Blithewold is a 33-acre summer estate with grand views of Narragansett Bay and is nationally significant in American history as one of the most fully developed and authentic examples of the Country Place Era. The property features a 45-room mansion filled with family heirlooms, and is framed by a series of lovely gardens that range in character from mysterious to exotic and from poetic to practical. Each year in late December, the Van Wickle/McKee family would return to Blithewold to celebrate Christmas and the New Year. The household staff would arrive days before the family to ready the house for all the holiday celebrations. The head gardener and caretaker would gather evergreen boughs and cut down a tall tree from the property. The housekeeper and maids would decorate the tree in the entrance and the mantles in each room with the greenery, ensuring that their visitors would be welcomed into a warm house filled with the fragrance of Christmas. Everywhere you look, you’ll be filled with the joy of the holiday season past and present.Blithewold is a 33-acre summer estate with grand views of Narragansett Bay and is nationally significant in American history as one of the most fully developed and authentic examples of the Country Place Era.

William Vanderbilt built Marble House as a 39th birthday present for his wife Alva Vanderbilt. It was a social and architectural landmark that set the pace for Newport’s subsequent transformation from a quiet summer colony of wooden houses to the legendary resort of opulent Gilded Age mansions. The house was designed by the architect Richard Morris Hunt, inspired by the Petit Trianon at Versailles. The cost of the house was reported in contemporary press accounts to be $11 million, of which $7 million was spent on 500,000 cubic feet of marble.
The Elms was the summer residence of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Julius Berwind, whose fortune was made in the coal industry. Architect Horace Trumbauer modeled it after the 18th-century French chateau d’Asnieres outside Paris. The Elms combines the elegance of French style with the grandeur of the Gilded Age. Its landscape and art collections are among the finest in Newport.

From the shear granite cliffs to smooth rock beaches, you’ll see a rugged maritime landscape etched by glaciers and battered by sea & wind. Here, the ocean teems with life; harbor and grey seals on ledges, nesting bald eagles, and pods of harbor porpoise chase schools of herring. This cruise provides opportunities to see a variety of seabird species such as gulls, northern gannets, double crested cormorants, black guillemots, and eider ducks! We stay in the protected waters of Frenchman Bay, which is rich in history-home to the Wabanaki for thousands of years, explored by Europeans as early as the 1600’s, and eventually settled by the late 1700’s.
You’ll attend the 80th Annual Maine Lobster Festival along the Rockland harbor front where lobster is king! Feasting and festivities include music and entertainment and of course – feasting on hot Maine lobster and other Maine delicacies such as blueberry pie, fried clams, shrimp cocktail, steamed mussels! At years past festivals, nearly 8 tons of lobster was prepared in the world’s largest lobster cooker – plus many other seafood and non-seafood items for lunch on your own today. Rockland is the entry point to Penobscot Bay, perhaps the most scenic body of water on the eastern seaboard. There is a wonderful boardwalk surrounding the park so you can sit back and enjoy the festivities and ocean breezes! Or explore Rockland’s Main Street with art galleries and shops just steps from the gate.
Boothbay Harbor is a small, coastal town in Maine known for its maritime heritage, seafood, and many activities.
