Thank you for being a part of the 2024 season! The mansion is now closed to visitors. We will open our doors once again in the spring. Join us in the Carriage Barn over the holiday season for wreath-making, caroling, cookie decorating, crafts, and a visit from Santa—our events page offer details. Stay-tuned for the latest news and plans for the upcoming season, and do not hesitate to contact us with inquiries, suggestions, and questions in the meantime.
Historic Significance
The house, a 35-room mansion built by skilled artisans over the course of 18 months, is a prime example of Second Empire design, and represents a specific period of architectural history in the United States. Influenced both by British opulence and natural patterns, architects, designers and artists in the Victorian era brought together many different themes with a special attention to detail.
Cultural Engagement
Our cultural programming happens in (almost) every season. On our grounds and in our structures, we host a classical music series, a summer croquet league, membership meetings, theater productions, readings, dinners, music camps, and other public events.
Weddings & Special Events
Green manicured lawns, radiant flowers and topiary, makes the house one of the most verdant places to hold your wedding or event. For weddings, this Victorian mansion is regarded among the most romantic places to tie the knot.
