The historic site's stately trees, rolling hills, and picturesque views from the house and gardens situated on the highest bluff above the river all combine to create the natural landscape garden that Morse found so appealing. Morse was strongly influenced by romantic 19th century landscape garden design. At Locust Grove he found many essential elements already put in place by nature and added his artist's touch to frame views, create vistas and provide comfortable settings in which to relax and enjoy the beauty of the landscape.
