Reviews
"Property is a teaching house. In surprisingly good shape for it's age. You see everything from basement to attic."
"Rarely existing house featuring eighteenth century materials"
"As a smaller, less popular property, open hours for Boardman House are somewhat unusual. Tours are given on the second Saturdays and third Thursdays of the month on the hour at 11:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., and 1:00 p.m., but only during a June through October season. Tours last about 45 minutes, but visitors on early tours are permitted to continue exploring the building during open hours. The tour is standard HNE small house pricing: $10 for adults, $9 for seniors, $5 for students and children, free for HNE members (like me!). As with most historic house museums, the home is not accessible by wheelchair. Steep steps and low lighting make the space difficult to navigate even for young, agile visitors. Proceed with caution and listen to advice from your guide whenever you are in the house. A virtual tour of the house is not available, but images of the house are available onsite."
"Fun fact this place is also a Poke-stop ;)"
