About the Complex

Floral displays that reflect a natural look and harmonize with the surrounding woodlands fill this 31-acre country garden donated by Marie Aull, who was a local inspiration and advocate for conservation. This living work of art has been a peaceful retreat for visitors since 1977 when Mrs. Aull donated her garden and home to Five Rivers MetroParks. The unique home and beautiful gardens are now listed on the National Historic Registry.
