  • The Clemuel Ricketts Mansion (also known as the Stone House, the William R. Ricketts House, and Ganoga) is a Georgian-style house made of sandstone, built in 1852 or 1855 on the shore of Ganoga Lake in Colley Township, Sullivan County, Pennsylvania in the United States. It was home to several generations of the Ricketts family, including R. Bruce Ricketts and William Reynolds Ricketts. Originally built as a hunting lodge, it was also a tavern and post office, and served as part of a hotel for much of the 19th century. After 1903 the house served as the Ricketts family's summer home; they kept it even as they sold over 65,000 acres (26,000 ha) to the state of Pennsylvania from 1920 to 1950. The house was included in the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) in 1936 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1983. A group of investors bought the lake, surrounding land, and house in 1957 and developed them privately for housing and recreation. The house became the Ganoga Lake Association's clubhouse, and is not open to the public. The original mansion is an L-shaped structure, two-and-a-half stories high, with stone walls 2 feet (0.6 m) thick. It was built in a clearing surrounded by old-growth forest with a view to the lake 900 feet (270 m) to the east. In 1913 a 2+1⁄2-story wing was added to the north side of the house and the original structure was renovated. The house has seven rooms, four porches, and its original hardware and woodwork. Dormers and some windows were added in the renovation, and electrical wiring and modern plumbing have been added since. According to the NRHP nomination form, the Clemuel Ricketts Mansion "is a stunning example of Georgian vernacular architecture". (en)
  • 里基茨石屋（Clemuel Ricketts Mansion）位於美國賓夕法尼亞州沙利文縣，是屬於格魯吉亞風格的房舍，主要建築房子為石頭，因此也被稱為里基茨石屋。該石屋建於1852年，為當地里基茨家族擁有。本來石屋建造的目的僅是為了狩獵，後來在19世紀末期發展成小酒館。 臨著湖泊美景的該石屋屬於L型建物，有兩層半樓高。最大特色是厚達0.6公尺的石牆。1913年後陸續擴建整修，今日共有28間客房，四個廳室；連同庭園約有26,000公頃。因為具有歷史價值，美國國家史蹟名錄早於1950年就將其列入。 今石屋產權屬於私人俱樂部所有，並不對公眾開放。之後，也進行天窗、窗戶、電氣線路及管線建設。即使現代化了，仍不改其存在價值。國家史蹟名錄內文，甚至稱頌里基茨大樓是格魯吉亞鄉土建築的傲人傑作。 (zh)
