It's a wonderful experience to be driving thru a normal Urban neighborhood by today's standards, just to find a normal house that's nothing out of ordinary on that block, until you see the signage posted on the property. That in itself, is the most refreshing feeling one can experience about this visit. The house was closed, being of season, but no regrets, as it was a beautiful sunny day with just a few neighbors walking by, made this stop a memorable one.

My wife and I did a walkthrough. Being from the Dallas area and just miles away from the site of JFK's assassination, I felt compelled to visit the home where this great man was born. Although we did a self-guided tour, there were historians placed throughout the house to give us a more detailed explanation of what we were seeing.

Great piece of history. The Kennedy house is well maintained in its original form according to Rose Kennedy's memories. The tour guide was also friendly. There is also a gift shop, a modern toilet, and lockers to store your luggage (you need to ask staff for the keys). Entry is free and is 100% worth it.

A hidden gem! The JFK historic site is one of the most underrated national parks. The location is accessible, the staff are welcoming, and the site is inspiring - a humble monument to a great American leader. Makes for a great date spot with the excellent ice cream and bagel shops located nearby.

Its a cute little house where JFK was born! No entry fees and they offer tours ( open may end- oct ). The rangers are super friendly and will answer all your questions, it wont take more than 30-40 minutes for the whole tour, enjoy!

Fantastic building filled with memories and facts about not only JFK himself but also his family. The staff are very knowledgable and are able to answer any questions about all this relative. I would recommend a visit here.
