The George Eastman House was owned by George Eastman, founder of the Kodak Company. It is a large, well designed mansion surrounded by attractive gardens.

Don't go... more

This is a Don't Miss when in Rochester. I am a big house fan (always like to check out the local mansions) and this was an education and eye opener. My husband is not such a house fan, but he loved it too. We took the guided tour first, and after that the guide spent time with us telling stories... more
