Vanderbilt Mansion

Lonely Planet may earn a commission from affiliate links on our site. All recommendations and reviews reflect our own independent opinions.

The railroad-wealthy Vanderbilt family's summer 'cottage' is a beaux-arts spectacle, with most of the original furnishings. The exterior of the mansion was fully restored in 2017; entry within is by tour only, but you're free to explore the grounds, parts of which provide sweeping views over the Hudson River to the Catskills.
