Yes, Sheridan - after she passed away, he never returned and it was left incomplete .. it's an amazing place!
The history is bittersweet and the renovations they have done create a feeling of being back in the early 1900's. I love the Thousand Island region .. the water is soo crystal clear and clean and the fish are huge .. I saw a number of carp in the shallows .. A beautiful region of New York .. it's funny how people consider New York for the city alone and it's a large state with a lot of individual beauty all it's own .. I regretting returning to Long Island with all it's traffic and congestion after being surrounded by all that open land and clean air!
No orchids - Swamper but the grounds are beautifully manicured .. They could use a few good orchids
