The landscape includes breathtaking views, trails, an outdoor stage, large fire-pit, remembrance platform near magnolia tree, a creek, picnic areas, and a short drive away an antebellum slave cemetery.

Picnic tables around the campus have been used for impromptu discussions, breakout sessions, weddings and reunions.
