Reviews
"Had the opportunity to work there as an arborist. Beautiful building and location!"
"We love Lorenzo and the Seward house. But the Grandness of the first floor of the Bates house blows them away. Didn't want to leave."
"Historical site nestled in the neighborhood. Italian villa style. Check hours before visiting."
"Attended the 2022 Holiday Open House. A home full of character and history, it was a pleasure talking with all of the Volunteers who were a wealth of knowledge not only to the owners and family of this home, but in the history of the city of Oswego and the era in general. The elegant furnishings are original and well preserved. An experience taking you completely back in time."
"What you will see is a stunning remnant of our American history influenced by other cultures. The house is incredible. I just wish more rooms had been restored/preserved. The docents were very knowledgeable."
