This is a great example of the early architecture of the area. The house is jampacked full of iconic pieces of furniture and decor from the era. The story of the house and its occupants is fascinating, and the guides who are positioned around the house are very knowledgeable and helpful. This is a great place to visit to get a feel for the early days of Vancouver.
Beautiful museum! I rented the space for my wedding ceremony and staff was great, they helped us out to be able to organize and were very kind asking us if we needed anything during the event 😭 Communication was clear, I have nothing but good memories in this place! Highly recommended!
An enjoyable visit right in the heart of the city, which transorts you back to the Victorian era! The staff here were very friendly and informative, and happy to help me and my group on a school project. We enjoyed tea and sweets in a 19th century dining room - what more could you want!
This is an amazing house museum. I have been here on the last Sunday of the month, and luckily, on the last Sunday of every month, they have tea and tour. The admission was $15, and they offered one hour long guided tour of the house museum. Ian, one of the staff there, took care of the tea 🫖 and also gave information about the house museum and answered my questions. They had two types of tea - the Bengal spice and the earl gray (house special). Both of them are so tasty! I had one cup of each. They had some wafers and cookies which were also very delicious! Robert led the guided tour and he was a great guide! The tour was so informative. I then went around the house reading through all the information that had about the house. Upstairs, they had a rotating exhibit about German expressionist art. The top floor is not accessible but Robert told us that they think it could have been the bedroom of one of the kids who lived in the house. I had a great time here. I went there around 1 PM (right when the house museum opened) and I stayed until 4 PM (closing time). Three hours was perfect time for me to check out everything in the house museum. They also have two restrooms in the museum located in one of the rooms called the den.
This is an absolutely charming museum showcasing a snapshot of early 20th Century Vancouver. The guides are friendly, enthusiastic, and really happy to show you around. Well worth the visit.
