Excellent tour, fantastic architecture, antiques galore, and a chance to experience affluent life style of the past!

This is a great outing if you're in the Apalachicola area. A guided walk around the old house brings to life the history of this little port community, from early days to the Civil War and to the present, all through the fascinating experiences of one family.
