The Mills mansion is in Staatsburg, about another five miles north up the road (route 9?) from there. It is $8 for a tour of the home (79 rooms) and is absolutely incredible. More spectacular views of the river. Mills is not quite so perfectly preserved, but somehow that makes it even more interesting. It has Grecian urns in the collection in the home that are 2500 years old, a priceless antiquity left to the state by its heiress.
