"Pretty interesting place, my wife and I saw it on the side of the road and decided to stop by. The staff was friendly and helpful. We had a chance to look around the vintage houses despite missing the last tour. It was was only a few dollars to look around, and even the tour prices were pretty cheap. Would definitely go back. I'd like to look around the gift shop some more."
"I loved visiting the museum. Such a fascinating history of the houses on the guided tour."
"Like giant dollhouses! I really enjoyed coming here. I took the inside tour but was disappointed to learn that they do not take you to any of the upstairs areas in the homes due to some city code enforcement. Oh, well. The tour was still a lot of fun and it was nice to hear about the history of each house. Our tour guide was super friendly, and she had so much information to share. I love how the guides were all dressed in clothes from that particular time. It was cool. The entry is free, but the tours cost. I recommend buying tickets for the tours in advance, however, they sell out fast."
"Loved our visit here. Miles was our tour guide for the inside tour of the homes. So worth seeing the inside, and Miles was Amazing!!! She had so much cool info about the houses and is such a fan of the Victorian age. We can't wait to go back."
"Excellent tour! The tour guide was so full of information! You don't have to do the tour, you can walk around the outside of the buildings with the $7 ticket. But I highly suggest doing the tour. It's really amazing to look back in time through the amazing preservation that the museum maintains."
