Wikiosco, meaning 'Home on Beautiful Waters', offers commanding views of Lake George. Built in 1895, it is a spectacular example of Tudor Revival architecture and the grand mansions built during the heyday of the aptly named "Millionaire's Row" on the western shore of Lake George in the Southern Adirondacks. A gated entrance and winding landscaped driveway lead to a stone porte-cochere and entrance portico.
