We had such a fun time at the museum! We found several secret doors, screamed with fright in the Halloween room and ooo'd and ahhh'd around every single corner. What a truly one of a kind place and experience! Definitely on the must do list every trip!

As always, it was fun finding secret doors and we especially enjoyed the newest secret door!

I love the O Street Mansion. I had a big birthday celebration for my most recent special birthday and have enjoyed several other activities there. Yesterday was no exception. The book talk was inspiring, the authors engaging, H.H. Leonards friendly and welcoming. All the staff was friendly and helpful. I had not known about Rosa Parks' connection to O St. and was moved by visiting her room and the video that was playing in it. Thank you for all your cultural and socially-relevant gifts!

If you're in the area this is a must see!! We had so SO much fun doing the rock and roll scavenger hunt and looking for the hidden doors! We definitely want to come back. You could go many times and still see something different for sure. Also it is a hotel so you can stay there. A very unique one at that. How fun would it be to stay overnight there!? Although I can't imagine staying more than one night, as it would be too overwhelming for me with the amount of nostalgia each room holds! It's wonderful the collection of items this place holds! From the lobby, bar area, function room to all the guest rooms, every inch of this place is filled with memorabilia - And you can purchase just about everything in the hotel. Great date night idea for all ages! This was a surprise gift experience for my husbands 61st birthday and he wasn't sure what to expect when we first arrived. Then our experience began and we spent an entire afternoon looking for the items on our list and all the doors we could find. We did pretty well - even found the very hidden beautiful wine cellar!! But we did spend 4 hours! Depending on your child: Children may get overwhelmed or not find it interesting as it may feel like going through an antique or consignment store to them - although with that being said searching for the hidden doors which are not easy to always find may keep their interest and find the whole experience FuN for them - I'm sure of that much! We also met the owner's husband who was so kind and had a few stories to tell us. He assured us as well as other staff that if you really needed a hint they would be sure to help you out - but what fun would that be!? Just enjoy the experience!
