I really enjoyed this tour - but for the non traditional reasons. The history and significance of the location is intriguing and engaging. But I was having (personal) flashbacks to my grandmother's home while touring this house. I couldn't shake the sense of familiarity and all of the triggering memories it raised. The old basin sinks, the cozy rooms, the neat and tidy arrangements. I was fascinated and enthralled. The grounds are lovely and you could stroll for hours around the property.

Great way to spend a few hours in Gettysburg. The shuttle bus was clean and comfortable with a friendly driver. Our tour guides were both very knowledgeable about all aspects of the property and fun facts about the sites history.

Truly one of the best National Park units there is! This property, which belonged to US President Eisenhower, is absolutely stunning, filled both with historical items and culture of one of America's Presidents. Upon arriving (must pay upwards of $9 per person to take a bus from Gettysburg Visitor Center due to no parking on the premises) you'll be given a brief talk about this history and nature of this specific park. After entering the house, a knowledgable individual will talk about the significance of what artifacts lie within the room (see pictures for what that entails). After that talk, visitors are set free to walk around the massive property (minus one star because visitors only have an hour and a half to tour the entire complex, otherwise they have to wait a few more hours for the next bus to arrive). The property is, like I said, massive! It's full of beautiful buildings and farming equipment, enough to keep almost anyone entertained and intrigued their entire time at the park. Overall, this is a definite must-visit!

I'm glad we decided to take a tour of this house. You have to buy your tickets at the historical center. They are time stamped and you take a bus to see the property. They do guided tours of the house and they give you quite a bit of history. After you see the house, walk around the property and look at everything. We enjoyed our visit to the Eisenhower house. The staff was friendly.
