This is a call to the early lovebirds. Whether you need a cool spot for a first date or want to get away for your first, but not too intense, trip together, Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site is perfect. This park is relaxed and not overflowing with feelings of love and passion. In fact, I would call it a place to stroll hand-in-hand.
You and your date can spend the day strolling the park, examining the stunning and unique architecture built for Gilded Age millionaires. Enjoy a guided tour of the Vanderbilt Mansion, and then continue on to the manicured gardens and grounds of the site. The site is located in Hyde Park, which offers two toher historic sites to explore: The Home of Franklin D. Roosevelt National Historic Site and Eleanor Roosevelt National Historic Site.
This is a perfect day-trip for the city couple looking to get away from the day. The site is located in the Hudson River Valley, just 90 minutes north of New York City. Pack a picnic and take your date on a romantic stroll at this national historic site!
