This home was built above the city with a commanding view and high enough to catch the breeze to keep it cool. Sitting on the porch with a cool drink in the evening must of been like sitting in heaven. More

Great old house. Our tour guide was interesting and funny. The house has many pieces of antique furniture. It also helps you piece together a bit about St. Thomas' past. Unfortunately, our tour was really more about furniture than anything else, and it was a little long for a five room house. More

This was an interesting stop on our recent tour of St. Thomas. There was a lady there telling stories about the family that lived in the house in the 1800s. Very enjoyable. More
