The family tour was an excellent experience for my family. Our guide, Rachael, was kind, patient and very well informed. My children had tons of fun, and unbeknownst to them, learned a lot and were given a lot to think about. Also, the cost was very affordable. Definitely one of the most enjoyable and personal museum experiences we've had!

The tour is not simply a house tour. It is primarily a tour of the impact of "Uncle Tom's Cabin." HBS's time in other parts of the country as well as the rest of her family are also discussed at the appropriate times. The interior of the home isn't nearly as interesting as the Twain House (next door), but they have done an amazing job with the renovations and decorations throughout.

Excellent historical landmark. The guides are very helpful. You will get a deep look into America's dark past of slavery. The ticket counter offers a discount of $3 if you show them your ticket from the more famous Mark Twain museum. This place also has a restroom, so it's helpful for travellers. There are also a number of food joints nearby, a little up the street like Domino's Pizza and some others.

We went on a Sunday and had Chris as a tour guide. Chris was extremely informative and facilitated an excellent discussion. It was a wonderful experience. As a history teacher, I appreciated the socrative style house tour that not only discussed Stowe's life but connected to current events of today.

stay away from this place. it is mostly pc nonsense and very little about harriet beecher stowe. be prepared for expressing your "feelings" with pencils at the end of the tour. waste of time, money (private and public) to support it.
