Reviews
"This was a wonderful, free tour where you can visit several locations that are all within a short walk of one another. It is a guided tour with missionaries, and they share inspirational stories of things that happened in these locations among the early Saints. There is also a video that's about 25 minutes long that can only be viewed here (as of now). It's about the Whitneys and their faith, as well as that of other early Saints. During the tour, you get to see the Newel K. Whitney store, the Whitney home, the Kirtland Sawmill and Ashery, and the Kirtland Schoolhouse. They're also working on a restoration of Joseph and Emma Smith's home while they were there, which should be done August of 2023. Some of the flooring and other items in these buildings are original. Newel K. Whitney even kept a detailed record of everything he ever bought or sold, so the items in the store, though most not original, are items he actually sold there. They also let you go upstairs and see where some of the Church leaders met, including the room for the School of the Prophets. My kids and parents and I really enjoyed the whole tour. It strengthened our faith."
"This place and specifically this house and store is a unique and important experience for any member of the LDS church, and worth a stop if you are passing through the area. Many visitors will be on their way to New York anyway - this needs to be on that travel itinerary. So many sacrifices were made by so few in Kirtland, and the Whitney family is one of those great examples of faith and sacrifice."
"A great experience to learn about the Whitney family and what they lived like. The missionaries give an informative tour and educate. It was great with kids"
"Well preserved and detailed restoration of the Whitney Store, an important historical place for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This location includes the site of the "School of the Prophets" upstairs and was a place of residence for Joseph Smith."
