Geocache Description:


This Cache is placed as part of the 2022 Taconic Region Geocaching Challenge. Please see MN 1 Tweety for more information.  The stamp is NOT a trade item.  

Over the years, the house underwent many changes, including a nearly complete rebuilding by Margaret Beekman Livingston after being burned by the British in 1777 and a remodeling in the Colonial Revival style in the 1920s.

Today, the home appears as it did in the 1930s, with furnishings that reflect all three centuries of the Livingston family’s occupancy. Fine Empire period furniture is complemented by exquisite chandeliers, porcelain, and artwork. The surrounding grounds feature a walled garden, 1820s Lilac Walk, and a wilderness garden. Clermont’s trails feature some of the best bird watching in the region.

Please take care with the cache and replace log and stamp as found.  BRING A PEN.  And please, no trade items for this cache. 

This cache blends in well and is handicapped/wheelchair accessible.
