Thinking about gifting Hearthstone tickets for Father’s Day!

I’m considering getting tickets to the Hearthstone Historic House Museum for my dad this Father’s Day. He’s into history and would love to see the old electrical stuff! Tickets are free, right? Just worried about how long the tour lasts and if it gets crowded on weekends.

Just visited Hearthstone, and it was amazing!

I took my family to the Hearthstone last weekend, and we had such a blast! The house is stunning, especially the original Edison light fixtures. The guide was super knowledgeable too. It was super cool to learn about the history of electricity in the area. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique experience!
