Tour Experience

The Stetson Mansion offers visitors entrance into the most authentic and historic site in Central Florida. 95% of the original mansion exists in this magnificent home for the ages. Our lively friendly guides welcome you as a guest in our home as they share historic stories and amazing accomplishments. You will tour the first floor, second floor and Zen guest cottage (formerly the school house.) Your tour will visit the owners private quarters, including their bedroom, bathroom and secret closet. The Grand Tour includes the 3rd floor which has three more bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, the boardroom and Stetson room.

The Mansion is neither a Victorian or Stetson museum. It is a private residence. 95% of the original building is intact!

Knowledgeable and friendly tour guides will guide visitors through the recently restored and updated mansion and school house. Guests will see the country's most beautiful and elaborate inlaid parquet floors (16 different patterns) and antique windows with over 10,000 panes of glass.  This is an all access tour and nothing is marked "private" so the tour includes the private owners quarters as well! View magnificently embellished and appointed rooms, hallways and niches of the mansion. Visitors will also view the original schoolhouse, which has been converted into a beautiful Zen guest house featuring the original soaring Polynesian ceiling. The Grand Tour includes the third floor where guests will see 3 designer decorated bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, the Boardroom and the Stetson Memories Room. A deeper history lesson about the Stetson Hat will be offered in the Stetson memorabilia room,

The Mansion and School House is not filled with old furniture, flowery Victorian curtains or crammed with Stetson artifacts. This is not a museum. We do not have a pot belly stove or do we know how to cook on one! Rather, it is furnished, decorated and updated with a blend of the ages as if the original wealthy family still owned it.  The Mansion is a private residence filled with history that has evolved an updated while at the same time every original opulent detail has been preserved and protected.

Guides will share an intimate history of the Mansion, the Stetsons and share the story about the new owners who saved it. Guests will learn about the famed hat maker John B. Stetson and the many famous visitors that he hosted at the estate. You will hear about the extensive two year restoration and rebirth of this national historic treasure and about the two men whose passion and dreams enrolled hundreds of manufacturers and artists to make it all happen.

The Mansion receives no tax dollars or grants to underwrite the admission price. There is no photography permitted inside the mansion. We celebrate the mansion's history and present use, including the 150th anniversary of the Stetson Company!
