"As a native Virginian I have been spoiled by proximity to many historic recreations: Williamsburg, Jamestown, Harpers Ferry, Fredericksburg, et al. Old Salem is not Williamsburg, but then you can't do Williamsburg in a day (well, not easily). We found many of the same kind of shops with interprete..."rs -- all friendly and well-versed in local history. Because of the time of year, we found some locations closed for lunch or simply not open on that day. However, the cost is reasonable and it is a lovely area to simply spend the day checking out. We stayed right in the middle of town at a B&B and ate at dinner at the Tavern in Old Salem. We also went to the Southern Decorative Arts Museum at the visitors center which was a great tour.
Although our fitness level and age prevented us from seeing everything, we did all we wanted or needed to do and thoroughly enjoyed Old Salem.

"Having visited many historical homes, this is a completely different style and feel. The staff was very professional and the house was amazing. Not a long tour. The self guided tour was great with personal audio guides. It tells you a lot about the house and lets you travel at your own pace. "
