Reviews
"Free during the Doors Open Milwaukee event The exhibits and art pieces were interesting, but I think the current admission is a little bit too high. But that's just me"
"Always a gem of a visit even w/o an exhibit/show. This is a wonderfully preserved Victorian Tudor home with extremely interesting furnishings and art in a beautiful lake side setting."
"Awesome little local museum representing the life and art collectioning of Sarah and Charles Allis at the beginning of 20 century. I've had a great hour there. Recommend to visit."
"This one wasn’t for us. Yes, it has art but the labels for the pieces were few and far between. Yes, it had furniture, but is this how it was when they lived here? Some more storyboards or an audio tour would help. But a reasonable price and you can get a combo ticket with the nearby Villa Terrace."
"Visiting this museum was part of an enchanted afternoon in Milwaukee's Lower East Side. You'll have to decide for yourself what's the most appealing: the private art collection or the home itself. I ambled thru the museum at my own pace and enjoyed all of its tranquility. While standing on the second floor marble staircase, I watched a wedding reception on the patio below. What a lovely setting for special occasions."
