We visited this mansion on June 3rd. The only way to visit is by boat. You can buy tickets at the Lake Geneva Cruise Line. There is a lot of parking on the road in front of the harbor, but you have to pay (1$/hour). The boat trip to the mansion and from the mansion takes each about 40 min... More

this is one of the few, if any, old mansions open to the public for tours. Be prepared for both climbing stairs and walking. At the time of my visit the only way to Black Point was by boat. The boat ride there and back was enjoyable and the house itself exceeded my expectations.

We took the boat ride over to the Estates and when we got there were greeted by the people who took care of the home. We got a guided tour of the home, which has been kept just as it was. The house is beautiful.

I'm from Chicago so there is that connection also. It was very interesting seeing this old mansion... More

This is a very enjoyable thing to do on a nice sunny day. Enjoyed the boat ride to and from the estate. The tour of the estate was good. Would of liked to learn of more history.
