Welcome to Carter Plantation Nestled amid moss-laden live oaks, towering pines and graceful cypress trees, you’ll find a true sanctuary. Carter Plantation features southern charm, simple elegance and one of the best 18-hole public golf courses in Southern Louisiana. Located in Springfield, a short drive from Baton Rouge, Carter Plantation offers incredible natural beauty and dedicated vision, creating an oasis of unexpected grace and tranquility. Originally deeded as part of a Spanish land grant, Carter Plantation has been through many transitions during the course of its history. Today, history continues to be made as the property is transformed into a community we’d like you to consider your home, whether you’re visiting with us as a resort guest or living with us as a neighbor.
