TripAdvisor traveler rating: 4 of 5 stars

A step into the past
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 4 of 5 stars

A unique and colorful place to visit while in NYC
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 5 of 5 stars
Loved this place! It doesn't hurt that I'm an antebellum-aphile. But what made it special was seeing all the furnishings that belonged to the family. The exhibit was fascinating, and I read that they...
