Review:
Nacogdoches is a charming Southern town in East Texas, best known as the home of the Stephen F. Austin State University.
The town, which is a sister city to nearby Natchitoches is home to a population of nearly 33,000 residents, originally established as the Mission Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe de los Nacogdoches in 1716 and serving under nine different state and country flags throughout its history.
Today, the laid-back Southern town is home to one of East Texas' final family-owned plantations, the August Tubbe Plantation, and is the host of the annual Texas Blueberry Festival in June.
Visitors can explore attractions such as the 10-acre Mast Arboretum, the Millard's Crossing Historic Village living history museum, and the Old Stone Fort Museum, which recreates an important 1779 militia fort.
