Jefferson Island’s unlikely tie to Rip Van Winkle Attractions include semi-tropical gardens, conference center

BY CHERÉ COEN

Special to The Advocate In the 19th century, American actor Joseph Jefferson, widely known for his role as Rip Van Winkle in the play he adapted from Washington Irving’s short story, fell in love with a tract of land called “Orange Island” near New Iberia, so named because it sits on top of a coastal salt dome forcing the land to protrude above the surrounding area.

Jefferson built his Victorian home in 1870 at the highest point of the property, providing a dramatic view of Lake Peigneur. Because of his fame as an actor, Jefferson hosted many notable people at the home, including President Grover Cleveland who liked to nap beneath an ancient live oak tree. The property was also thought to contain the treasure of pirate Jean Lafitte and a chest of silver and gold coins were found beneath twin live oak trees by the main house.

After Jefferson’s death, the property was sold to John Lyle Bayless of Kentucky who began to mine the salt beneath the ground. His son, John Bayless Jr., later developed the Rip Van Winkle Gardens, 15 acres of semi-tropical gardens, surrounding the mansion.

“Nothing in the gardens is original to the Jefferson family but some of the oak trees, which are hundreds of years old,” said Nick Delcambre, Jefferson Island marketing and communications manager. “Rip’s Oak by the café is more than 300 years old.”

Today, the property is open for tours, including the Joseph Jefferson Mansion, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, a gift shop and Acadian cottages for overnight stays. Café Jefferson serves lunch daily next to the gift shop, serving up Cajun and Creole dishes with a lovely view of the lake.

The Bayless Conference Center on the grounds accommodates 25 to 300 with a fully equipped kitchen, making it ideal for special events. With the lake at sunset and the elaborate gardens, Jefferson Island has become a popular wedding destination.

PHOTOS BY CHERE COEN

American actor Joseph Jefferson built his Victorian mansion in 1870 near New Iberia. The Rip Van Winkle Gardens on the property take their name from his stage role as Rip Van Winkle in a play adapted from Washington Irving’s short story.

“We’ve been voted on by several community organizations as the best wedding venue,” Delcambre said.

Tours of the mansion are offered at the top of the hour from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, which includes walk-throughs of the gardens at visitors’ leisure. Tickets are $12 adults, $10 for ages 66 and over and $6 for children.

The property also contains Rip’s Rookery, a bird sanctuary that’s home to egrets, spoonbills and other South Louisiana birds.

Jefferson Island was once the site of one of the strangest environmental disasters in Louisiana history. On Nov. 20, 1980, drilling at the top of the salt dome punctured the outer wall causing Lake Peigneur to pour into the dome. The disaster caused a 150-foot waterfall into the puncture site and the nearby Delcambre Canal to flow backwards before the lake literally disappeared. Jefferson Island lost 64 acres, greenhouses, barges and Some masonry at the Rip Van Winkle Gardens. the Bayless’ new home but amazingly no one was killed inside the mine.

Visitors to Jefferson Island can view during the disaster.

Use lighting to make your home stand out

Metro Media When addressing curb appeal, homeowners may be inclined to focus on what people see during the day, but after sunset some of those features aren’t as visible.

Outdoor lighting is often overlooked as a way to add curb appeal, advises the home improvement experts at The Spruce. Proper illumination gives a home a warm glow and beauty after the sun has set. Think of how cozy and inviting neighborhoods appear during the holiday season!

Lighting for evening hours also helps maintain a safe environment for people who are visiting the property. Illuminating walkways and doorways provides a clearly visible and safe path to and from the home.

Here are some ways to improve outdoor lighting.

• FOCUS ON ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES. Outdoor lighting can focus on the external features of the home’s architectural style. Use light to draw attention to in-

teresting gables, dramatic roof lines, dormers, or curved entryways.

• PLAY UP LANDSCAPING. Stylish lighting can highlight trees, shrubs, pathways, gardens, and all of the elements of softscapes and hardscapes on a property. The lighting experts at Vernon Daniel Associates say that soft lighting can make homes feel warm and cozy. Uplighting trees or other elements can add a dramatic effect.

• LIGHT UP ALL DOORS. Make sure that doors, both entry and garage, are properly lit for ease of entry and egress from the home. Safety.com, a home and personal security resource, says a home burglary occurs every 15 seconds in the United States. Installing motion-activated lights or lights on timers can deter break-ins. Consider using home automation to control outdoor lights remotely.

• CREATE ENTERTAINING AREAS. Outdoor lighting can be used to extend the hours residents can spend outside — a feature that can be an excellent selling point.

