Near Chillicothe Ohio a great place to visit, admission is very modest, with children and senior discounts. Visa,Mastercard, and Discover are accepted. A nice gift shop and at the time of our visit even had some vegetables from the grounds garden for sell.No picturea are allowed inside the mansion and they do ask you silence your phones please.Home was air conditioned and was very comfortable. Our tour guide was very informative and was more than happy to answer questions. Strictly no touch of anything in the home.The grounds are fair game for pictures and the large gardens provide plenty of opportunities for taking pictures.A half day could be spent here easily and they do also have a museum inside rhe welcome center that you should definitely walk through.We actually learned a lot from our tour and we are very happy we stopped by.

Loved our visit! Here is some important information to make your visit go as well as possible.1. Wear good walking shoes. Youll be doing a lot of it.2. $10 per adult to get in. (2019)3. You can take a self guided voice tour of the grounds. Youll need to download the free Uniguide app for your cell phone.4. Sadly, no pictures in the mansion. Thats a shame because if they allowed people to take a post pics, theyd probably get more traffic.5. Bring water and snacks or a picnic lunch. The neartest restaurant (Subway) is 5 mintues away.6. You check in at the interpretive center and then walk to the mansion. There is only handicap parking close to the mansion.

Well maintained historical place. Ohio History connection organization kept this mansion very well. So many old artifacts you can find there. Our tour guide lady was so good she shared all the information about the Mansion and Thomas Worthington and his family.

Lots to see. About 3 hours or more to see everything. Mansion has stairs, bottom part of Mansion is wheelchair accessible.

Interesting historical site and pleasant place to walk around to see the scenery

For a place built in 1807, this home is in amazingly good condition. Seeing the home of Ohios first US Senator is worth the trip. The tour guide gave us lots of historical perspective.

We were at Adena Mansion today for a wreath workshop. This is our third year in a row and we love it! They supply everything you need, ribbons, hot glue gun and a huge selection of dried and fresh gatherings/plants from their grounds. The staff is great! Well be back next year!

Spent the day here. We loved it.

Beautiful home, gardens and land. A perfect place to take a walk.

Wonderful historical events, period dress, informative, educational and friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Amazing history. A must see.

A great piece of Ohio and American History! The guide was extremely knowledgeable of everything and answered everything. Worth the time.

I highly recommend this site. The docent was VERY knowledgeable. Beautiful grounds to walk with your family.

Very interesting place

Beautiful historic house and grounds that dates to the early 1800s. House is well preserved with period furniture. Tour guides are excellent and give a lot of interesting information on Thomas Worthington, one of Ohios founding fathers, and his interactions with many important figures of the time like William Henry Harrison and Tecumseh. A very nice interactive museum is on the campus and the grounds are perfect for a picnic. A great day trip for the whole family.

Very nicely done mansion tour. The gardens are nice if a bit overgrown but the trails and labels of different buildings are good. The museum is well done and informative. Im not from Ohio but its always interesting to learn some history. Well worth a visit by anyone.

Museum is very good. House is also really cool; the pacing of the tour is a little bit on the slow side. Grounds involve a fair amount of walking. Strollers are permitted in the museum and on the grounds, but not inside the house. Price is a little steep for an individual attraction; well worth a stop if it is covered by a membership (such as Ohio History Connection).

Christmas at the Mansion is pan event you dont want to miss. They have horse and buggy rides and crafts for the kids, hot apple cider, cookies plus the tour of the Mansion. dont miss the tenant house! its cozy and warm! As a volunteer there, I highly recommend it to anyone. Also if youd like to become a volunteer, do it. Lots of fun times and great people!!

Little known stop. Home of the great seal.

Cool place! Well maintained and good guide through the mansion.

Beautiful views! Love museum and touring this historic mansion!

It was a beautiful place to have family pictures taken.

Were told they have carts for us to wheel for us having walking disabilities.... N we show up asking about it n they tell us its 4 STAFF ONLY...... So being told this some of us stayed behind.... N the others walked their butts off..... Lol. That place is very very cool n huge spread out all over 300 acres !!!!! Its 8 bucks a tour wrist band... N not allowed to bring ANY SORT OF DRINKS INTO THE PROPERTIES N NOR THE VERY COOL MUSEUM EITHER.... theres 1 lil slow but cold outside water fountain for the public... NO ONE WAS / IS ALLOWED CUPS OR BOTTLES OF ANY LIQUID INSIDE ANY WHERE..... NO EVEN CHEWING GUM !!! U better believe it n the staff is very strict on all rules .. not so fun outside when its 90 plus ...........our church group was there today ( 7/12/19 )

Very neat place if you like history

House of Thomas Worthington who was early Ohio settler and governor. Large house, good tour extensive grounds. Combined with local Hopewell and Adena sites a great day or overnight trip.

Attended the father daughter tea party event, it was a great time!

I will definitely be going back and take some more Fall pictures

Amazing execution for historical site. $10 admission was worth it. Historically honest renovation. Amazing decent.

I very much enjoyed seeing the estate. Our tour guide, Cheryl, was fabulous. The museum was interesting.

I had a wonderful time! I toured the Mansion and grounds and the Museum. It was nice.

Nice grounds and area. Secluded from the town and surrounding area, it has a great view to the east of the hills.

Ive been here 4 times and i never got bored! It is a very interesting place and the gift shop is cool.

Nice place to go see and take kids

Great tour, lots of information. Cathy really knew the history of the life of Thomas Worthington

Nice place to visit

Fabulous architecture at the historically significant home of Thomas Worthington, father of Ohio Statehood. Hampered by management with an inadequate grasp of hospitality. Admission charged, even to simply visit the grounds to view the exterior.

Beautiful gardens and mansion, the museum is nice and focused on interactive learning. When I was there, the house was closed for a wedding. Admission fees are fairly high.

Fantastic visit to mansion and visitor center. Learned alot of history. Will be back.

I have been driving by the signs for this gem for years and finally stopped! Had a great time.

Excellent tour great story about the Worthingtons.

Lovely venue for my nieces wedding and reception.

Neat grounds

Im scared of this place

Historical beautiful

Very fascinating and nice garden

Very educational and the docent at the museum was very knowledgeable.

The tour was very interesting and enjoyable. It was a wonderful experience!

The tour was informative and inside was air conditioned. There are stairs that can be rough if not mobile.

Tour guide was wonderful, Very knowable, of the history and the family lived there, lots of walking, historical home is Not wheelchair accessible,

We went to find the geocache, and it was not out or it was gone. It was to expensive, I had 7 kids and me only 2 are under 5 so it would of been $55 to visit pictures of a governor house

Had a great time.

Very nice..beautiful landscapes..a must see

Who knew? Informative, great docent Cathy.

Very nice place to visit. Beautiful weather.

10$ a person just to walk on the property it was gorgeous however.
