Dam House and Plants 

Beautiful views of Ice House Pond, which is formed by the Dam at the Dam House.  October 7, 2006

The Dam House provides endless beautiful sights.  Above is the view on a winter morning from the dining room cantilevered over the brook.  Sometimes the falls freeze in the winter
Plants love the River Room in the Dam House.  One favorite is the night-blooming cereus, which flowers 3 or 4 times each summer.  Typically, the huge white flowers open about 8:30pm and fill the house with a very strong, sweet, tropical fragrance.  By morning the scent is gone and the flowers are limp.
