Once the home of sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, this beautiful home and garden is now open to the public for free concerts and picnics.

This place was unexpectedly the favorite part of a VT vacation with my family. We almost didn't stop but I have a NPS membership, so admission was free. It happened to be the last day of the season (buildings are all closed from Nov-May but you can still walk around the grounds) and we went on a very informative tour with a super nice ranger. They even kept the main house open for us to look around after our tour. Beautiful, well maintained grounds with statues sprinkled around - highly recommend a stop by if you're in the area!

Cornish-Windsor Bridge

The longest covered bridge in the United States.

Reviewed By TrainManDan10 - Keene, United States

My wife, Golden Retriever, and I were talking a scenic drive along Rt12A from Surry, NH, just north of Keene, along the Eastern Connecticut River Valley to Cornish, NH. A few individual trees were already starting to turn color. Even on a Saturday afternoon, there was very little traffic on this beautiful Byway. I highly recommend this route. As we passed by the bridge, the view was like a picture postcard: very long covered bridge, beautiful Connecticut River, and lovely rolling, surrounding hills. I believe that this covered bridge is the longest that I had ever seen. Many people had pulled off the road to take photos. Outstanding!
