What you will see

The Main Lodge was Durant’s greatest building achievement. It dates from 1897.

The dining hall seats 84 and serves three meals a day to our guests. It dates from 1897 and was enlarged by Mrs. Vanderbilt in 1901 and 1924.

Great Camp Sagamore from the air. It is a 27-building complex on Sagamore Lake.

The functional architecture for the worker’s complex is red board-and-batten structures and looks very different from the Vanderbilt guest buildings.

The bowling alley is often a surprise because it imposes a city sport on the wilderness.  But Mrs. Vanderbilt was known to win often!
