"Beautiful time capsule of a house."
"Absolute pleasure from start to finish. Both Brenda and husband Wayne delivered very informative and insightful details on the home and family. Wayne has a tremendous knowledge of the Civil War and it’s impact on Macon. Both were very receptive to answering questions in a very friendly manner. We wound up spending well over an hour with these delightful hosts and in the gift shop. For some reason we didn’t get to the kitchen ( which is ALWAYS of great interest to me ) or the Servants quarters. We’d definitely return for another tour tho. Fascinating- and odd that there are NO artists renderings or photos of Judge Holt."
"I cannot recommend this enough! Absolutely beautiful inside and our, cared for and loved by all the people involved. Interesting story as to why it's called the Cannonball house that I will let you go find the answer for. They have a great museum, furniture and original to Macon items including the cannon in the front yard! PLEASE visit and support this home!"
"Such an amazing house! I got lucky and was the only person on the tour and it really did feel like a private tour. I believe my guide's name was Lizzie and she was super knowledgeable. The kitchen house is still intact and was included in the tour. Definitely a must-see!"
"Such an absolute beautiful experience! Thank you for your hospitality and sharing such amazing history! This is definitely a must see and experience!"
