Edgewood Historical Society — Attraction in Edgewood

I was worried about going since a previous review stated they're only open on Weds. Not true, they're open Thu-Sat from 9a-12p. Check the website.

The museum is quite large, but don't reply on review photos for an accurate representation, you have to see it in person. Photos don't do it justice.

Admission is $5 per person for a guided tour if you want to be able to go inside any of the buildings. If you don't want a guided tour you'll only be able to walk around the outside of the buildings.

I've been to a few museums like this, and this is the only one that didn't let us walk around at our own pace and explore both inside and outside of the buildings, so that was disappointing & the reason for 4 stars.

Mind you my photographer was on a strict timeline since we only had her a short amount of time. There are many things that can ruin your wedding day and this is certainly one of them. We expected to use the historical buildings to capture beautiful photos of my wedding party. The following week I left a review on Facebook and I was contacted asking me if I wanted to reschedule.. seriously? It was my wedding day. Not senior pictures! Then Linda finally returns my phone call asking the same thing.. definitely not impressed at all. If anyone books to have pictures taken here, be sure to have a...

This place gives me LIFE! There was a lady Ms Betty that used to run it she kept that place up and looking in tip top condition. So neat to see all these old businesses and homes the way they originally would have been. Love going here every year....
