Amazing how far advanced the brothers were when building this mansion, considering the era.

Briefly, 2 brothers married 2 sisters and they had a duplex built with the sides linked by a common room. If only it was that simple. Each side of the duplex is 6000 sq. ft. with a 1000 sq. ft. common room creating a 13000 sq. ft. architect-designed mansion, We had an excellent tour guide who spent over 1 hour...

We were in Flagstaff in April and it snowed. We decided not to go to the Grand Canyon that day. We visited the Riordan House. The docent was very well informed. The house was unique.

A good tour- especially if you like design, Stickley furniture, and are interested in history. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we did not feel rushed when checking out the furniture, wallpaper,and other features. Background on the early economic development of the area was interesting. A popular tour at 2 PM.

It is a nice facility but the tour was disappointing. The house is wonderful, decorated for it's period with all authentic pieces but the minute the guide stops talking, you're rushed along not being able to stop and look at anything.

The Riordan Mansion State Park in Flagstaff AZ is a wonderful way to spend an hour or so while visiting the area. We have toured the mansion several times over the years. Each time we learn something new (depending on the guide and their specialty). The Riordan Mansion was built in 1903 and was designed by the same architect that...
