Staying at Pine Manor
Many
organizations, schools, and camps choose PMC's beautiful campus
to run their activities or house their participants. Our residence
halls are available, June through August. Five houses are grouped
in each "village." Each house sleeps 30, with 10 doubles
and 10 singles. Guests have full use of grounds, library, and lounge
areas. Daily rates are moderate and can be adjusted to include three
excellent meals.
Ellsworth Theater
Housed in a modern, air-conditioned building, our largest
auditorium seats 476. Complete stage and performance facilities
include an orchestra pit, dressing and rehearsal rooms, professional
theatre lighting and audiovisual equipment. Four classrooms and
a smaller lecture hall are also available and can accommodate from
30 to 70 guests. A spacious gallery surrounds the auditorium and
provides an ideal area for product exhibits, as well as "between-the-scenes"
relaxation.
Roughwood
The original estate dwelling built in 1891, and now the
Ferry Administration Building, was called Roughwood. "Candle
snuffer" turrets, the use of local materials, like red sandstone
and "pudding stone," and leaded glass windows create an
imposing Richardsonian structure. The circular drive is paved with
cobblestones, originally ballast for Boston's sailing ships.
The foyer of Roughwood is a spacious place to register
or welcome guests, with a massive, rusticated granite and polished
red marble fireplace and dark oak paneling, high ceilings, and carved
gilt detail. Paired French doors lead to a terrace. Off the foyer
is the elegant Moncrief Room. Its carved fruitwood and matchbook
paneling of Circassian walnut and period-style furnishings make
it ideal for small receptions and parties.
In the English Georgian Founder's Room, a carved double
staircase (perfect for photos or grand entrances) descends to a
generously proportioned, fireplaced room. Oak-paneled walls with
rare tapestries hang below a beamed and gilt ceiling. Jutting, stone
casement windows and teak floor add to the grandeur. Doors open
to a gorgeous lawn, enhanced in June by a spectacular rhododendron
hedge.
