There's this farm that once belonged to Abraham Lincoln's son. And for some reason, it's kept up as a museum and a working goat farm. I don't know. At least Hildene has more cultural significance than Hearst Castle. Plus it's a little more classy, in a the biggest architectural splurge is a pipe organ built into the house. The garden is pretty and they do a decent step toward addressing the racial history of Pullman Cars (Roger Lincoln was once CEO).
It's a nice way to spend a day, and the nearby town of Manchester has plenty of restaurants and little shops to keep you busy.
