I was disappointed that the house tour focused on a later owner and not Morse. Would have liked to learn more about him. Also, trail around the property were not well maintained,

Coming too early in the season to tour the house; we were able to explore the visitor's center, and some of the grounds.
The center is obviously a popular venue; in that the parking area was nearly full, due to people attending classes/lectures within.
The gift shop has a nice selection of items to browse; with the staff person there being friendly and informative.
There was a really useful, to us, display of complimentary literature regarding the Hudson River Valley; much of which was helpful in our 10 day exploration of the area.
The best part of the visit for us, was viewing the installation of an exhibit of paintings by Scott Thomas Balfe. His works were an exquisite assemblage of stunning landscapes; very much in the Hudson River Valley school of artistry tradition (one of our favorite genres).
If we again visit the area; we hope it coincides with an opportunity to tour the home.

With proceeds from his very successful Morse code telegraph systems, Samuel Morse was able to indulge his true interest - painting. He purchased this lovely estate outside Poughkeepsie. It has been turned into a lovely museum, with gardens, trails and tours of the Morse house. Be sure to sign up for the excellent house tour.

What a surprise stopover. If you have an extra hour or two in the area this is a place not to be missed. The grounds are beautiful and the trails are an easy leg- stretching walk!
The house was very interesting with loads of historical artifacts. I apologize that I don’t remember our guide’s name, but she was very knowledgeable and engaging (we were the only two on the tour).
Sometimes on your travels you find a unexpected stop that you hadn’t planned that turns out to be a gem. This is one!!

The grounds of Locust Grove Estate are great for walking. There are carriage roads and several trails where one may walk through woods with some river and lake views. We did not take a tour while we were there because it was a perfect day for outdoor activities; however, may return at some point to tour the home. The visitor's center has nice restrooms and a lovely gift shop where one may purchase tour tickets or pick up a trail map.

What a place! Everything about it is magical. The manor, the area around, the gardens!
Very romantic, very interesting. And if this is not enough, they have a little museum of our local Da Vinci. Mr. Morse.
This place is a must see!

Fabulous estate. It’s like stepping back in time. The docent was welcoming and able to share her love of the house and stories of the Young family. What a gift to have everything left in place. The museum had information on Samuel Morse to explore.

What a wonderful tour of Locus Grove. There were so many people on the 10:15am tour that the Director called in one of the docents to come take us on a tour of the mansion.
Ethel was the best! What a great tour guide. Since there was only five of us on the tour, we got a personalized tour of the house. The house was so beautifully decorated for the holidays with trees and garland all over the house. All the rooms were decorated which they are normally not in most of these homes and the volunteers did such a good job in decorating.
Every room of the house reflected the Young family's collections and all the items were left by the family when the last family member passed away in the 1970's. It was a real peek into the lives of the family that lived there and how they lived. The kitchen and the dining room were beautifully decorated for Christmas dinner while the rest of the house looked like it was ready to receive guests.
In the summer the grounds are really beautiful but in the middle of the winter they are pretty barren and slushy. Still the house is beautifully designed for the holidays and should not be missed.

First off, the house is very interesting because the Young family who owned it after Morse kept all of their furnishings and art collection intact and the daughter, Annette catalogued everything. What a boon for the historic preservationists!
The grounds are gorgeous, we were lucky to be there in the fall when the leaves were turning and enjoyed walking around the trails on the property.
Unfortunately, the guide spoiled the experience of the house tour. We go on a LOT of historic property tours. I myself am a guide at two historic properties, so I get the challenges of managing a tour group. But this was a group of four. Typically, your tour can be a bit more flexible and adapt to the interests of the group when it's such a small group.
When giving the rules prior to entering the house museum, Judy delivered them in such a scolding manner as if we were already in trouble. Every house museum has rules which amount to "don't touch anything not even the walls," but you needn't deliver them as a strict school marm. From the very beginning she made it clear that questions were not welcome. Every question was met with a retort along the lines of "I will address that later." It seemed as though her tour was highly regimented and any deviation from the script was not welcome.
When she misspoke in a confusing manner and I asked a question to clarify, she got extremely huffy and defensive. I truly was just confused as she was contradicting something she said earlier. But it seemed as though she had little time for our questions and interests.
Giving her the benefit of the doubt, she did say it was her third tour of the day and perhaps they normally have volunteers who give tours and one called off, so she was forced to cover them as a staff member? I'm not sure. But her unwelcoming demeanor and lack of warmth would certainly not encourage repeat visitors.
