They decorate the house for the Christmas season . The stairwells can be difficult but they do have elevators . The kindle guides are useful.

Great self guided tour and beautiful grounds to tour on a nice day

Beautiful historic home with neat grounds overlooking the ocean. Be sure to check out the faux-Chinese pavilion.

The scavenger hunt is a good activity for kids and helps them see the details in each room

Christina

Absolutely stunning! The Christmas decorations made it that much more enjoyable!

Jeff Schnirring

Huge place, but the Breakers is even bigger. Just about completely made of marble .

Nicholas Jones

Offers far more insights into French emulation and art history than the other houses. Very cool.

It's amazing piece of property but I would never live next to it like the owner of Oracle is doing

Great window into the lives of some of America’s first tycoons.

Beautiful! Try to do a little research on the Vanderbilts prior. It helps to follow.

Home of American opulence.

560,000 cubic feet of marble never looked so amazing. While there, try to count the number of human faces in the home's rich detailing. Can you even count that high? -WV Read more
