Well worth a stop, even a detour to visit, if you have even the slightest interest in Wright. More…read morea beautiful, and important, work of art than a house. Tour times don't seem to be specified anywhere, but when we randomly stopped in early on a Saturday afternoon, we only had to wait 10 minutes or so. We were 2 of just 5 on tour, so nicely intimate. The starting point is the parking and building across the street from the house. We were told not to sit anywhere or touch anything, A bit of a downer for someone like me who is constantly leaning or sitting, but the tour is not particularly long, and the house did have a/c installed by the original owners, so it's not uncomfortable. Fascinating smaller example of a FLW style house.

This site is a bit out of the way but we visited from Nashville. The house is set up in a beautiful flow to tell the story of a great American hero. This story of overcoming adversity will speak to anyone. The technological ease and accessibility could use some updating. The 'museum room' is a bit cluttered and the preservation of some of the preservation of the artifacts will make you cringe a little bit. But this museum is a labor of love and it is well worth the visit.

Feels more like a wayward home for old toys than an interactive science museum. However it is a great place to host preschool aged birthday parties. If your kids are interested in nature, stroll through Deibert Park next door and take the time to read the signs along the trails. Your older kids will likely get more from it and you'll save yourself the $10 per person admission fee.

Alas, with school out and it being a Saturday, I couldn't see the inside. I won't say too much more as I have included the plaque in my photos.
