Roedde House Museum — Attraction in Vancouver

My husband and I came to the concert all the way from Port Moody to see Colin MacDonald and Stefan Hintersteininger. We were looking forward to it, and our friend Vern Daalnik made us reservations to make sure we get in. He personally knows Colin and told me a lot of good things about him. We brought our twin boys as the poster clearly stated " Children welcome". We were nicely greeted by the lady at the door. We got seated and held the children on our laps. The concert started. One of our boys was quiet, the other was very interested in everything and kept pointing at things and asking "what's this?" from time to time. My husband went in the other room with him because the concert has already started and everyone was quiet. After a couple minutes I went with our other son to check on them. That's one a staff member came up to us and said that we need to leave because this concert is not for children, it's very conservative and people came all the way from Richmond (oh my god) to see this. I said that the poster said children were welcome. He said that not children of this age. I said the age was not specified. He kept insisting that bringing kids was inappropriate. I got annoyed, got up and headed toward the door. My husband gathered our belongings. On the way out I asked for our money back. The senior staff member rudely told me to never come back. I told him not to worry because I won't. I went outside and broke in tears. My husband had to go back for a forgotten item and on the way back a big argument happened, with the same person. We left. Never in my life have we been treated so disrespectfully at an event. I'd like to mention that we have brought our children to different events and have always been mindful of other people and taken them out of the room if they happen to get upset or bored. I have been playing principal cello for New Westminster Symphony Orchestra for the last 1.5 years and my kids have attended most concerts. They're always welcomed and sometimes people come up to me after the show and say hi and ask how my twins are doing, and say hi to them as well. I'm very upset and disappointed with the treatment we've received. I'll never come back (that should make somebody happy). Some people just need to pull the stick out of their a$$. Yup, you...

This is an amazing house museum. I have been here on the last Sunday of the month, and luckily, on the last Sunday of every month, they have tea and tour. The admission was $15, and they offered one hour long guided tour of the house museum. Ian, one of the staff there, took care of the tea 🫖 and also gave information about the house museum and answered my questions. They had two types of tea - the Bengal spice and the earl gray (house special). Both of them are so tasty! I had one cup of each. They had some wafers and cookies which were also very delicious! Robert led the guided tour and he was a great guide! The tour was so informative. I then went around the house reading through all the information that had about the house. Upstairs, they had a rotating exhibit about German expressionist art. The top floor is not accessible but Robert told us that they think it could have been the bedroom of one of the kids who lived in the house. I had a great time here. I went there around 1 PM (right when the house museum opened) and I stayed until 4 PM (closing time). Three hours was perfect time for me to check out everything in the house museum. They also have two restrooms in the museum located in one of the rooms...

I visited this place in 2019 and paid $5 for the guided tour along with a few othet visitors. Everything was good except the fact I would never wish to return. I know some people are into this subject, this is one of the places that the spirits still linger. The museum staff may refute. My review is not intended to damage this place's reputation as ghost seems to be a social taboo that has not yet been studied seriously in the scientific way. My energy plus my cell phone battery were drained at one particular spot (I'm not going to name where).

Even though I also have had other feelings at some unexpected places, this was the strongest ghost experience happened to me in daylight. Being a sensitive person, I know this experience won't happen to anyone. So don't feel scared...
