The Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller
National Historic Park was created in 1992 when the Rockefellers
gifted their Woodstock mansion and 550 acres to the US, and the
Park, Vermont's first national park, officially opened in June
1998. The Park is also the "... only national park to focus
on conservation history and the evolving nature of land stewardship
in America." Visitors can tour the mansion and gardens ($6/adults,
$3/children under 16) and head just down the road to take in the
Billings Farm & Museum.
The Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historic
Park is open Memorial Day to October 31, 10-5 and can be reached
at 802-457-3368x22. |
