My tour guide was the owner, Juan, who has owned the Mansion since 2010. Juan is friendly and very knowledgeable about the interesting history of Rockcliffe. Although the exterior could use a coat of paint, the interior is beautiful, and to me, priceless because so much of it is original to the house. There are chandeliers powered by electricity or...

I am so glad we decided to take the "scenic" drive home. This home is breathtaking even in it's current state of renovation. The owner/caretaker was our tour guide and really set the scene in your mind of the family and the history of the home. A MUST SEE if you are in the Hannibal area. $15 for the tour... More

Built in 1898-1900, this historic mansion sits high on a hill overlooking downtown Hannibal and the Mississippi River, about a five minute drive from Main Street. It is decorated with period furniture, much of it original to the house, and has many interesting historical fixtures. The first owner wasn't confident that electricity would last, so he had all of the... More

The mansion is stunning! You will feel you are stepping back in time when you take the tour. It is a must see when you are in town! We've been there 4 times and keep returning each year.

An old mansion ought to be about the stories of the people who lived there and this tour does not disappoint. Fascinating albeit a bit pricey.

My boyfriend and I went to Hannibal for our anniversary and seeing as I love history we had to visit this estate. We were the only ones on the tour, but none the less the host was excellent in showing us the house!! I will be back to stay for the bed and breakfast. What fascinated me most was how... More

Since Mary lived there she knows all the stories and ghost stories of the home. The knowledge that Mary has of the home and the furnishings are great. Ask Mary to share some of her stories while she lived there.

This is a spooky place to visit, although it is not a ghost tour by any means. Beautifully preserved, I am glad it was not torn down as originally planned before the community got together and saved it.
