Worth seeing if you are a huge Lincoln fan and are in the area for a couple of days. If you have to choose between this and the Lincoln Presidential Museum though, chose the Lincoln Presidential Museum instead. Onsight parking for $2.00. Tour will take about 45 minutes for everything. more

A cool piece of history. more

I rated the Lincoln Home the way I did because the tour of the house was brief, and for what it was, there wasn't a whole lot to see. If you haven't seen the house before, then I would say it is a must visit, but once you've seen it, I can't see much of a reason to go back... more

The park service has managed to preserve the Lincoln home as well as a four block area around the home so that you can experience it as the Lincoln's would have. The streets are shut down to all traffic but pedestrians so you can wander around from one home to another. The Arnold and Dean homes are just across the... more

After paying $2.00 to park and watching the video at the visitor's center, we headed over to the "gray house with the red fire hydrant", which was the meeting spot for all tours. We waited 10 minutes or so and then our tour guide lead us into the house. We saw all the rooms, took pictures and basically squeezed into... more
