I grew up in Caz, and visited Lorenzo many times with my family and for school trips as well. I was finally able to show my wife around. The grounds are beautiful as always, and a walk through the well kept paths and trails is a great way to relax. They’re currently doing maintenance on the front steps of the main house, and the building is closed, but it’s still a great place full of history to visit.

Beautiful home with a lot of history covering the owner John Lincklaen - an agent of Holland Land Company and the founder of Cazenovia. Our guide was very knowlegeable, the home was filled with so many wonderful pieces of yesteryear. The gardens were in bloom and we were lucky they were open that day and there were several tour group on site. I'd love to wander through during the Christmas season.

The house was closed when I visited as this was the final stop on a long day of historical tourism but I was still able to walk the grounds and see the beautiful gardens. All were well maintained and groomed. There is also some restoration work going on the front of the home currently.

If you're here for the geocaching, the caches were fairly straightforward with really pretty fields and wildflowers to walk through. Bathrooms were open although the historic site was closed when I went (Tuesday).

Beautiful gardens. Trails along the meadows and into the woods make sure some fun hikes. The main house and visitor center are only open certain days - so make sure to check before you go.
