A mansion north of U S 98, built in 1896 by William Henry Wesley, stands with white pillars amid oaks and Spanish moss. Wesley and his wife raised eight children here after the house became part of a sawmill complex, though today it stands alone.
A Florida state park guide hosts a house tour at Wesley Mansion near Tucker Bayou. The refurbished estate, once owned by Lois Maxon, sits on expansive grounds with the mill long gone, preserved to show 19th century life and fashion. Tours run hourly 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily except Wednesdays and Thursdays, four miles east of U.S. 331.
