Welcome!

Overlooking the Hudson River in Poughkeepsie New York, the 200-acre Locust Grove Estate includes an Italianate villa designed in 1851 by architect Alexander Jackson Davis for artist and inventor Samuel F. B. Morse.  Today the estate, with miles of carriage roads, landscaped grounds, historic gardens and Hudson River views, is a not-for-profit museum and nature preserve established by Annette Innis Young, whose inherited collections of art and antiques are exhibited in the mansion’s 25 rooms.

Join us throughout the year for exhibits, guided tours, special events, and more!
