The guides are volunteers, so hate to be critical, but the one we had was unprofessional and seemed like a lot of the snipits of stories were untrue after I researched online. Listened to the other tour guide while walking around the home who seemed to have much more credible stories and professional approach. Its not in a good area and we were also approached by a homeless woman asking for money while we were looking at the front of the home and the historical sign.

Important part our nations history was started here.

The 2 docents were excellent, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. My husband says it was enjoyable.

Excellent presentation. I learned so much about Harriet Beecher Stowe. I encourage everyone to visit.

A piece of history right here. I dont know how many times I passed this house not knowing what it represented.It is in the process of being restored and you see the work in progress.

Great spot to discover some history. Check out those events online!

Cool home if you’re interested in visiting where Harriet Beecher Stowe lived for a good amount of time. She didn’t write Uncle Toms Cabin here but the museum/ wonderful staff does a great job of portraying history of life during that time.

What a gem! Stopped in on a gloomy Saturday afternoon and the gentleman working today literally gave me a personal guided tour! Walked me through the families entire life, relocation to Cincinnati and how this impacted Harriet’s book Uncle Toms Cabin. Although a lot of his commentary was also documented on panels you can read in each room, I found it so kind that the tour was even offered! Definitely recommend for anyone to go, as we have to support the preservation of sites like this!!

The Harriet Beecher Stowe House has an important story to tell about racism, slavery, boundaries, and attitudes. Harriets father was president of a religious school. Students had different responses to slavery and the underground rail road. Guides do an excellent job of explaining. They also show architectural details of the house revealed thru renovation and research.

We were passing through Cincinnati and decided to see a few places while we were there. We arrived after they were closed for the day but we were still able to see and photograph them. It looks like her house has been well preserved. It wasnt in the greatest neighborhood and there were beer cans and bottles in paper bags strewn on the sidewalks. Its unfortunate that the residents dont care more about their city.

Very informative, will visit again.

Learned a lot - style of tour is conversational and reflects on both past and present issues in todays society - 100% recommend

Wonderful docent gave us a great tour! Will definitely recommend to others! Thank you!

Very interesting and knowledgeable tour guide. House itself will be better in a few years.

So much to learn. Such an amazing woman and family.

Great discussion and film. Excellent tour guides. Just not handicapped accessible.

Open to public Thursday to Sunday this is a local gem. Learn about the Beecher family and how Harriet came to write the famous novel that helped end slavery in the United States.

Great experience visiting this house on a Saturday morning and learning about its history. The guides were very helpful explaining things to us during the tour.

Interesting literary house museum in the Walnut Hills neighborhood. The local community has a cool history as well.

I long to see this house up close one day.

Living history and edutainment. Great group of volunteers, very knowledgeable about the author and her place in history. Current renovation is fascinating. Also great community partners.

“Historic Home”Harriet Beecher Stowe was the first female superstar author. Her family moved here when her father became president of Lane College. He was a preacher and educator. She taught in her sisters school

This is a hidden gem of the area. If you like history and/or literature you should definitely stop by this place.
