AN ENCHANTING SPOT OF NATURAL BLaUTY
(ISear Bay St. Louis, Mississippi)
Veiled by Spanish moss are giant live oaks, cypress, maple and gum, with towering pines hovering over dogwood, wild plum, mayhaw, and holly trees—Chinese, English and Southern holly.
Along shaded paths are countless varieties of camellias, innumerable rare species of azaleas, ardesia, mountain laurel, spiraea, gardenia, iris and fern . . . plants to delight the botanist and beauty to charm the artist and lover of nature.
“The Little Museum" bo his objects d'art collected in the Old World by the owner ...ancient glassware, old laces, carved ivories, tapestries, Sicilian pottery, ceramics and silver.
On the site of the mill where lumber was first cut by steam is the home of the James Lyman Crumps, a log cabin constructed entirely by native labor of 48-foot long cypress beams, a roof of hand-hewn cypress shingles, hand-forged ironwork and time-mellowed bricks.
Pine needles carpet walks along the river bank and through the woods where cherokee roses, wisteria and bright berries lend color in their seasons of bloom. On the sandy bluffs grow some of the largest holly trees along the coast. Split rail fences of cypress and smaller log cabins add a rustic note and in the Springtime the tranquil pool mirrors delicate color of azaleas.
To lovers of natural beauty and the peace of a woodland. Holly Bluff offers a unique charm in its unspoiled setting of semi-tropical flora and fauna.
Remains of an ancient grist mill now mark the flow of artesian waters from depth of 500 feet. The original stones and mechanism, over a century old, are still by the mill.
