The Haunting
Plantation Inn has a busy comment thread and one important correction. The published listing calls it a replica plantation house serving as a resort and golf course and says it is haunted by a young girl calling for her mother. Multiple comments describe sheet tugging, scratching and knocking, a small shadow that looked like a girl, nightmares, black silhouettes, and room-specific unease around rooms in the 100s.
The correction is that commenters dispute the implication of an actual slavery-era plantation house. One commenter claims the property had enslaved people; another replies that it was built in the mid-1960s. The safer wording is replica plantation-style resort, not historic plantation. Keep the haunting reports, but do not imply an antebellum building without proof.

What People Are Saying
Summary of visitor and community commentary
Guests repeatedly mention a little girl, a child crying, sheet tugging, nightmares, shadow figures, knocking, scratching, and uneasy rooms in the 100-range, especially rooms 102 and 107 in the comments. A few commenters say nothing happened and suggest imagination or setting may explain some reports.
The thread is also self-correcting: readers debate whether the plantation theme reflects real history or resort styling, which makes historical caution essential.
Dark History
Likely Resort-Era Construction
A commenter states the building dates to the mid-1960s, so the plantation styling should not be treated as antebellum without confirmation.
Sheet-Tugging Account
A guest described two nights of bedspread tugging and an uneasy feeling in the inn.
Room-Specific Reports Grow
Comments mention rooms in the 100s, child voices, shadows, nightmares, and crying heard by guests.
