Welcome to the Farm...
The beauty of rolling hills and a winding country road along stone
fences lead to an antebellum gem. Leave your worries behind and
follow your heart to a very special place in the country located 11
miles east of Lebanon, Tennessee. From the moment you walk
onto the impressive veranda, you will feel the gracious southern
hospitality. Whether your visit is for a restful Bed & Breakfast
stay or a group of friends experiencing a luncheon get-together
and shopping or craft event, a memory is being made in this
tranquil setting. Hear the roosters crowing or
watch the guineas
run for bugs, you will be amused and a smile will come across your
face. Come experience pure joy in the country life at Watermelon
Moon Farm!
Wm. Washington Seay House
Listed on the National Historic Register
The historic homestead built between 1835-1845
offers the ambiance of an earlier time. Remarkable
stone masonry are displayed in the gigantic
chimneys, porch steps and foundation. Original
faux-grain painting is also evident on much of the
upstairs windows and doors. This too displays
artistic craftsmanship of a bygone era. This grand
house was built as an exact replica of a Louisiana
plantation home visited and admired by Seay on
visits to New Orleans. Frequent trips were made
to that area by riverboat to sell the tobacco grown
on the plantation. Artifacts found under the home's
Summer Kitchen possibly reflect those visits to
that area - whale rib-bone and harpoon.
