It was a great place and Dave who showed us around was really Nice and helpful
Took a tour of the historic area and buildings. Amazing tour and historical restorations. Addition buildings put in place by the famous Barn Work Builders are on site and are a great fit having used old and reclaimed wood and wood from the Jackson's Mill campus. Additional buildings on the site are also well maintained and excellent learning spaces for the group of children who were there for an Invitational. Worth the stop just for the historical area.
I was there when nothing was going on.It's a quiet place the buildings are starting to show their age. But there's a lot of history there. Would probably be more interesting when the activities are in full swing
A wonderful place. Great staff. Great facilities. Well maintained and always a delight. Early morning sunrises with a valley filled with smoky fog makes you feel as if this is a timeless experience or perhaps the set for a movie involving history of the Americas. Absolutely delightful. A refreshing stay.
A really nice place to explore history. Just a great scenic drive and a neat place to visit.
