Our group of "Red Hat" ladies had an absolutely marvelous time at the Stranahan House. There were delightful things to see, wonderful sounds of long-ago music...it even smelled as if there was an apple pie baking in the oven!. Our Docent was charming, and seemed to know everything about Frank and Ivy and thier lives...as if she had known them... more

I made my way to the Stranahan on a very rainy afternoon. Tours run at 1, 2, and 3 pm, and when I showed up at 1:10 dripping wet from walking 2 blocks from the water taxi stop, I was met by by a friendly tour guide who gave me my own private tour instead of making me wait until... more

I took my 3 sons there for the tour. The tour starts in the office area of the house. The dedicated engaging volunteer guide gave us a verbal history of the Stranahan's and their house and businesses. This took about 45 minutes, and gave us a good feel for Fort Lauderdale when it was just starting, and still part of... more

My husband and I had 7 hours to kill, and we decided to go into Fort Lauderdale. We decided to see the Stranahan House because of its historical importance to Fort Lauderdale. Were we ever glad that we did! We had one of the best house tours ever. It started out sitting in the office and hearing an hour lecture... more

The Stranahan House is quite a jewel. Luckily, we arrived just in time for an informative docent (guided) tour. Highly recommended. Our guide, Bobbie, provided fascinating stories about Ivy Cromartie, Grandmother of Fort Lauderdale. Tours are given on the hour Wednesday-Saturday 10 AM - 3 PM; Sun 1-3 PM. Last tour starts at 3. Tours last about 45-60 min. See... more
