We loved the tour of the big main house parking is street parking but at least it is free & my only issues is that we had someone appoarch us as we were going into the main house with his privates uncovered that made my sister jumpy the rest of our tour no fault to them clearly. This attraction is very well done I wish some of the houses that had business in them were open for tour & done up in the time frame not all of them but one or two. But overall well done they do have bathrooms and maps for you to know what's open. If you have the time def try to stop in when they give a tour of the main house that's worth it too.
This is such a greatly preserved place! Start at Lucas Tavern which is at 310 N Hull St - here you purchase tickets. Two blocks of historical buildings full of artifacts and information! They have a school, a church, old newspaper presses and even a completely preserved cotton gin!!! We have traveled most of the South and this is the only one we have seen. It is so cool!!!
Place was great. Very interactive and it's so well maintained. The idea of walking around into these places/ buildings is so much better than seeing pictures on a wall.
The playground is also great and big enough to let the kids run around awhile. One of the best kids playground I've ever seen!
Beautiful place! The staff were wonderful, especially Ms. Margaret, who took us on the tour of the Ordeman House. She was so knowledgeable about the mansion, a wealth of information and she made it interesting for the kids. It was amazing to see such well preserved buildings and artifacts.
