Washington Irving’s meticulously restored home is filled with the author’s possessions including his writing desk and books. Guides, costumed in formal dress of the period, explain how Irving designed house and grounds himself to reflect his romantic views of art, nature, and history. Originally a Dutch farmer’s house, it is now a property of a non-profit organization and open for tours. Seasonal events are offered, such as a 4th of July celebration and candlelight tours at Christmas.
