It's not a short jaunt to this point, so you may as well enjoy it.

The property was once a dairy farm owned by the Du Pont family, and now it's divided by gray stone walls that were built of local stone in the late 1800s.

It's open all year long, and in the winter, show shoeing is popular here. You can even bring your dogs with you, as long as they stay leashed.
