I came here on a Saturday for the 2pm tour. They have tours twice a day, on most days of the week,…read moreexcluding Sundays. It's advised to call in advance to make a reservation, but there were several walk-ins when I visited and they were easily accommodated. Admission is $7 and includes the tour. The historical site is operated solely by Reverend Paul, a highly knowledgeable steward who had such a passion for honoring and celebrating the life of Harriet Tubman that he quit his job in Washington, DC and moved to Auburn to run this landmark. Paul was a fantastic guide. He checked everyone in at the start of the tour. If you arrive early, you can wander through the visitor center on your own, which has photos and facts about Tubman, her contemporaries, and other relevant details about the Underground Railroad, abolition, the Civil War, and women's suffrage. Once the tour starts, attendees sit while Paul spends about an hour telling Tubman's life story in great detail, from childhood to old age. Paul's talk is thorough, humorous, and wonderfully educational. He asks for audience participation throughout to keep the group engaged. After the talk, we moved to one of the houses on the property that was open to the public and where Tubman actually lived. Paul shared additional details about the history of the abode. It contained furniture pieces to exemplify what might have been inside the home when Tubman lived there. After the tour, attendees were free to walk the grounds, return to the visitor center, or peek inside the other brick home on the property, which was not open for entrance. I would budget about 2 hours for the experience. Great opportunity to learn about Tubman, a remarkable and legendary figure who shaped our nation's history.

The acting and music was great but I could not get past a male playing a lead female role. It just ruined it for me. I felt like I was at a woke college campus playhouse where the players were alphabet soup people parading around. Not sure if I can go see another play again if they are going to be doing this to all the plays. The only way I could honestly rate this is if there were categories to rate separately so I was restricted to giving it a 1-star rating. Again, the acting and music was great, and it was entertaining but I walked out of there wondering what the hell did I just witness? I just don't understand how less than 1% of the population has to ruin everything for the rest of the 99%.

Prices range from very fair to a little expensive, but overall the condition on everything was very good. Not a junk store but rather a curated variety by different vendors. I found many of the items to stick to specific eras/styles. A lot of Victorian, "cottage", Renaissance. A lot of stairs, and I didn't see an elevator. Some off street parking. Staff at the exit were friendly, but maybe a little sparse throughout the entirety of the store. This may be due to the vendor aspect.

Great for families looking for a leisurely stroll throughout the day except their isn't any street lamps to lit the trails at night. So I recommend coming in the morning to early evening hours. Parking is free and easily accessible to the public and great for those needing a jogging path. The actual resevoir is fenced off and close to the public, so there is no swimming, fishing or any other water activities permitted including feeding the wild life in the area. This place ranks as one of my favorite spot to enjoy the view of the city and needing a serene place to escape the stresses of life! :) 2018 Yelp Review #45
