Burlingham House Visitor Center

About Burlingham House Visitor Center

The Burlingham House Visitor Center bears the name of Julian Alden Weir's youngest daughter, Cora Weir Burlingham, who lived in this house from 1931 to 1986. Today the building serves as the park's visitor center where you can talk with Park Rangers, sign up for tours, obtain Junior Ranger program materials, explore museum exhibits, watch the park film, pick up free-to-use art supplies, and visit the Eastern National Park Store. Public restrooms are available seasonally in the nearby Burlingham Barn.
