Hyde Park NY area mansions?

I see that there are 23! in the area. We enjoy old homes, history & architecture, but my hubby's eyes will glaze over with this list! Which would you choose & why? Please help us thoughtfully narrow our list. He does enjoy taking photos, but it's not a requirement. We are 2 seniors who can climb stairs. Thanks!
  • Another suggestion is "Olana", a historic mansion next to the Rip Van Winkle bridge near Catskill. It's a little over an hour from your campground.
    No shortage of great day trips in the beautiful Hudson Valley!

    Enjoy!
  • Since we don't really understand the town & neighborhood divisions... When I put Hyde Park, I mean to include the Hudson River Valley area down to Yonkers. Pretty much anything within an hour or so from Newburgh KOA. Thanks!
  • I can think of 2 right off the bat - Vanderbuilt's and Springwood - FDR's place.
