Experience the grand lifestyle of the lumber era with a guided tour of the Mansion. This 1887 restored and furnished lumber baron's home is truly unique. The Cook-Rutledge Mansion is one of the finest remaining examples of High Victorian Italianate architecture in Wisconsin. The Mansion is also a celebrity of sorts, starring in the new Chippewa Falls-based, award-winning, independent movie "The Lumber Baron."
