It was one of the most... - It was one of the most really beautiful Victorian house I have ever been to. This house would be prefect place to do filming on TV about Victorian times. Took over 100 pictures and would love to go back again and tour all over again. Absolutely fall in love with this house and wish I could live in the house and hope they can turns it into guest house so I would stay in this house 😁👍

Guided tours wanted but still liked it. - We enjoy house museums and this one was nice. Used the QR codes for each room which helped to understand what we were seeing.
Would have been nice to have a guided tour even if it was more expensive.

Stunning mansion - Absolutely stunning!! This is one of the few Mansions left on the old millions row Memphis. The lady's that run and care for this beautiful old mansion are informative and take care and pride in this gorgeous building. They are more than happy to answer any questions and give you as much information as you would like. Thank you for a brilliant tour of this amazing home.

Woodruff-Fontaine House a view of upscale Memphis in the 1800's - Went to the Museum as a recommendation from Memphis City Tours.
Rooms were decorated in the style of the mid 1800's and they had mannequins dressed in wedding clothing of the times.
