The manicured grounds surrounding the home provide gratifying views of the river and the larger-than-life trees. Both the east and west sides of the property feature pecan orchards with certain areas that are irrigated keeping the crop of choice well-watered year-round. A small portion of the eastern pasture has a garden enclosed by an electric fence to keep wildlife out (currently left fallow). The acreage along the river provides a dense riparian habitat with occasional palmettos and sycamore trees.
