The Beaver Dam Plantation, also known as the William Cannon Houston House, is a historic mansion on a Southern plantation in Woodbury, Tennessee, USA.
A log building was first built c. 1810. The plantation was acquired and expanded by politician William C. Houston in 1873. Houston built the mansion in the early 1870s. His son, Frank K. Houston, later Chairman of Chemical Bank , was born on the plantation. A formal dining-room was added circa 1880, and a rear porch circa 1930. The home is well known in rock hunting circles for its spectacular geode pillars. They were constructed with the help of farmhands, by the six brothers of the family. They were built as an anniversary present for Judge Houston and his wife Lizzie Minor McLemore Houston.
