The J.I. Holcomb Garden House, located amid stately trees and adjoining the canal, was dedicated in 1952. For years, it was the site of wedding receptions. The house features a large meeting room and kitchenette and, in 1959, the Carillon Room was added to accommodate the Carillonneur and their instrument. James Holcomb served on Butler’s Board of Trustees from 1936-1961.
