt Mine crews working 1,300 feet below the island. Entire cottage, not a hotel room off-site.
Bedroom: handmade mahogany-style king four-poster, cotton sheets, down pillows
Living room: sofa plus air mattress (sleeps 3 total)
Only wheelchair-accessible cottage on the property
Kitchenette: mini fridge, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, dishes
Full bath with tub and shower, hair dryer, iron
TV, A/C and heat, shaded porch and patio
Starlink WiFi
Keyless smart lock / self check-in
Free parking on the grounds
Automatic standby generator on the property
Breakfast for two is stocked in the cottage: muffins and danishes, cereal, oatmeal, milk, orange juice, chips, soft drinks, Orange Island coffee (regular and decaf), and a bottle of wine.
