This historic building is the official residence of the governor of Delaware. The land was originally given to David Morgan by the Swedish crown in 1684 and has since passed through the hands of various Dover residents. In 1965, the state purchased the house and it became the governor's residency. You can visit the house on a tour during the week (book in advance). Admission is free.

This is a lovely spot to relax in nature in Dover. The lake, the source of St. Jones River, is teaming with wildlife. Largemouth bass, catfish, striped bass and carp all swim in its waters. Around the edges of the lake, you'll find picnic areas, paths, playgrounds and BBQ grills.
