"Great historic house. Unlike most historic houses 90% of what's inside the house is original."
"A Portland treasure!"
"I like history and old things, so I really enjoyed my visit here. It was very amusing to learn about the daily 11am "rum break" in Portland and how P. T. Barnum was an active prohibitionist. I found the place by accident and I believe it's only open twice a week (Monday and Thursday) for a few hours, so be sure to call in advance. It's not a flashy place, but a good choice for those who like history."
