Esta Barrett Manor & Gardens Tour

Looking for something new and different this season? Consider a tour of Esta Barrett Manor & Gardens. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the manor and grounds offer a unique opportunity to learn about the life of Esta Barrett and her Rockford estate.

Guided tours of the Manor and the grounds, designed by noted landscape architect O. C. Simonds, are available on special dates throughout the year or by appointment.

P lease note: Our address is 6901 Kishwaukee Road but our entrance is located at 5084 South Bend Road. When you enter between the brick entrance piers, continue to the left for parking on the permeable grass grid near the Manor. The tour begins under the porte cochere.
