I’ve always wanted to tour Greystone . . . I can’t believe I have never been there! This is the excuse I have been needing to go, thanks Tanaz!
I am interested in the tour. How much of the house will be accessible to those on the tour? Will we get to see the whole place?
Hi Mary. Many of the rooms will be transformed by these interior designers, so you’ll get to see those for sure. There are also private ranger tours that you may find interesting. Be sure to check their calendar of events. You can find more information on their website: http://www.greystonemansion.org. Be sure to come back and let me know how you liked it! I look forward to hearing from you.
