Great tour by Michael. He was very informative and provided us great background on the family and area. So nice to have such an enthusiastic young guide. The house, it's contents and the grounds are amazing. Great value and time well spent.

This Plantation is a slice of Southern History. Very interesting cell phone narrative while sitting on antique rocking chairs on the front porch, waiting for the tour to begin. Rachel, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and guided us through the house, presenting the history of the family and plantation life in an expert manner. This was a wonderful and enjoyable experience. Highly recommend this tour.

I enjoy walking around this park. It is located near city hall in Roswell and the downtown historical district. The house is interesting to view and you can walk freely on its grounds. Nice walk before or after dinner.

Well preserved historic building and about 10 additional buildings. They offer both cell phone self guided tours and tour guides.
