Reviews of Ball-Eddleman-Mc Farland-House
"I used the building as a backdrop for Halloween photos so did not actually see inside. Very impressive home."
"Agree with below review, you can only view main floor. Price is a bit steep for what you see, although the money is going to a good cause."
"The house, what we saw of it, was beautiful. Woodwork is gorgeous. Only viewed 5 rooms on first floor for $15. No bedrooms, no second floor, no service rooms. These areas are office spaces now. Furnishings not original to the home except a bench by the front door which is beautiful. The home and our guide 5 stars. Amount of rooms to view and the price have this the 3 star rating."
"Though currently closed due to Covid, the house is gorgeous from the outside."
"I got married here in 2014. The location was absolutely beautiful and when I first went to view the location to lock everything in, Ms. Stadler was so inviting and welcoming that we just knew it would be well worth it, or so we thought. The day of the wedding there were two other ladies who were there to oversee everything instead of Ms. Stadler, which we were completely fine with. These two ladies pretended to be extremely nice to my husband and I however, they were not so nice to my guest. I had the location rented out until 6:30, or at least that it what was paid for and agreed to. However, the two ladies that were on location that day made my guest feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome by following them around throughout the venue, not to mention my Maid of Honor overheard them(the two staff members on location) saying "it's like a zoo in here" as well as began telling my videographer, dj, and photographer around 4pm that it was time to start wrapping things up. I did not appreciate this, it was unprofessional. While the Home is absolutely stunning, the "staff" not so much. I would not recommend. I only gave 2 stars because of the interaction with Ms. Stadler, everything else was a complete waste."
