The 18th century Cornwallis house can be found nestled under the cliffs near the Alpine Boat Basin. As a state and national landmark, it takes its name from General Charles Cornwallis, who, according to legend stopped there in 1776 while on his way to attack rebel forces in Fort Lee. The house is decorated with period furniture and is open to the public during summer weekends on a limited basis.
