 Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the main house sits on a flat area of a bluff surrounded by rolling wooded terrain with fantastic views of the river and the two bridges connecting Mississippi with Louisiana. The view from the observation point extends many miles up and down the river and over the flat lands of Louisiana. There are 19 acres of gardens that have been personally designed, created and developed by the owners since 1975. Guests roam a varied terrain of brick walks, boardwalks, gazebos and ponds with frequent views of the river and garden ornaments and statuary.
