“We didn't go inside, we walked around the grounds which are beautiful.”
From the reviews
The Chelsea Mansion and surrounding gardens is so beautiful it’s hard to describe it is another great example of the progress of restoration. The Muttontown preserve is right next door that makes a nice day trip combo. Every Spring the landscapers plant flowers, mow lawns, trim hedges, it is such a joy to see it all.
My husband and I found this place by accident looking for an area with fall foliage on the Island. On Google it's described as a preserve. We had no idea it had a mansion from the Gold Coast era sitting on the property.
I was there in January but will make it back when the weather gets warmer. The grounds are beautiful, similar to a mini Westbury Gardens.
Absolutely stunning! My last visit was a little disappointing because the adjoining estate and grounds looked quite neglected. This visit was a delightful surprise to see lovely care taken on grounds maintenance.
Getting married at Chelsea Mansion
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
