"Great Learning Experience. Very Knowledgeable people involved in the tour. You will walk out feeling different about life, or I at least did. It's always great to learn more about the history that has happened before us etc. it's a must go. The house was I believe was built around 1847, yes 1847 WOW. Please Check it out I would say if your in the Albany New York area etc."
"I recommend visiting this historical gem in Albany. Paul and his team are very knowledgeable, welcoming, and instrumental in preserving the legacy of Stephen and Harriet Myers. I appreciate their research and delving into local upstate abolitionists whose names aren't as well known, but because of this museum, their lives, stories, and contributions to the underground railroad are highlighted."
"What an amazing place with an incredible story! If you are visiting Albany this place is a must visit!"

"I would recommend that anyone who is in the Albany area please stop by this historical site. Mary Liz & Paul Stewart are a wonderful couple who engage you & help transport you back in time!! My family & I learned so much & walked away with a great appreciation for all their hard work & dedication towards the restoration of this site."
