Cool house
We toured this house on Sept. 9, 2021. It was a rainy day and we found that this footed the bill for keeping us dry. It was also an interesting home built by an interesting man. The tour was about an hour or so and the tour guide was very knowledgeable about all the different rooms and how the owner came to design them all. Set right on the Gloucester Bay, would be nice to enjoy on a clear day as well. If you like touring historical houses, don't miss this.

if you have limited time for touring the area, choose this house.
The receptionist and tour guide who guided our family group that included a toddler, who was carried around, were both patient and informative. We learned a wealth if information about the house and it's owner and builder. The house is virtually unchanged from the time it was built. Interiors of some rooms were built from entire rooms taken from older houses. This is really worth the cost and time spent here. People can also eat a picnic lunch on the grounds.
