With an antique French Aubusson carpet, fine antiques, original artworks and oil paintings, French Rose marble fireplace, the room is elegant and feminine.
The Homestead contains a large and eclectic selection of
over 2,000 books. Daily newspapers, magazines and periodicals are provided.

Guests
have the use of the entire Homestead, including the formal Drawing Room
and Library. For conversation, reading, pre-dinner or after dinner drinks,
these rooms are the ideal location. Both have open fireplaces and
comfortable seating. 
The
Library has more the atmosphere of a gentleman’s club, with William Morris
wallpaper and curtain fabrics. The original wood graining of oak, bird’s
eye maple and tortoiseshell complements the antique mahogany partners’
desk and oak break front bookcase, Ethiopian parchment paintings, antique
prints and etchings.
