Built in 1847, Logtown Plantation is bordered by a flourishing pecan orchard, a working corn field and the essential Ouachita River that twin cities (Monroe/West Monroe) have relied upon since the first immigrants settled here in 1798. The 235 acres that make up Logtown Plantation were part of an enormous Spanish land grant to Jean Baptiste (Don Juan) Filhiol (1740-1821) in 1785.
