There is cobblestone and some walking involved so we ask for no stiletto heels. Instead, we suggest wedges or sandals. Guests should arrive at the parking lot and then walk down to the Vanderbilt Mansion. There will be golf carts available to shuttle guests to the mansion who have mobility challenges.
