THIS PLACE WAS GREAT!! REALLY COOL!! THE GROUNDS ARE BEAUTIFUL!! THE MANSION HAS SOME REALLY COOL HISTORY!!! VERY VERY COOL

So neat! Check out the 2nd floor and library! Oh the lake too! Anyone know what the crosses are for there's a lot when you go walking on the trail!

Great play and a friendly atmosphere. The service was great the staff were very friendly v it was such an enjoyable evening.

I grew-up in Berwyn hearing teens talk about going out and dodging crazy monks while looking for “Peabody’s Tomb.” The legend (in the day) was that if you got caught the monks would subject you all kinds of corporal punishment. I never went on one of those adventures (decades ago) but I did finally visit the estate and I took the tour. My guide explained all of the truth (which explained the urban legends).The property is amazing and the history is fascinating. The $8 for the tour was well worth it. I’m so glad that DuPage County bought the property instead of allowing it to be turned into more ridiculous McMansions (which litter the area—you’d think people with so much money would have better taste but, yeah, nope). Anyway, this is a great way to spend a couple of hours—especially if you enjoy history. Top notch!

Attended my son's wedding at the chapel on property this last March. Small but excellent venue for parties under 60. The rest of the estate was like walking through a life-size clue game - many of the wedding guest came back for tours of the facilities after the wedding. Great history lesson as well as views around the estate - even in March!
