If youre into Victorian architecture, this is a pretty cool building. You can walk around the grounds and there is a nice lake behind. A lot of people come here to take wedding pictures. And theres a nice nature hike trail that you can take that goes around the lake.

This place is very cool. Great historical experience. Call for a appointment during covid.

Beautiful former manor home, now part of a local school, with a lovely view of a lake and mountain ridge behind. The Hall offers tours, but wasnt open when we visited.

An informative and entertaining talk about FDR and his association with Rutherfurd Hall and the people who lived there in the historical framework of his life and work presented outside on the magnificent grounds....way large enough for social distancing. A wonderful evening.

So I went here with my wife for a friend’s wedding. The first thing we see as we are pulling up is an old man sun bathing on the corner of the property. Everyone was mortified. This was the topic of conversation for the rest of the evening. I don’t blame the creepy old man with Lieutenant Dangle shorts, I blame the venue for not posting there was an event that day, or not having anyone on site to make sure there were no stragglers. When I removed the old man from the property, he had some choice words, which could have been avoided, had the venue been more thorough or had any sort of process. I hope nobody else has to spend money to book this mansion, to have creepers ruin it.

Went there for a Jazz Concert. The concert hall is in an old mansion and is just beautiful. Intimate setting and nice for Jazz. They are updating the rest rooms so that will be much better. Beautiful setting in Allamuchy. Easy on/off from 80. Parking on site.

Rutherfurd Hall is an amazing cultural center with an amazing historical story.This tutor-style house was designed by Whitney Warren, who later won the bid to design Grand Central Terminal. The landscape of the grounds were also designed by the Olmsted Brothers who became famous for designing/landscaping many of todays national parks.The Rutherfurd family lived here as early as the mid-eighteenth century, and over their families time here hosted many famous titans of industry and even future American presidents. Theres a really fun/interesting story about FDR and Alice Morton. Later, Rutherfurd Hall was donated to the church and used as a type of retirement home for the nuns.Rutherfurd Hall is now owned by the Allamuchy School District who does a great job utilizing it to maintain this beautiful structure. If you go on a Wednesday, youll be able to receive a tour through the beautiful home. Their tour guides are absolutely fantastic and know so much of the history so thoroughly it is really impressive.Rutherfurd Hall does weddings on its own, but a local venue Davids Country Inn also holds wedding ceremonies on the grounds. Ill be having my ceremony at Rutherfurd Hall and could not be more excited!

Awesome park like setting with a beautiful lake

Allways a beautifull visit

Very nice peaceful location

Gorgeous historical estate. Beautiful vistas. I must visit.

Very nice place to hold a small wedding. However was very cold

I am a deathly spectre that haunts these halls. Please visit and learn about the influential Rutherfurd family and their ties to FDR. Or enjoy our lush grounds with a stroll by the water (the limits of my phantasmal reach). My favorite is when school, scout or other youth groups use our facilities for activities as I am reminded of my youth lost to me nare a century ago. Hope to see you soon.

Great intiment Concert venue with a variety of Jazz groups!! Very enjoyable!!

Older hall / converted mansion. Should definitely be preserved for the future. Very nice building if you like older Victorian structures.

Attended an Allan Harris Quartet Concert featuring the music of Eddie Jefferson and Nat King Cole on August 24 with my wife. It was amazing! Not only were the musicians perhaps the best weve ever heard, (the pianist particularly), but Harris himself was exceptionally entertaining. His voice was otherworldly and his stories fascinating. Rutherfurd Hall itself was an unexpected treat. What we saw of it in the 20 minute intermission was enough to ensure that we would be returning for a complete tour. We never imagined there was such an historical and architectural gem right here in our midst. And I have to complement the hosts. They made the entire experience warm and satisfying.

Beautiful old mansion. Great venue for live jazz.

VEEY nice, but rooms should be singles...

Excellent location for an event. And the staff went above and beyond for all our special needs.

A beautiful building. Which provides an excellent venue for holding events from weddings to fund raisers for your organization. The staff works with you to help you have a great event. They also have events that they put on through out the year, jazz concerts, speaker series, children summer programs and more. I have organizes several events at Rutherfurd Hall. All of the guest loved the atmosphere that Rutherfurd Hall provides.

Lovely classic building with a great history. Works great as venue for your event, no matter if its a wedding or just a party.

We attend Sunday afternoon jazz concerts here. It is a small intimate venue. There is a long history connected to the main building. The venue is undergoing improvement.

Go for the view and the serene atmosphere I love this place and be sure to take the tour!
