About Wishing Trees

Immersed in nature, beauty, and tranquility.

The Name

Wishing Trees came from the abundance of trees in this area, including Flowering Dogwood, Black Walnut, Sycamore, Tulip Poplar, Beach, Cedar, Red Maple, Black Cherry, and more. These woodlands are natural sanctuaries, appreciated as a source of inspiration and beauty throughout the year.

The Neighborhood

Natchez Valley subdivision is comprised of 215 acres with only 19 built homes. The community is home to entrepreneurs, business leaders and one or two celebrity connections. Located at the intersection of the iconic Natchez Trace Double Arch Bridge and Trace View Ranch, electronic gates and guard house provide 24/7 security, privacy, and exclusivity. Homes here rarely trade ownership.

Woodlands and Wildlife

The Natchez Trace Parkway is the place to experience the beautiful outdoors. Out of the 52,000 acres of Trace, almost 39,000 are maintained in a “natural” condition. You’ll find bountiful forests, non-agricultural fields, and open water. The Natchez Trace is exceptional from a natural resources standpoint. Over its length, it crosses four ecosystem provinces, eight major watersheds, and twelve physiographic regions. Such conservation also protects its rich and diverse wildlife. From deer and blue herons to wild turkeys, and box turtles, they and their offspring are all regular visitors to Wishing Trees.

A Famous View

From Wishing Trees, you have a clear view of the elegant Natchez Trace Double Arch Bridge. It is an iconic part of the Natchez Trace Parkway, a scenic 444-mile route rich in 10,000 years of history and culture that winds through Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee. Constructed in 1994, the 1,572-foot-long bridge spans Birdsong Hollow and Tennessee Highway 96, approximately 155 feet above the valley. In 1995 it received the Presidential Award for Design Excellence for its innovative design. Today, people can enjoy a scenic drive, hiking, biking, horseback riding, and camping along the Parkway.

A Rive Runs Through It

Natchez Valley has a long, narrow ephemeral stream that originates from its many hills, and runs through the homes on the right side after periods of rain, or snow, and dries up completely when there is no precipitation. This shallow stream offers such powerful, natural beauty from the soothing bubbling sound caused by rainwater flowing over the rock bed.
