Reviews of Herman Melville's Arrowhead
"I was skeptical but the tour, house and grounds were very nice. 1 hour tour of the house was interesting (reasonable fee required). The grounds are beautiful, it is a great place to walk in the evening, but bring bug spray."
"Knowledgeable tour guide will certainly broaden your understanding of Herman Melville’s fiction in the light of his biography. It is integral part of the tour (actually at least half of tour time). Furniture is from the time period. Glad I have visited the place, since it explained my teenage “Moby Dick” confusion reading the book. Meadow trail on the property is worth separate mention: quite pretty wildflowers."
"A cool little piece of history for any literature enthusiasts or even those who like history! The views here are amazing! I did not go inside the house but I'm sure it would be worth it!"
"The house was closed as it was a Tuesday. On Wednesday, there was a dress rehearsal which we were invited to by the actors who were working on their play's production. We didn't attend, since we had previous plans. We spent time enjoying the grounds and the views. We chatted with writers who rented out the small writer's cabins on the premises. Beautiful spot! We accessed the home via Rt 7, as Holmes Rd was closed just past the bridge for repair."
"Excellent tour! Guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The house and grounds are lovingly maintained. Whether you are a fan of Melville’s work or not, don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about this interesting man."
