They spent a full six months in Newport each year. The 70 room summer estate of New York Central Railroad President Cornelius Vanderbilt II interiors feature rare marble, platinum leaf wall panels, gilded woods, and gold is everywhere throughout the Mansion. Cornelius Vanderbilt II built the house to take advantage of its views of the sea. A visit here becomes magical as the house and the ocean is dramatic. It’s a visually spectacular site The Breakers and the sea with the house with its marble and its colors is magnificent.

"A summer day began with tennis in the morning at the casino, or a swim at the beach. After a luncheon party there was yachting, polo, or a few rounds of golf." As quoted from the Newport Mansions Preservation Society compelling tour. This is a moment in American culture not to be missed.
