Great way to spend 2 hours. The house itself is not super extensive, you can finish touring the rooms on your own in 45 minutes, and spend some time on the grounds. I enjoyed Rough Point a lot more than Marble House down the road - the architecture and decor inside is a lot more personable, and it’s an added bonus that Doris Duke actually spent time living in the house, so it’s not like a museum where everything is set up to be displayed but rather we saw how she actually used her rooms. There’s a lot of European inspiration, like tapestries and period furniture/portraits so it’s funny to see modern items like a microwave, dustbuster, landline phone, all from the early 90s. Just a reminder that it was lived in until Duke died in 1993.

The outdoor grounds are worth a stroll too - a couple of benches outside for sitting and lots of open grass. I don’t know if you can picnic on the grounds - if you can, definitely do because the scenery can’t be beat. The Cliff Walk passes by this house so you’ll see some people walk by. You can visit just the grounds for $5 if you’re not interested in the house.
