Great little historic building. Well preserved and interpreted. You can even stay for a scone and tea.

Really enjoyed the first Games Night!

Vernette Wheeler

A simple afternoon tea. Scones with jam and cream and teas of your choice. Butter was a bit scimpy. Lovely patio and relaxing atmosphere.

It's okay. The place is beautiful outside, lots of flowers and butterflies. The house is gorgeous. Service was alright, a little standoffish. The scones were burnt on the bottom (just a bit) but for $10 a person, can't complain much. I suggest getting the tour of the museum to make the most of your visit.

Very friendly servers, very accommodating.

Tess Flagler

I loved this museum! The guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and the tour was like delving into the past. Very affordable too for an hour or two of entertainment!

Ryan Wichers

The tour was really interesting!

Jim Wright

Went for the Scottish Tea service on the patio and thoroughly enjoyed it. Fresh scones and oatcakes were delicious and came with a variety of jellies, cream, and butter plus a beverage - I had a pot of tea in a cozy all to myself. Incredibly, you get a free guided tour of the home included. Tea is $10 and a tour alone would have been $5. Guides really knew the history of the home, its many occupants, and the restoration thoroughly. Fascinating connection with Sir Sanford Fleming, too. Amazing value and so much fun. Highly recommended!

Welcoming staff and a beautiful home and grounds.

Lovely afternoon tea with scones was served by staff dressed in period costume. Several jams were offered. The rhubarb/ginger was delicious. Strawberry and peach were also available. We were warmly greeted with COVID protocols present but not dampening to the spirit. Though the weather was unsettled to begin, we were encouraged by the balcony overhang which ensured we would not get wet, and while we were there the sun came out, dappling through the beautiful mature trees preserved around the patio, that provided a screen between the "historic" setting and the "modern" world beyond. A delightful time was had by all four around our table.

This place is not expensive ($10/person) And that includes a scone and tea (or other drink such as lemonade or iced tea)... And a tour of the small museum that seems much more organized than most museums! This place is a must for anyone interested in local history! Anyone able to help with funding for this place (as it is a non profit) please contact them about it
