V Bennett:

"Beautiful mansion in Elkhart. The history and story were wonderful. The craftsmanship is extraordinary. I love these kinds of tours and the stories behind the men who built them. Pictures are not allowed inside but you can take pictures outside and in the carriage house. Highly recommend if you like history."

"Went for the free family sunday. The first gentleman and the younger lady were great, but the older lady tour guides were INCREDIBLY rude. Not once were the “rules” explained we were expected to know everything about where to go, that we weren’t allowed to take pictures, etc. and simply asking questions made the older women irritated as if they thought we were stupid. Just an overall horrible experience will not be returning. We also had a tour guide that was off shift in our tour group and she was given special treatment, forcing others to be crowded into smaller areas so her and her friends could go and see where/what they wanted."

"This home I'd beautiful and so full of history. You aren't allowed to take pictures inside, but their reason is understandable. I recommend this place for anyone who loves history or architecture."
