Rose Hill Mansion

Fodor's Review:

Six huge Ionic columns front this restored 1839 Greek-revival mansion overlooking Seneca Lake. More than 20 rooms are open to the public. They include servants' quarters, the children's playroom, the kitchen, formal dining room, and parlors. Some rooms are outfitted with the Empire-style furnishings that were used from 1850 to 1890 by the prosperous farm family that lived here. Guided tours of the house begin with an introductory film. The grounds include boxwood gardens. A Civil War reenactors' encampment is one of the summer events here.

  • Cost: $7
  • Open: May-Oct., Tues.-Sat. 10-4, Sun. 1-5.
