This brook meanders its way to join the West Branch of the Ausable River, marking the inception of a waterway that eventually converges with the Hudson River, forming an enduring connection to a vast and storied water network. The property also holds a prestigious lineage, once owned by renowned golfer Craig Wood, winner of the 1941 Masters Invitational. Later, George Holley, inventor of the Holley Carburetor, took ownership. Holley enlisted his friend Thomas Edison to construct a hydro dam, serving as a testament to human ingenuity and providing a distinctive rare connection to the past.
