Welcome!

Montage of four seasons at the Preserve

Dear Friends,

We are excited to announce a full schedule of exciting events to explore, experience, and celebrate all four seasons!

Visit our Welcome Center in Castle Gould, the Great Lawn, Hempstead House Garden, Forest, and Pond area as well as our Woodland Playground and Dog Run, which are open for play. Check our Mansion page for updated tour schedules for Hempstead House and Falaise.

If you prefer to explore the Preserve independently and at your own pace, Self-Guided Tours are available online for visitors. Three themed tours can be enjoyed on your own schedule and at the pace you set: The History Tour (available in seven languages), Native Wildlife & Diverse Environments, and the Bird Watching Tour.  Each provides new perspectives on this beautiful site.

We hope you will join the Conservancy to support our mission to preserve and enhance the Guggenheim Estate for the benefit of the public. The Conservancy must raise 98% of our budget, so we now depend entirely on Gatehouse revenue, memberships, and donations to sustain our operations. Members receive many benefits, including discounts to select programs and events throughout the year and unlimited free admission to the Preserve’s grounds.

Sign up for email updates and follow us on Facebook and Instagram, so you don’t miss announcements about upcoming programs and events that will be scheduled in the future.

If you have any questions or concerns about the Sands Point Preserve, please do not hesitate to contact us at info@sandspointpreserve.org.
