A very important piece of history to the Dearborn Detroit area. The grounds are very well maintained and are beautiful. They truly transport you back to Henry and Clara Ford’s time. The architecture of the home is modeled Scottish baronial style and is very unique. It would be great to see the inside of the home, but it is not possible as they have been doing renovations/restorations for a while now. It is 350 acres, and you have the most magnificent view of the River Rouge. Also, if you look around, you will see Mrs. Ford’s rock garden; the new garage being built; and the rose garden!

This has been a FAVORITE place of mine for decades. Quite telling of our times to have so much of the property closed due to renovation. Cést la vie. Still had a GREAT time with my Friend who moved out West years ago. Sarge certainly LOVES his freedom as a Service Dog In Training (SDIT)... Security Patrol tried hating on us and told us "Folks aren't allowed to take dogs into that area..." but we were leaving so I didn't bother to explain... You know what I have to say: "Just smile and wave, Boys! Just smile and wave!" (ADA has got OUR backs!)

This is a hidden gem in Dearborn. Amazing during lilac season , the whole place smells heavenly. The flip side is that they close at 6pm and by 5.50pm, they start going around telling people to wrap up. Early June, the rose garden comes in full bloom. The roses have different kinds of fragrances, this is the first I've noticed so far. There are a variety of summer blooms planted. They have a fern garden too. Very tranquil place to stroll and have a picnic. Tables are provided.

I came out here on a whim. I was a bit disappointed that the house is still closed due to renovations. I moved out of the Dearborn area back in 2018 and I see it's still closed due to renovations, as it was back then. However the gardens are still lovely and the waterfall trail. We saw some wild turkeys here while walking through the gardens which the kids liked. They were the most fascinated by the statues in the garden though. 😆
