About Lock & Key
The new Lock & Key guided tour will take guests through spaces in the mansion, carriage house, boathouse, grounds, and gardens. This tour complements Glensheen’s self-guided Classic or Full Mansion tours.* Guests will learn about the Congdon family and the staff who worked for them across the estate, along with seeing behind-the-scenes spaces typically not open to the public. These guided tours will be offered daily starting May 1, 2023.
*Please note that the Lock & Key Tour does not include access to the self-guided Classic or Full Manion tour of the house. Tickets for these tours must be purchased separately if desired.
ALL GUESTS must go to the Ticket House to check in prior to the start of the tour.
Grounds Admission is included with the purchase of any mansion tour.
We encourage guests to dress for the weather! The tour route includes outdoor pathways but will take place rain or shine.
We strongly recommend purchasing tickets in advance. To purchase online, click here. Tickets will also be sold in person at Glensheen’s ticket house, however, we strongly encourage guests to purchase tickets online due to the limited number of tour spaces.
Est. Time: 1.5 hours.
