  • Review this attraction
  • A rare bit of old New York, this was the stone carriage house of a 1799 estate. When the house burned in 1826, the carriage house was converted into an inn and became a fashionable resort for New Yorkers who wanted to escape to what was then still countryside. The building and garden have been restored by the Colonial Dames of America and furnished with historic objects. Guides are on hand to explain the unique history of the attraction.
