Editor’s Note:  Worth the drive!  This one is a MUST SEE!

The entire garden is a little over half an acre, not including the residence and has been divided into several garden areas beginning with a potager garden in front of the house with hedges of thyme, rosemary, and lavender.  The back gardens include the main garden featuring rose arbors, a pergola, & a willow tree and has been the site of over twenty weddings of friends and family.  There is an arched rock bridge overlooking a small water garden and a pathway through the back yard leading to a cottage garden which includes a playhouse.   Across from the playhouse is a wrought iron gate leading to a secret garden with a fountain.  There is a sensory garden complete with a trampoline and magnetic beach sand.  The rock swimming pool stairs branch off to a pathway across the back slope and a woodland garden.  A bench on the slope overlooks a cutting garden which features an arbor covered with morning glory over a planted birdbath.  There is a small fairy garden under the willow tree which is often missed on a walk through.  There are many butterfly host plants and nesting bluebird houses.
