NOTICE: The last day of operation of the Lapham Patterson House State Historic Site will be June 14, 2009.

There are no right angles in the cottage, and nothing is centered or symmetrical. The 19 rooms have 45 doors and 53 windows. Due to its outstanding architectural significance, the Lapham-Patterson House was named a National Historic Landmark in 1975. Admission: $2.50 - $5
