North Drawing Room

To walk into the North Drawing Room is to walk in the footsteps of U.S. Presidents, politicians, diplomats, social leaders, and foreign dignitaries. It is the House‘s formal entertainment room and is dominated by the gilt mirror shipped to the Carroll family from England nearly 200 years ago. Virginia Bacon added the Steinway grand piano and loved to entertain her guests here with an evening of music, often provided by her good friend Arthur Rubenstein, who stayed at the Bacon House while in town. The Steinway grand piano can be used upon special request. The North Drawing Room is now a favored indoor location for wedding ceremonies.
