The Gardens & Grounds

Explore towering cypress trees, magnolias, oaks and hollies, birds, walking trails, garden streams and water features at The Walter Place in Holly Springs, Mississippi.

Life beyond the mansion

Towering cypress trees, grand magnolias and oaks, and hollies give the grounds their distinctive character. Listen for birds and follow the estate paths through cultivated gardens and wooded areas. Overnight guests have access to the gardens and trails throughout their stay; conflicting private events are not booked over a guest stay.

The Spring & Refurbished Pool

A spring was found on the property, with a pool beneath it that has since been refurbished. The old pool is ornamental and not for swimming; overnight guests have access to a separate swimming pool. Its precise age is still being documented. Garden images on this page depict other parts of the estate, not the spring or its pool.
