Not a lot to see but worth a visit nonetheless. Had no idea Mitchell led such an interesting life! Parking is free and right across the street. Staff was very nice and helpful and it is close to several nice places to eat. Was glad I went and would warmly recommend it to all true Mitchell fans.

Not a fan of either the book or the film, so there wasn't much to enjoy about this particular attraction, it's basically just a replica of the room she lived in and a lot about the actors from the film. On the plus side, the tickets are included in the price of the Atlanta History Center, so you're not out anything if you think you might want to check it out but you're not sure it's going to be worth it for you.

Small quaint museum dedicated to Margaret Mitchell that was her original home. While small it does pack a punch when it comes to the author's history and the Atlanta History Center has done a really good job preserving the house. It's not overly crowded so you can enjoy it a a pace you prefer.

I love Gone with the Wind. And this was a wonderful place to see and learn more not just about the movie and book but about its author also.

My mom's influence. I saw this loooong movie so many times. This was my images of Southern America. Beautiful & strong woman Margaret Mitchell reflects Scarlett O'Hara.
