Eisenhower House Visit with Santa

Join us on December 19, 2024, to view the Eisenhower House in its holiday glory. Bring the kids along for a visit and photo opportunity with Santa Claus and enjoy some holiday treats.

This event is FREE, but registration is REQUIRED.

Please note that while Santa will be at the house from 4 – 7 PM for a photo opportunity, a photographer will not be provided, and all visitors must take their pictures. We also encourage guests to bring a canned food item to donate to our local food drive and help spread the holiday spirit!

Built in 1873 by the renowned Newport architect George Champlin Mason & Sons, the historic Eisenhower House has witnessed 150 years of American history. This beautiful house served as President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s “Summer White House” in 1958 and 1960, was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, and was deeded into the Rhode Island State Parks system in 1965. Today, this stately mansion commands breathtaking views of Newport Harbor and Narragansett Bay and serves as an event space specializing in weddings, rehearsal dinners, corporate functions, and so much more.

December is the perfect time to visit this historic and beautiful house to learn about its history, check out the holiday decorations, and view the grounds of the event space.
