Excellent venue if youre looking for one for a wedding or other event. The owner is very friendly and helpful with helping you with your needs. The grounds are well kept. The museum has a lot of history and its enjoyable for people of all ages.
House is incredible. The history of the Howards and the shipyard is a huge part of Jeffersonvilles history and its always nice to see where the story of where you were raised. The staff was knowledgeable and seemed genuinely happy to answer questions and assist guests.
We had outdoor Port Fulton meeting with Dr. Eric Yazel 3rd Tuesday of Aug. Beautiful place
Had our wedding here in 2009, love this place, it has such a rich history and is beautiful as well. With all the upgrades to the carriage house, its a one stop location for an event!
What a wonderful venue. It is beautiful for weddings and all sorts of events. I was very impressed.
Well worth seeing
Great history behind this place. Beautiful craftsmanship all hand made. The riverboats are awesome.
Beautiful.... we were at the Carriage House which is amazing, nicely decorated great location and private
The history is very interesting. The house is beautiful. The docents are very knowledgeable.
Beautiful history here.
Great place to visit if you have an interest in either steam boats or architecture. Very well preserved house. Highly recommended.
If you love well preserved history then this is for you. Very knowledgeable staff and a very well preserved piece of history from the late 1800s. I highly recommended a visit to this historic work of art. Discounts available for veterans, children and AAA members.
The new Carriage House venue is anazing
It is a very small, very specific museum. The house it is in is absolutely beautiful and is a time capsule of sorts for the Howard family at the height of their wealth. The second floor is dedicated to boats and the river. It wont take long to go through, we did a self guided tour in a little over an hour.
Neat little museum, very nice house with most of the original furnishings. All visits are guided, but $5 for students and kids and $7 for adults, and around a 1.5 hour tour it seems like a very reasonable charge. Better yet, it seems that most visitors go with a personal tour guide not in a group. This is a good way to spend a couple hours, and I would recommend at least doing it once just to check it out.
Great place to have you function at, and see all the history that is there.
It’s a two-for-one: Steamboat museum and historic home tour. 1. All you want to know, and then some, about the steamboat era; 2. Gorgeous Howard family mansion contains many original furnishings. Go! It’s terrific!
Great little museum. Adds so much character to Jeffersonville.
So much history about the Howard Steamboat manufacturing. Highly recommend you check it out. We had such a great time there.
Nice vintage Museum
Went here to bartend a wedding, the place was beautiful & staff was very helpful & friendly
A great place to visit if you like history in this area and i do myself.well worth your time and promise you will learn something interesting!!!
This place is absolutely the coolest and enjoyable for people of all ages. Im happy I got to go.
Very good location for a car show, lots of beautiful cars!
Mansion was a very interesting place to see awesome models of different steamboats and that Howard Steamboat Bilt all rooms and woodworking was just spectacular if youre there it is worth the visit
I loved this place. It is a great place for a gathering of friends and family.
So very worth our effort to get there to enjoy such well preserved beauty from the past!
Kind and knowledgeable staff. Overall just a terrific, homey place to visit.
This is a must see for history buffs!! Worth every penny of the admission charge.
Old Howard house was neat, if you like old houses, and the steamboat museum is quaint
Went here for a baby shower. The facility was beautiful and a great place to host an event like a baby shower, bridal shower, birthday party, etc....
This is a really cool museum. The house is very historic and the steamboat replicas are pretty amazing as well. Its a fair price and we had a good experience here.
The Carriage House at the Howard Steamboat Museum is an awesome space for just about any event. Beautiful outdoor areas even in the winter and the beams and exposed wood look inside is beautiful.
The house is beautiful and interesting. The displays of steamboat history are amazing. But our guide for the tour was horrible. We should have taken the self-guided tour that was an option.
We opted for a guided tour and are very glad we did. There’s a lot of history and memories in that house. We would have missed a lot had it not been for our guide. We learned about a lot of the old steamboats and how they were made.
Another awesome place of history.
The house is beautiful, especially the hand crafted woodwork. The tour guides were amazing! Very knowledgeable and fun!! Well worth the stop.
If you love old mansions, this one is a must see! Woodwork throughout house is absolutely fantastic. Artistic talent that would be hard to recreate. Historical content in house about steamboat industry worth the visit.
Very neat location and building. Very comfortable setting, clean, good parking.
A wonderful museum tour. I learned so much about Steamboats. Tour guide, Kadie, was awesome. I definitely recommend.
This landmark museum is a must see for anyone who happens to be visiting out little river town! There is plenty of information posted to give a rich, detailed story of how Jeffersonville was Born and how we became a hub and builder for and of barges. Visit during the Chataqua festival for a chance to buy goods from many of our local vendors! Its a beautiful museum, very worth stopping by and taking a tour!

Captures an important facet of the settlement and development of America.
This is a wonderful place. Katie was great this was our second time visiting
I hate it place !! They called police officers they get into Clark Memorial hospital !!!
Beautiful area for a reunion, wedding, or a party.
Had been there as a child but, enjoyed it more as an adult. The guide was very informative of the museum. Beautiful architecture.
Went there for a Wedding & Reception. Nice accommodations..
Went as a child on field trips, went back as an adult. Wonderful little museum if youre into history, youll enjoy this place. I assure you. Lots to read and see.
Great tour, very nice balance between self guided and guided.
Very well-done museum with incredibly interesting content and knowledgeable docents! I highly recommend the guided tour.
Totally. Historical
Time travel, its a good place to do it!
Great place, lots of items and history about the area, and ship industry of the past to present. Only bad thing is I know alot about its history and those time periods, and any questions I had for the tour guide, she responded like I was a 4 year old, and felt like she thought I was a moron. All she did during the whole tour is kept repeating the same 3 facts over and over. I think she didnt like that I knew more than her about the place, than she did, and she works there.
Facility was incredible. Food so so
There was a lot of interesting things to see and read. Take the self guided tour not the free guided one.
Just Awesome! Our steamboat heritage should be a focal point for local historians.
Fantastic museum of past history on the Ohio River via Steamboat building and cruising the rivers.
Loved the original family furnishings and Kadie, the docent, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Enjoyed learning more about the history of steamboats.
Cool museum housed in a beautiful 17th century Victorian style mansion
Beatuifully restored
Amazing house, wonderful tour. Love hearing about the history of the family.
Very nice place and great people.
The Howard is a rare Victorian mansion that still houses many of the original furnishings. It Is a worthy house museum, not only a repository of steamboat memorabilia and technology.
Local historic Mansion and apparently the library inside the mansion is haunted.
Newly renovated and nice
Lots of interesting history to discover and beautiful antiques.
Great place for a reunion for sure!!
Pretty place was there for a wedding
Fun place to visit!
Loved it!

Great place for a reception, party, etc.
