Seelye Mansion

The owner (Terry) was tragically unable due to medical reasons to follow through with the tour. However the tour guide was a 70 year local who was still very knowledgeable of the property. Did get to meet and speak with Terry inside the gift shop. Very kind gentleman who was more than happy to share additional information or questions related to the property. He stayed at the property with the original seyle sisters before they passed away so everything he knows is from the girls who lived there the rest of their lives until the age of 80+ years old. The ballroom and basement was probably our favorite part. The light fixtures are all beautiful.. as they should be because each light fixture was designed by Thomas Edison! Loads of history in this beautiful home! Great place to take the kids and grandkids to learn about what life was like "back in the day". The tour guide was very accommodating. The tour started before we arrived. She continued throughout the home with us meeting the tour where they were at and finished the part we missed again with another group before directing us out the back to the gift store and grounds. No need to make reservations unless it's a larger group or school. Perfect family weekend outing idea as the famous Brookville hotel is not far and is open on weekends only as well so you csn go obsorb the history and then those calories! Can't wait to go back!
