A very nice and interesting little place to visit! My husband and I went and really enjoyed it! They had all kinds of miniature houses all decorated from top to bottom. They were decorated in all different types and styles too. Each house had every little detail you could think of to put in there and they felt like they came alive.

When my family suggested we go here I really didn’t know what to expect. I was amazed to see some incredible handiwork by these artists. It really is a cool experience. If you live locally have to at least check it out once and maybe bring family from out of town. Again I don’t necessarily enjoy building these houses, but it was worthwhile seeing the skill that goes into it.

What a fun place! If you like miniatures or maybe just looking for something different this is the place to go. Very friendly staff and it sits at the beginning of Main Street so you can start your tour there. They have a website with hours and admission prices.

Loved it! Kid friendly (with supervision). I visited with my daughter and granddaughter, who is five years old. She was given a clipboard treasure hunt to fill out while I perused the collection and wallowed in forgotten childhood dreams. At the end of our experience she turned the finished sheet in for a prize and we chose some miniatures, carpets and wallpapers from the museum store to begin her own dollshouse. A wonderful experience.

Why not? How often do you see miniature houses? We stopped by one Saturday afternoon to check it out. It was neat to see all of the different types of doll houses. I had a doll house when I was a kid and it brought back a lot of great memories decorating it. Some of the houses are really fancy.

Lovely experience. My 8 year old enjoyed the Wednesday art program. I made a miniature scarecrow and my son did an abstract painting. The hostess was delightful. There was much to admire and talk about.
