A pristine example of America's Gilded Age, the mansion boasts intricate woodwork, hand-carved marble fireplaces, ornate plaster ceilings and Tiffany stained glass windows. Each room has been restored and furnished with antiques. All rooms have king size beds and whirlpools and most have working gas fireplaces. All bedrooms are smoke-free.
