Brown-Pursey House and Cunningham Garden
The Cunningham Garden, located in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, is a four acre arboretum which houses the Garden Club of Kentucky. It is located behind the historic Brown-Pursey house, a red brick period home which was built by John Y. Hill in 1825. General Custer once slept here.
The grounds are quite lovely. Visitors will see magnolias, beautiful flowers, and a wisteria-covered pergola. Be sure to visit the house and see the period furniture inside.
The garden is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Admission is free.

Is there a little sign that says "Custer slept here?"
ReplyDeleteAnd I see photos are working again for you!
No little sign. Just information I picked up when I researched the house. Photos aren't working, but I was able to cut and paste this one.
DeleteLovely. Do they offer mint juleps while strolling the grounds?
ReplyDeleteThat would be nice, wouldn't it?
DeleteEvery time I see one of your posts, it makes me want a bigger backyard. I bet it smells wonderful here.
ReplyDeleteBig backyards are nice, but they're also a lot of work!
