What parents say
"They did a great job restoring the house to the way it was in the movie! You can touch all the items in the house, it's almost like you're in the movie! A museum with artifacts is across the street and is very interesting. Tour guide, Chuck, was very informative and gave a great tour! If you like the movie, you gotta check this place out!"

"All time favorite movie from my childhood so I had to visit. The tour of the house is very informative and you learn things even the biggest fan doesn't know. You can use the items in the house as props for pictures too so that's cool. Museum that you visit after the tour across the street where there's a bathroom to use after the tour was nice with a bit more info and pictures to take."
