Architecture fans will love the interiors and exteriors of this 1914 Mansion. From bronzed silver leaf ceilings to ornate door hardware, this building offers many pleasures. Built ins and furnishings fit like a glove. This is one of the best restored and maintained mansions that I have ever been in. It is a joy. Like antique kitchens? It is less... more

I enjoyed my visit but I wish I had booked a tour to really understand the history and details of the Mansion. The architecture is lovely. The plumbing is very interesting. There's marble and beautiful wood. The property also overlooks Portland from high up in the West Hills. The view is phenomenal and they keep the lawn beautifully. I look... more

This house was really beautiful. Often houses like this are ostentatious, but this one was not. It was nicely done, and the views inside and out were stellar. The grounds were very nice, as well. Wished we could have had a guided tour, but otherwise no complaints. Make sure you visit the gate house a little below and next to... more

Reminded us of seeing San... more

The mansion itself is absolutely breathtaking, we visited on an overcast, misty day and it added... more

Although not easily accessible by public transportation, this former home of newspaper publisher, Pittock is definitely worth visiting. It has a very special marble staircase, fine paintings by Thomas Hill and Worthington Whittredge, and fine views of verdant Portland from its windows. The grounds of the Pittock Mansion have superb floral displays. The staff of this mansion also taught me... more

Very interesting and informative. We had a guided tour--which was wonderful. I highly recommend taking the guided tour if it is being offered. This took approximately hour.. You learn so much about the family that lived here and the home. Also, if you want to pack a picnic lunch you can eat lunch on the grounds (i am pretty sure... more
