Take a step through the door to the museum and you will be back in the early 1890's. The home will give you an idea of what life was like back then.

This is a great place to take kids. They can see century-old artifacts and even visit the shop featuring old-fashioned candies, gifts, decor, soda and historical books. The museum offers guided tours, private bookings, and birthday parties. Children's parties are inexpensive, and include old fashioned party games and activities. The museum is staffed by volunteers, so hours are limited. Those who wish to visit outside of operating hours can call for an appointment.
