Wow, this place is so AWESOME! It's truly unlike anything we've ever experienced. Honestly, if you visited every day for a month and stayed three hours, you would still not see everything. At times it was a little overwhelming; so much to see WHILE trying to find secret doors/rooms. The secret doors lead you to totally different spaces; it somehow seems to be never-ending! We just wish it had been a little less crowded; we didn't get a chance to "find" some of the doors because people came through them! But even that was a bit of a thrill, having a wall suddenly open up next to us. A visit earlier in the day might have been a better bet where that's concerned. Being a boomer, this place brought up all sorts of memories and nostalgia and trips through history. If you're a museum lover, you will absolutely love the mansion. If you just like a challenge, you'll absolutely love the mansion. If you were around anywhere near the 60s and 70s, your heart will swell! (But it's not all for older folks!) And I had champagne, so ... :)

I only got to spend an hour her and that is by far not enough time. The history and character of this place is enough to amaze even the most staunchest of critics. Come to be inspired, transported, and intrigued.

This was a very cool place to visit. The antiques and history was fascinating, the different styles of rooms and ornate architectural features throughout the mansion were beautiful. The opportunity to find secret doors was an added bit of fun. Our group found 11. There were many rooms off limits during our visit, and it was crowded enough that we quickly started to feel claustrophobic. It made it very hard to get around and really look at much. We spent a bit over an hour there and had to leave because it was getting more and more crowded by the minute and we were uncomfortable. If the number of people in a time period were better managed we felt like we would get to see more and enjoy our time better. Otherwise it was very nice. Our your time was 11am on a Thursday.

Excellent museum
