Attractions Rippavilla plantation The historic Rippavilla Plantation in Spring Hill, which was completed in 1855 by Nathaniel Cheairs, is one of the largest antebellum homes in the state. This treasured landmark offers visitors a glimpse of life in the 19th-century South.

In its heyday, the 1,100-

acre plantation raised wheat, corn, hay, cotton, tobacco, cattle, sheep and mules. The mansion features Greek Revival architecture, and 70 percent of the furnishings are original Cheairs family pieces. A museum room houses a collection of Civil War artifacts.

About 75 slaves worked the plantation, and one of the original slave cabins still stands on the property.

Special black history tours in February each year are well attended, says Executive Director Pam Perdue, and information about the slaves at Rippavilla is an important

part of the overall interpretation of life here.

Visitors also come to get lost in Rippavilla’s famous corn maze. The fall fundraiser draws about 20,000 people each year and also features concessions, stargazing, movies and a haunted house.
