Teddy Roosevelt’s assent to President. - Docent was very informative and patient with questions. The mansion is very well kept and artifacts are maintained. There’s a mixture of interactive and static exhibits that presents Teddy Roosevelt’s becoming the President after President McKinley’s assassination at the Pan-American Exposition in 1901.

Monument - Beautiful but we didn’t get to go in after circling the block as they were closing in thirty minutes. We did park and walk around to the front.

Nice Visit - It’s a neat place and great history. Well cared for. We unexpectedly had extra time in the area and got to stop by. We didn’t get to take the tour because it was sold out for the day. If you can plan ahead, definitely do it.