Play with the possibilities of lighting to give your home curb appeal after dark.

Notes from Bill

Bill LeBlanc

is president of the Acadian Home Builders Association.

His column appears weekly in Acadiana Homes.

Remodeling projects to reenergize your home Look at three key areas for high-impact changes Are the flowers in bloom and warmer weather inspiring you to tackle a few home improvement projects? Remodeling your home can pay off in personal enjoyment and comfort and improve the value of your home. A professional remodeler can provide guidance on home improvement projects that will increase your homes resell value.

As the home building and remodeling industry celebrates National Home Remodeling Month in May, many homeowners are taking steps to transform their current homes into a personal oasis. High-impact projects that can revamp your home include curb-appeal enhancements, kitchen renovations and bathroom improvements.

Improve your home’s exterior The color scheme of your home exterior and cleanliness of your yard makes a big impact on curb appeal. If needed, consider purchasing a new garage door to give your home a facelift. Your front door also makes an important first impression. A fresh color of paint, window trim or siding is a simple way to create an inviting look to your home exterior.

Landscape or clean your yard. Garden centers offer information and tips on plants that will thrive in our local climate. Some garden centers offer free design services.

A mixture of different colored plants and heights will enrich your yard. If your home walkway is cracked or dated, replace the path with new flagstones or outdoor lighting. Adding a fountain or water feature is another way to take your lawn to the next level.

Renovate your kitchen

A modern kitchen is not only a space for cooking. Kitchens are a central hub for home entertaining and sharing meals. A professional remodeler can make recommendations on finishes that will boost your home resell value. Your remodeler can also provide you with advice on what to consider when replacing countertops, creating custom cabinets, flooring and appliances.

For example, energy-efficient appliances are among the popular features home buyers seek out when considering purchasing a new home.

Not all kitchens need a complete overhaul. Replacing dated lighting fixtures, faucets or sinks makes a difference in design.

Other design upgrades such as new window treatments, cabinet hardware or a fresh coat of paint can spruce up your kitchen.

Bathroom improvements Cosmetic updates to a bathroom can be as simple as replacing dated fixtures and lighting. Freshen up your bathroom by re-grouting tile or removing and replacing caulk around the tub and sink. A white tub, sink and toilet is a popular color choice in bathrooms for home buyers, according to a recent National Association of Home Builders survey. Adding a fresh coat of paint, similar to your kitchen or home exterior, makes a difference in brightening up your bathroom. A professional remodeler can also add storage with cabinets or shelves.

Get the facts about timeshares before buying Metro Media Many people turn to timeshares as a way to enjoy annual vacations. But is investing in a timeshare a financially sound decision? That depends on who you ask.

Getting the facts about how timeshares work and learning a few tricks can help anyone make an educated decision about timeshares.

In a timeshare, individuals purchase a place to stay in vacation property.

They typically can then use this room and the surrounding amenities once per year, and often must travel to the same location time and again. Timeshares long have held appeal because they are marketed toward people who may not be able to buy a vacation home, but still want to vacation each year.

There are some advantages to timeshares. They provide a guaranteed vacation destination each year in a familiar place. This is great for people who value familiarity. Timeshares also make it possible to afford a vacation in an expensive resort. Sometimes a person can trade times or locations with

For those who have to skip a year, it may be possible to sublet the timeshare or let family and friends use it if the agreement allows.

Timeshares have some notable draw-

tion :00 c 3 u r t 0 s 0 Con ay 1: d n New e Su

backs as well. Cost-efficiency is one notable drawback of timeshares. The American Resort Development Association, a trade group for timeshare companies, offers that the average cost of a timeshare is around $20,000, with an annual maintenance fee of $660. Those

fees are paid even if the resort isn’t used that year. Chances are a person can get a comparable vacation elsewhere for a lower cost — especially with the abundance of vacation property rentals available from traditional hotels as well as sites such as Airbnb.

A timeshare is not like a traditional real estate investment. According to Investopedia, it is an illiquid asset that is likely to lose value over time. Those who decide to sell their timeshares often find they must do so at a deep discount. Furthermore, those who sell a timeshare at a loss may find the Internal Revenue Service doesn’t let them claim a capital loss, which is often the case with other investments and property.

To make timeshares work, individuals can opt to buy used, which is often at a fraction of the cost offered new by resort developers. Also, realize that a timeshare is a lifestyle purchase, not exactly a real estate investment. Timeshares are not a way to turn a profit. Try to purchase in desirable locations as well. Doing so increases the likelihood of resale in the future.
