We enjoy Civil War History and we were looking forward to taking advantage of the three sites you can do when purchasing the ticket for all three.

A nice stop, but not if you have issues with steps. Our guide was very good and gave a nice talk. The artifacts are amazing, if you like the Civil War.

Amazing stop if your a history buff or civil war fanatic. The history contained in these walls is amazing! The artifacts are priceless. This is a must see! Small fee is well worth it.

Very historical place and very pretty. They do a great job keeping this historical site looking nice. Sometimes they have re-enactments here and wear costumes of the time. It is a great place to visit.

One should be able to get a feel for Thomas Jackson during the Civil War...a good number of his personal items from his life at that time are on display. The building/headquarters is beautifully, painstakingly preserved...one can almost imagine his tall frame lumbering into the room...

This is a little difficult to find, but its worth the difficulty, Its a beautiful little house but has a bit of a sad story. The lady who gave us the tour was very well informed and delivered an excellent talk which was very educational.
