It was my birthday, and on my birthdays I often take my friends to interesting historic sites. I had visited Grey Towers before COVID and decided to show this beautiful castle to my friends this time.

We drove about an hour and a half from New Jersey, arrived without any problems, and were eager to make it in time for the 11:00 a.m. tour. We arrived early and enjoyed the beautiful grounds, impressive landscaping, towers, and wonderful weather.

I highly recommend visiting this place. It is a beautiful castle with excellent guided tours led by knowledgeable volunteers. Everything is well organized, and you will not regret visiting, no matter what the weather is like.

A wonderful place to spend time. The gardens are beautiful, and the tour is a great way to learn more about American history and the Forest Service.

Amazing place. The nature is incredible so many different trees and flowers. The inside of the estate is beautiful and very atmospheric. I will definitely come back again.

I recently visited Grey Towers National Historic Site in Milford, Pennsylvania, and it was a fantastic experience. The historic mansion is beautifully preserved, and the museum offers a fascinating look into the life of Gifford Pinchot, the first head of the U.S. Forest Service. The grounds are peaceful and perfect for a stroll. I especially enjoyed the exhibits and learning about the history of forestry in the U.S. Highly recommended for history buffs and nature lovers alike!

Beautiful home full of history of an early time of US history and the begginig of the US Forrest conservamcy movement. Pinchot family involved after they, very ironically, made their fortune in the logging industry and significantly deforested the area. Apparently one of the progeny, grandson, i think, became upset witnessing the ravaged woods in pennsylvania. This personn became the first US forrester after studying in europe. He ultimately was govenor of pa twice and established the US Forrest Service. Mansion built by famous architect of the gilded age. Can only tour the first floor for $10 but it is worth it. Nice picture of life then. Some interesting touches outside home as they entertained some big time dignitaries like a stone table with a water center where food would be floated for dining guests to sserve themselves.4 stars because there were part of the gardends that looked very interesting but were locked off without explanation.
