Very unique and surprising. The house provide a glimpse into the styles, fashions, and architecture of the Gilded Age. It also provides a unique view of restoration and preservation. I absolutely enjoyed the tour.

Very interesting place that has deep ties to Kernersville. Restorations are still occurring, so it's a work in progress. A nice example of Victorian design. The self guided tour works well.

This is an absolutely fabulous historical house. It was so fun to walk around. The self guided tour was well laid out.

Thoroughly enjoyed my self-paced tour of this amazing house museum. Lots of intriguing details about the house and the family–I even bought the book! There are some challenging steps and narrow spaces to navigate so be forewarned. I do recommend this stop if you’re near Kernersville.

Absolutely worth stopping and checking this place out. The house is beautiful and the staff members are helpful. If you enjoy history, architecture, and/or art, you will have a great time. This is a Victorian house, so be aware that some hallways are very narrow and there are a few low ceilings. We had a wonderful visit and will return.

Such a cool place to visit!
Response from the owner: Thank you for your visit and great review!
Cristina H.
A great experience for kids as well. They have a raccoon paw sign with a scavenger hunt and activities through some of the rooms. Is nice to see and experience how live was in the past. Kids love figuring out how the rooms unfold, a lot of steps and places to hide.
Response from the owner: Cristina - we are so glad you enjoyed Bob's Paw Print Path! Thank you for visiting, and for your great review!

Unique architecture and history make this worth a stop but just be aware it is not wheelchair or stroller ♿ accessible due to all the steps. The new visitor center is quite nice.
