Reviews
"The museum had a nice blend of exhibits from the first floor which showcased the house with 1900s decor to the second floor showcasing local history to the third floor which had multiple kid friendly exhibits that are still interesting for adults."
"Basically it’s a house of a millionaire of 1880 or so. His living style is the main attraction. They added a few section in the third floor for the kids and collected some other stuff for the visitors."
"Cool experience! A beautiful historic home with very knowledgeable people sharing the history of the house and of the world. They were efficient in their timing and knew how to usher the kids in an organized from one exhibit to another. There’s a cool dinosaur exhibit."
"It was a very beautiful place to visit. Lots of History within this Museum! Was a little hot and the air wasn't working when we visited but it was well worth it the tour was amazing!"
"You won't regret this stop. The house the museum is in is absolutely gorgeous, filled with oak and birch woodwork. Many of the windows are original curved glass. The exhibits are interesting and the third floor is great for curious kids."
