Hearthstone's Summer on the Veranda

Relax in late Victorian splendor while you stroll the veranda and first floor at Hearthstone, our beautifully restored 1882 Queen Anne Style residence. Immerse yourself in the period, listening to performances on our 1875 square grand piano with a cool drink in hand served by maids and butlers in livery.
Our docents will be dressed up as well playing the roles of hostess or the Rogers’ servants as they welcome you into the home while serving complementary lemonade, iced tea, white wine, or mint juleps.
Everyone is encouraged to dress up in their best late Victorian attire. Don’t worry if “you have nothing to wear,” anything that makes will feel elegant and pampered will more than suffice. (Hey, don’t you still have that bride’s maid dress? That will be perfect. Seriously.)
Even just adding a hat will more than do. Ladies are encouraged to wear their best Victorian hats (or any lovely hat) as beautiful hats were de rigueur for Victorian ladies. Gents can sport their own top hat, boater, or bowler. In fact, if you do not have a ladies’ or gentlemen’s hat, we will gladly lend you one from our recreation collection.
But don’t feel like you have to dress up. The evening is really about slowing down the pace of life while experiencing the lavish surroundings of Hearthstone.
