Ronald Reagan Boyhood Home, Illinois, United States


4.5 (142 reviews) Sunday: Spent Ranking #1 in Dixon Historic Sites

Worthwhile stop

This was a neat stop. There is parking nearby at no cost. You start at the visitor's center with a short film. They have a gift shop there as well as where you purchase tours of the home. The house tour itself was educational. There is only one piece of furniture actually used by Ronald Reagan, a chair, the home is furnished with period pieces. The docent did an excellent job capturing the essence of a young Reagan.

    Loved it!
    Highly recommend touring the Ronald Reagan Boyhood Home. Loved it! Mike was an excellent docent. It was so interesting learning about Reagan's childhood and also hearing humorous stories about his youth and his return visit as an adult.
