Reviews of Lippitt House Museum
"This was an excellent tour. Our group was small, only four, and our guide was Jane who did a fabulous job. She was friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the house, the family and how it fit into Providence history. The tour included most rooms in the house, all beautifully furnished and decorated and it never came across as a memorized speech even know she had probably given the tour dozens or hundreds of times. If you're interested in old homes and/or local history, I would highly recommend this tour, an absolute bargain at the price."
"lived in Providence my whole life and never realized we had this gem. My family and I love history. So we decided to stop by the Lippitt Museum randomly and it did not disappoint. Jane was an amazing tour guide, very knowledgeable and answered all of my dads questions. Definitely recommend!"
"The Lippitt House is a magnificent survivor of a bygone age. The house represents some of that era's very best. The Lippitt family has taken great care to preserve the house and its furnishings so you truly get an authentic feel for what it must have been like to live in such a grand house 160 years ago. Jane gave a terrific tour! She was very well informed and passionate about the house and the Victorian period in general. Full disclosure: I am a docent at the Victorian Mansion in Portland, Maine. Although comparable in their grandness, the two houses are very different despite the fact there is only a five year difference in their ages. I would highly recommend taking a private tour of the Lippitt House. It was not rushed and a lot of fun."
"This was my first time in the area and I decided to stop by. Had a phenomenal tour. Learned a lot about the home and its family. It was a good length. You can purchase tickets ahead of time online."
"I had my wedding ceremony and reception at Lippitt House Museum, and what a dream it was. We had 45 guests and it was perfect for a more intimate event. The house itself is absolutely gorgeous, and I received many compliments! Jane was also very easy to work with and very accommodating. She was prompt in answering all of my questions, and helped ensure that I had a stress free day. Just a few notes if you decide to use Lippitt house as your venue, if you want a outdoor ceremony you have to provide your own chairs. Inside we has access to tables, banquet chairs, and high tops but you will have to provide all linens and additional decorations (though the venue is so beautiful you hardly need to decorate anything beyond centerpieces). I highly recommend Lippitt House for any events!"
