Tour times don't seem to be specified anywhere, but when we randomly stopped in early on a Saturday afternoon, we only had to wait 10 minutes or so. We were 2 of just 5 on tour, so nicely intimate. The starting point is the parking and building across the street from the house. We were told not to sit anywhere or touch anything, A bit of a downer for someone like me who is constantly leaning or sitting, but the tour is not particularly long, and the house did have a/c installed by the original owners, so it's not uncomfortable. Fascinating smaller example of a FLW style house.

Beautiful 200 year old house and wonderful tour guide helps capture a glimpse into the life Keller had not only at Ivy Green but on her adventures later in life to over 35 countries. Definitely worth a visit to see and one we will definitely not forget.

There is all kinds of music memorabilia from every known artist from Alabama and there are a lot of them! There is a lot to see here. Plan on 1-2 hours depending upon your level of interest. Of course there is a gift shop but the prices weren't too bad and I was able to get some tee shirts on sale. The gentleman working there was super friendly and chatted with us for awhile. Definitely worth a visit!

A beautiful Georgian-style building which was incorporated into present day Deshler High School,…read morethe William Winston home is stunning from the outside. Alas, with school out and it being a Saturday, I couldn't see the inside. I won't say too much more as I have included the plaque in my photos. But I will mention there have been ghost sightings here over the years allegedly of a woman who fell from the Widows Walk.

We were just traveling thru after visiting the Helen Keller house and grounds and happened to find this park. Glad we did.

The park was quite busy on my day there. It was a particularly beautiful Tursday afternoon and people were just enjoying being alive and spending time in this beautiful park. Large trees kept the sun at bay in places, plus provided a beautiful contrast to walking through nature's landscape, walking between brilliant sunshine and the serene calmness of a step in the shadows. I sit in a little picnic area as I write this, enjoying not only the scenery that surrounds me and the calming sound of the waterfall, but the calmness that this park evoked within me, a realization how brilliant the gift of life truly is.
