THE MYRTLES
FEATURED EXCURSION
At first glimpse, the Myrtles, built in 1796, surrounds visitors with a sense of peace and tranquility. Shaded by centuries-old live oak trees, the mansion features a 125-foot verandah, exquisite ornamental ironwork, hand-painted stained glass, open-pierced frieze crown molding, Aubusson tapestry, a Baccarat crystal chandelier, Carrara marble mantels, and gold-leafed French furnishings. Only later does its reputation as one of America’ s most haunted homes begin to reveal itself.
