It was such a great and informative tour. We went on a very hot and humid day, and the house was very cool inside. When we walked in, we thought they had updated it with air conditioning, but we're told the coolness was because of the limestone walls. If you are into history or local history, I definitely recommend going and doing the tour. They have a lot of neat things that have been saved over the years from family members that are in the museum. The first pop-up toaster was invented by a man from Stillwater! We had a lot of fun, even our young daughter enjoyed it.

If you are in Stillwater this museum is a must see. The tour takes about an hour, and the guides are very good on introduce you to the atmosphere of the period. They tell you stories about prison inmates, about the families that lived there, and in perfect Victorian style ghost stories. The entrance is 5 dollars (1 for children).

Exceptionally low priced, especially for a full guided tour, an overall excellent experience and learning trip. If you're in the area I definitely recommend it. Also, the house is said to be haunted but I made it through ghost free so if you're into the paranormal then it might be up your ally. 5/5 experience.

Just my wife and I were the only ones in our group and we went for a visit on our anniversary. Call me strange but it's true, I always get a heavy feeling in my chest when I'm not alone. On this day Upon going up the stairs I clearly heared a female voice say "welcome". I looked at our tour guide and then back at my wife. I asked if we were the only three there which our guide stated "yes, why?" My wife knew, this wasn't the first time this has happened to me. Entering the infirmary I had a very HEAVY feeling in my chest and had to leave. I believe this house is very haunted by a female spirit and later found out there is a female spirit still around the house. I think if you get into the paranormal activity, this is a good...

Fanatic historical gem in Stillwater. I love how it embraces different parts of history around the period, including haunted stories, a recent trunk show with period dresses, war time artifacts along with the building history itself.

Parking can be a challenge, but well worth an extremely reasonable $5 tour price. The last tour is at 4pm. I wish we had more time in each room as there is so much to look at. If you’re with a group with more than 5 it can be a bit crowded in each room.

Some of the rooms change with different exhibits, and I would be interested in a return visit to get to see more.

The director is fantastic and you really...
