Great American Dollhouse Museum — Attraction in Danville

Charming and Delightfully Unexpected!

I visited the Great American Dollhouse Museum today with my 11 year old son. We had the BEST time! He thought he was going to be bored but he ended up being delighted with all of the details in all of the exhibits as was I! There is a section on American History, a few towns put together with amazing Houses and even a section with Dragons, Trolls and Fairies! I even heard that they will have an 8ft Castle on Display! I can't wait to go back and see it all again so that I can find more details I may have missed the first time! One of the best aspects of the place is that there is a shop where one can buy anything doll house or miniatures related in person! That is so rare!! WORTH the Trip even if you have any kind of interest in hand made things, antiques...

This place was so amazing!!!!! It's was very affordable from ticket price to being able to afford a little somthing from the shop for the kiddos... it is unique and engaging for all ages... I had two adults a impatient 8yr old and a typical moody preteen and they loved it and didn't want to leave.. there was picture eye spy pages available to help keep the little one engaged and a more challenging one with written clues for the older one and so many amazing displays to look at that we somehow stayed lost in a miniature world for 2 or more hours... plus they are still a work in progress which made it to where as we left the girls decided this is somthing they want to do as a ever summer tradition now! 😀 can't wait to see what is...

My husband and I have always been interested in miniature model making and RR exhibits, so decided to stop here to see what they had. It’s a really cool museum. The exhibits are set up very well, making both sides of each house visible. Most of the doll houses were very done well with a lot of attention to detail. Many were themed. Our favorite part was the fantasy area with trolls and a dragon cave. Wish they had more of that kind of thing! We spent our driving time over the next couple days of our road trip talking about the fantasy scene (including a miniature castle, medieval village, and dragon cave) that we’d like to design and make some day.
