"Kudos to our tour guide Jan! We thoroughly enjoyed the visit and her expertise in the knowledge of this estate and of the Ramsey family. There's a seniors discount and with it, I can promise you that you won't find a better way to spend $8 anywhere!"

"Ramsey House is a beautiful and interesting place to visit. They have a functioning blacksmith shop, visitors center, and spacious property. The home was where the historian JG M Ramsey lived and is a well maintained historic building that shows how people lived during the pioneer years of Tennessee."

"A lovely historic house visit about an important Tennessee family. The guide was lovely, teaching us many cute things about the family. The grounds are lovely as well. I hope that as time goes on they will add more detail about the lives of the people who were enslaved in the house, such as names, because the household was only able to thrive because of the labor of the enslaved people. Also they were part of the household story and deserve as much mention as the Ramseys, perhaps more since they could not profit from their own labor or residence. I am gladdened that a lot more historic homes are engaging with this history, because it is not cute and charming but important."

"My best friend and I went for a tour one morning and it was GREAT! The tour guide was fantastic! She was full of knowledge and was happy to answer any questions we had. She wasn't boring at all and really kept our attention. She even told us about the ghosts. The grounds were kept beautifully. Such a great experience. Everything was furnished according to the time period and I literally felt as if I were back in time. Loved it!!"

"This place is really cool. The structure of the home is beautifully simplistic and we'll kept. The preservation committee has done well with the restoration. The history of the home is interesting. Location is off the beaten path. Good place to visit with family or solo. It was in my list of haunted places, although I saw no spirits. Still worth checking out."
