Hillside Rock Garden, a woodland area which has five terraces, leading to the large swimming pool that was blasted out of solid granite.
The Sunken Garden was located below the Blue Bonnet Tea Room. It has a trickling waterfall leading to a matching set of collecting pools that channel water beyond the Wishing Well to an octagon reflection pool. This pool was once a wisteria covered octagonal arbor situated over a large pool. This pool sits atop Little Stone Mountain.
The Japanese Garden has a Gazebo. Water travels through collection pools cascading down to the Twin Pools. These Twin Pools feature a "floating stone" in the middle. Koi fish enjoy these pools. This Japanese Garden area was also said to have had numerous Umbrella trees during its day. There was also an area described as "Little Italy" that is remembered for its beautiful stone paths and steps.
Hanging Garden is an area where rock hangs over a dripping waterfall surrounded by two curved stone staircases. This is a perennial garden and lies adjacent to the upper Amphitheater and above the old Shangri-la site. |
