Naumkeag Review
This Berkshire cottage once owned by Joseph Choate, a successful New York lawyer and an ambassador to Great Britain during President William McKinley's administration provides a glimpse into the gracious living of the gilded era of the Berkshires. The 26-room gabled mansion, designed by Stanford White in 1886, sits atop Prospect Hill. Its many original furnishings and art span three centuries; the collection of Chinese porcelain is also noteworthy. The meticulously kept 8 acres of formal gardens designed by Fletcher Steele are worth the visit.
