Beautiful place to explore in summer. The house tours are available with purchases of tickets. We got an amazing tour from our tour historian. Even kids had fun. If you have time I recommend taking the tour. Kids under 12 enter for free with Adults. $10 per person. Outdoors can be explored without tickets.

We went for the eclipse event and it was amazing. So well run. The staff were so welcoming and answered all our questions. The house was beautiful and the grounds were spectacular. We would definitely visit again. We had a great time.

Great place. The park is open till sunset but park parking closes at 3:30 pm. However you can park at the gravel 25 feet from the entrance. Guided tour is paid and self tour is free

Beautiful, quiet spot on a sunny winter day. Considering how nice the grounds look off-season, we will be back once everything is in bloom. The building was closed as expected but looks wonderful from the outside.

Grey Tower is an absolute gem, and I couldn't be more pleased with my visit! From the moment I arrived, I was struck by how well-maintained and beautiful the place is. The grounds are immaculate, and the building itself is a stunning piece of history preserved with great care.

The staff at Grey Tower deserve special praise for their professionalism and dedication. Everyone I encountered was friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to share information about the history and significance of the site. Their passion for preserving and educating visitors about Grey Tower's rich history is truly commendable.

The educational experience was top-notch. The exhibits are well-curated, providing a deep dive into the historical and cultural context of the tower and its surroundings. Guided tours are informative and engaging, with the guides offering fascinating insights and anecdotes that bring the past to life.

Whether you're a history buff or just looking for a beautiful and enriching place to visit, Grey Tower is a must-see. The combination of superb maintenance, an enthusiastic and knowledgeable staff, and a wealth of educational opportunities make it an exceptional destination. I highly recommend a visit to Grey Tower - it's a five-star experience all around!

Beautiful place and wonderful history. The 120 year old European Chestnut trees are awe inspiring.

This place is beautiful. It is free to walk the grounds, garden and most buildings except the main mansion that requires a timed tour. In one building they had a 20 minute video on Gifford Pinchot and various artifacts. Great place to wander and enjoy the views. There is a small gift shop which is also where you get tickets for the tour.

We have been to Grey Towers multiple times we love it there! The amazing views, history and architecture make it worth a visit. They have a place to picnic and clean bathrooms( the whole property is very clean and maintained) We haven’t tried the mansion tour yet.

Walked around the grounds, it was lovely! Ran into a tour guide and learned so many interesting things. We plan to return with the kiddos! The inside tour would absolutely be worth it, wish we'd had more time. Ladies in the gift shop/ ticket counter were super friendly and informative too. Be sure to check out the cemetery and upper forestry school trail too!

Beautiful place. Stonework is amazing. Nice parking area. Paved trails around the property. Landscape is meticulously kept. Quiet and peaceful place. Close to the interstate.

Went here not knowing what to expect. From the first steps up the path to the château atop, we felt immersed in the natural atmosphere of the place! The grounds have numerous well tended trees, and a guide to them all, of which we only got to experience a fraction in our short time frame, but we're going to go back again some time.

The house itself, and the immediate grounds around it, are subject of a tour the park service will give you. We arrived before the official start of the tours for the year, but they were, to our delight, doing a soft opening. The $10 a person for a knowledgeable guide, who not only presented incredible information on the people, home, grounds, and the national forest service itself were more than worth it.

When you've had your day at the park, the little town of Milford below is an excellent destination for lunch, dinner, ice cream, or some odd shopping at little stores, as well.

Great place taken care of by US Forest Service. Took the tour, very informative. Very interesting grounds, what the wealthy can do is limited only by the technology of that time. Dog friendly grounds, also no photo restrictions. Check their website for questions.

Beautiful French Chateau style Mansion, Formerly the home of the Pinchot Family located in Beautiful Milford Pennsylvania, now a preserved museum with a lot of history. Visits outside of the property are free with lots of renovations and multiple hiking trails. The guided tour inside the mansion is only $10 per person and is recommended. You can watch the 20-minute film for free at the Bait Box, which will give you a sneak preview of what you will see inside.

Great spot. We did not do the formal tour but wandered around the grounds on our own. Very beautiful. The outdoor dining area was my favourite

A wonderful tour of an old family's home in Milford. Loved that they were one rich family that didn't own slaves to build their wealth. Then they donated most of their money. Beautiful views a must-see.

The grounds are absolutely beautiful! I learned so very much about the Pinchot family history.
And of course the importance of forest conservation. Thank you Mary Ann for a wonderful tour.
A must see, if you're in the area.

The tours are on the hour, but not daily. You do not need to be on a tour in order to view the grounds. The entire facility is beautiful and very well maintained. There are plenty of garden and landscape areas to explore. There are public restrooms by the parking and by the home, as well as benches along the walkway from the parking to the home. There is handicap parking by the entrance of the building.
