A very peaceful and tranquil place that's great for spending the day, walking around the park, and having a picnic. The mansion tour was excellent, worth the $10 per person (or free if you have the annual pass). The guide was very clear, understandable, and knowledgeable. Oh and also had a hint of entertainment, enough to get a chuckle out of us here and there.

Excellent place to walk, over 250 acres of green yard with trees 🌳 The mansion it's nice inside but nothing incredible I actually prefer the outside area. Anyway if you want the price is $10 kids go for free.

The tour of the mansion is $10. Dmitri the guide is exceptional. Knows everything to know about the mansion, the grounds, the gilded age, and the Vanderbilts. Recommended!

If you like historic architecture and interior design, tours are offered with a guide about every hour except 12pm (confirm with the visitors center), and runs about 45 minutes. The first and second floor as well as the basement are open for viewing. Beautiful grounds and a great view across the Hudson River.
