A Winter Retreat for the
Bartlett & Birch Families

Designed and built by Frederic Clay Bartlett, Bonnet House is one of the few complete homes and studios of two American artists open to the public. Throughout the main house, you will see murals on the ceilings, faux marble on the walls and floors, and balustrades that are really paintings. Fish sculptures rise in the air, and shells have their own museum. The Bartletts’ eclectic collections are also on display, everything from antique china to turn-of-the-century carousel animals.
