If you get the opportunity to tour the first floor inside, dont pass it up. Tours are offered around Christmas and around gubernatorial inauguration. More

“What's inside?”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

My husband and I took a 'garden tour' which was very disappointing. There wasn't much discussion about the history of the garden, let alone the building. Raleigh could do much better than this, especially since we didn't even get a peek inside on a hot summer day. More

3 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

I toured the Mansion on 10/20/11 with a group of about 10 people. The tours are staggered in groups of up to about 15 people, give or take, depending on if there is a school group. First off, the home is gorgeous. I just wish we had been able to see more of it. Basically you stay in the foyer... More
