I visited this place during my September 2023 vacation. Because the time I arrived, I did not have enough time to see the interior of the mansion. However, I was able to walk trough the beautiful gardens and arboretum. Additionally, I got to walk around the mansion and see a great view nearby. Loved this place.

The grounds are what make this mansion tour well worth the price of admission. We stopped by during the Daffodil Festival and it was quite remarkable. Very large Asian influence in the gardens as evidenced by the extensive oriental trees and shrubs. Don't pass it by.
