We have been several times and always enjoy the views and the history. Would go again! It was free when we went so unsure if it costs now or not.

This is a beautiful old estate that sits up high on the mountainside. It has great trails for those looking to hike, horseback ride, or mountain bike.

The manor house is beautiful and the views from the expansive porches are incredible! The mountain crafts that are in the gift store are very nice and the hiking trails (some are old carriage paths) are scenic and fun. When in the area, we always make a stop here.
