Description:
This gracious, red-brick home, marked with a colonnaded portico, was built in 1911 for Alberta's first premier. Following years of use as the official residence, the home was restored to its present-day appearance. It now offers visitors costumed guides who lead them through the mansion explaining history, architecture and décor. Arbour Restaurant on the premises serves lunch and tea; call 780-422-2697 to make the necessary reservations. The gift shop carries period-styled gifts and souvenirs.
