FOR LOUISIANA LOVERS

The Enchanting Rip Van Winkle Gardens

$40.00

Quantity

Author Scott E. Raymond invites the reader to a place where magnificent gardens envelope the senses; where giant, friendly birds flaunt their wings with a rainbow of colors; and, where ancient trees reach to the sky, dripping with moss and sleepy shadows.

Travel through the Gardens with owner, Mike Richard, as he explains the history and significance of the spectacular displays of ornamental flowers, plants and bamboo, along with major attractions along the way, including: the serene Japanese Tea House and Garden; the exotic Balinese Gateway; the romantic Alhambra Garden and Wishing Well; and, the stately Joseph Jefferson Home – 19th century winter residence of the actor Joseph Jefferson, who famously portrayed Rip Van Winkle.

Other striking attractions to discover or revisit include: charming Café Jefferson and its delectable fare; the picturesque Bayless Reception Hall and Dining Terrace overlooking pristine Lake Peigneur where magical weddings and receptions occur; and, three delightful bed and breakfast cottages that invite the visitor for a memorable overnight stay.

Learn about the tragic 1980 salt mine catastrophe and how the Gardens were later transformed from an English garden to an eclectic garden design with broader and more breathtaking lake views.

All of this and much more...!
