Loved the phone tour to give us info since there was nobody there. Very well maintained. Just wish you could tour inside too.

Interesting part of history. Especially as I am now reading his biography.

The old farm house was cool. We went when the parks and rec where there (2x per year). They had amazing amount of history to share (which made it way longer than I was looking forward to). You can go anytime of the year, just grab the brochure and call the number to listen to a recorded tour while walking around the outside of the house. Its almost worth making the trip if youre history buff, but kids will be bored out of their minds.

You can visit any time, but the National Park Service does in door tours only twice a year. Great way to spend an hour if you like history. Usually in April during Trumans birthday celebration, and then one Saturday in either September or October for the guided, informational tour. As always, National Park Service staff and volunteers, as well as Grandview Historical Society members were excellent and knowledgeable.

There wasnt a whole lot to see. I dont know if they do tours inside or not. But just walking around outside there wasnt a whole lot to see. It was still cool to go there just wish there was more to do.

Cool seeing the old farmhouse, no tours, self guided info tour you can do on phone, sad to see the massive urbanization surrounding it.

Love it. Hopefully the money will always be there to keep it erect for generations to come. Our history is important!

It was neat but not much to see. You can not go in the house or even look in the windows.

Kinda sad but interesting. There was some disrepair in need of tending, varmint damage. But a neat phone in audio tour brochure was available. And to imagine a sprawling farm where now is a boulevard, mall and China buffet.

I like to come here a lot just to look at the historic bulding. Neat grounds to walk around and explore the past. Also has a gym and 2 pokestops for Pokemon Go.

Got to share in the history of Harry Truman days by visiting on their annual celebration of President Trumans birthday. Lots of docents to lead the way through the home.

Sad remnant of American history. No longer a farm, house sits on a few acres surrounded by low quality commercial development.
