Hello Everyone! Welcome back to my channel!

Today I'd like to bring you inside one of New York’s most spectacular Gilded Age mansions — Staatsburgh State Historic Site, also known as the Mills Mansion.

Located just two hours north of New York City, this grand Beaux-Arts estate overlooks the Hudson River and tells the story of America’s wealthy elite at the turn of the 20th century.

Originally built in 1832 by Governor Morgan Lewis, the mansion was later transformed in 1895 by the famous architectural firm McKim, Mead & White for Ogden and Ruth Livingston Mills — members of one of New York’s most powerful families.

With 65 lavish rooms, elegant French décor, and sweeping river views, Staatsburgh offers a glimpse into the luxurious lifestyle of the Gilded Age.

📍 Location: 75 Mills Mansion Drive, Staatsburg, NY 12580
🚗 Drive from NYC: ~2 hours (about 90 miles)
🎟️ Admission: $10 Adults | $8 Seniors/Students | Free for Kids 12 & Under
