Manitoga: sunset at dragon rock

Enjoy a late afternoon in-depth tour of the House, Studio and Woodland Garden. Then soak up the majestic sunset with a glass of wine and conversation with other design enthusiasts on Dragon Rock's terraces, overlooking the Quarry Pool. This experience includes the interiors of the House, Studio & Design Gallery.

EXPERIENCE SUNSET AT DRAGON ROCK

Visitors follow the upper Quarry Path to Dragon Rock. Along the way, the tour features stunning views of the House and Studio, an ascending stone staircase, a field of mountain laurel, and the exquisite moss room. Visitors approach Dragon Rock by crossing the majestic waterfall via a wood plank bridge. Interior spaces are defined by expanses of glass, innovative materials use, and seamless connections to outside terraces. Guests are invited to enjoy a spread with wine and charcuterie at the main House. The Tour concludes by following the upper Quarry path back to the Visitor/Guide House.

Sunset Tours include The Russel & Mary Wright Design Gallery at Manitoga, featuring over 200 objects from the Wrights’ ground-breaking designs for the American home, with lead support from the Henry Luce Foundation. The Gallery will be included on all public tours through November 14 and highlighted on 2022 Collectors Tours.

PLEASE NOTE - Manitoga’s Public Tours will resume in mid-May of 2024.

PLEASE NOTE: ACCESS to the Inner Quarry area with House and Studio is by ADVANCE RESERVATION / GUIDED TOUR ONLY.
