Very much a sense of depth in history, in that magical way only being starstruck can give you. Being there makes you feel like you somehow own a little piece, that you could belong there.

Well worth the tour. We learned alot about President Jackson and his beloved wife. He was truly a gracious host in his TN home.

Beautiful home. Great hostess. Ms. Debra Bryant invited us to walk through the home and allowed us to view all rooms. Pimento and cheese sandwiches were the best. Tuna sandwiches are second to none. Homemade for sure. Chocolate chip cookies, oh my goodness.

I’ve been there several times in my life. First time as a brownie to tour it. I’ve had teas there. This year I went with the Republican Women for a tea. The home is beautiful!!! So glad our Governor and First Lady get to call it home.

We showed up for the 9:30 tour and found we were the only two there. Our guide, Becky, was warm, inviting and very knowledgeable. The mansion itself is beautifully restored and the period appropriate furnishings are meticulously maintained. The tour was free. Definitely a worthwhile hour spent.

Guy that lives here is a real jerk. I don’t know what his deal is but he’s super offensive and seems to hate anyone not of his own race or sexual orientation. Would not recommend. Building and yard is very pretty. But current tenant is just awful.

I think i probably passed there on the street. Ive heard theres tours but I doubt it. I would assume if their were most schools would take their kids. Most people i see around there are usually outside the gates taking pictures for posterity or photography classes.
