Vanderbilt Museum

Good spot to spend a day, bring a picnic mat or sit on the grass and enjoy the lovely views ! Check out the marine museum and the giant whale shark by habitat gallery :)

I came here often on school field trips and now bring my son.. It's still an amazing experience. Check out listings for laser light shows as well as their July 4th shows (call ahead, hours are wonky)

Winter hours is 12-5. Planetarium show: one world, one sky is perfect for kids 1-5 yrs old! This place is very spacious so a lot to walk around and explore for kids. Great water view as well .

Make sure you start at the planetarium . That's where you need to buy tickets for the mansion tour . The people at the gatehouse forget to mention this fun fact and it's a long walk back if you have to.

7.30.2013 Beautiful location for the yen yen's day! Museum & planetarium interesting & informative. Great staff . It's our Long Island history so it's a Must See!

Includes the Eagles Nest mansion, planetarium & marine museum . Don't miss the 1928 Lincoln touring car & natural history exhibits in the mansion.

Great place to take kids for a few hours. They loved running around on the grounds and were interested in the exhibits .

The Vanderbilt Planetarium opened in 1971 & is the largest on Long Island with its 60 foot dome. The observatory is open on Friday nights, & the local Astronomical Society holds monthly viewings too. Read more

Omgs I love place a lot and I'm going tell everyone on my FB and twitter about this place it's really good for all ages

It's even more beautiful at night than it is during the day. And they have a ton of great events .

Nice Place to spend a couple of hours. They should have some signs on the road tho. A little confusing in getting there. It is on a 2 lane road . A large white wall is what you should look for.

The classic rock laser light shows are wonderful. The whole family enjoyed it.

Pack a lunch and spend the day. Eat overlooking the water! Such a beautiful view !

Call ahead! They never seem to be open... just found out the hard way that winter hours are Tuesday, Saturday, Sunday from 12-5.

Awesome place. So much too see

Great Movie From Space & Back.

Revel in the past at the mansion or dream of the future at the planetarium .

Fun and educational establishment!

I get high with a little help from my friends... BEATLES LASER SHOW

Come to the summer Shakespeare plays!

Wes Anderson would love this place.
