Wisconsin Historical Society | Black Point Estate & Gardens
About this place
Visiting Black Point Estate & Gardens feels like you are stepping back into a 19th-century dinner party, as you enjoy the cool lake breezes on the mansion’s veranda, sip Seipp beer, and hear the soothing sounds of the 1911 Chickering piano. After enjoying a 45-minute scenic boat tour of beautiful Geneva Lake, you will arrive at the expansive and elegant estate, spanning eight acres of land and 620 feet of undisturbed shoreline. The jewel of the experience is your 90-minute tour of the first two floors of the Queen Anne-style mansion that includes 20 rooms. The home features a collection of beautiful Victorian furniture, as well as pieces from later generations that help tell the story of this dynastic Wisconsin family through the years. The original furnishings remained in the house while each generation added its own touches. Today, the home is a rare time capsule that spans Wisconsin history, with décor spanning from its Victorian beginnings into the new millennium.
