Docent was well spoken and very knowledgeable. The tour was very informative. I have visited several times over the years and have learned something new each visit. It is a charming place and a must-see for any aspiring architect, interior designer, landscaper or art and crafts era enthusiasts. Or equally enjoyable if you are just after a nice walk. I'll no doubt be back again soon.

Was drawn to the place due to its connection to Back to the Future. How tremendous to see Doc Brown's mansion! The architecture is fascinating. The tour was really great. The guide was well versed and had some great stories. Got to see almost the entire house. Check in at the garage/gift shop next door, wait in line for the bathroom, and head on over to the patio to wait for the tour. Came here Sunday afternoon early March 2026. Tour groups I think are 12 in size. I booked in advance day of (like 2-3 hours prior). Parking was pretty easy right in front. Not a ton of parking but seemed to be sufficient for the relatively small tour groups. Place is in great shape with lots of original furniture and materials.

This National Historic Landmark built in 1908 has amazing articitecture and is also the location for Doc Brown's house in "Back to the Future". A must see if in thr area.

Very, very impressive home, very well preserved. Tour guide was excellent, very well trained and passionate about this Art & Crafts gem. It is rather dark in certain areas, but the guide uses a flash light. The gardens are really special as well. The garage has special design elements as well, and currently used as offices, public rest rooms & staff offices. If you love fine wood working, it’s a must-see! Buy tickets ahead of time.
