Enjoy a private tour of the magnificent Edgewater Mansion. Take in the opulence of the mansion's dining room, admire the beautiful elegance of the 19th Century decoration in the sitting rooms and take a peek into some of the rooms off the official public tour. Wander the grounds and you come across the estate's pool, fit for F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Jay Gatsby". Edgewater’s impressive facade is best appreciated by those who approach from the Hudson River. Built in 1824, its temple-fronted colonnade ornaments a large house that was made even more impressive by the addition of an enormous octagonal library in 1854. The combination of an octagonal library and classical portico captivated visitors well into the twentieth century—including its last two private owners, Gore Vidal and Richard Hampton Jenrette. Bring your picnic basket and enjoy the grounds with views to the Hudson River and Catskill Mountains beyond. Value - $700.
