Step back in time to 1902 and stay in your favorite guest room in The Wilburton mansion this summer! This is a rare treat as the mansion is typically only rented as a private home. You can explore each room and feel like Goldilocks picking the romantic guest room that is “just right” for you.

Each guest room is decorated with antiques and captures a different chapter in the colorful history of The Wilburton mansion.

The Railroad Baron suite is named for Chicago tycoon, Albert Gilbert, who built The Wilburton in 1902 as his summer home and 500 acre Gentleman’s farm. It was the largest private estate in Manchester.

The RKO Movie Star suite is where Joan Fontaine summered when RKO owned The Wilburton. Back then, it was an exclusive retreat for movie stars hiding from the limelight and corporate getaways.

The new three guest room Downton Abbey Wing is where staff lived for over 120 years! Now this suite is perfect for families or groups of 6 guests.
