Probably not one of the best ways to spend your time in St. George, with so many other things to see and do in and around the city. Not very interesting

Brigham Young was probably one of the first "snowbirders" though he didn't live long enough to spend too many winters here. It is still an opportunity to look at a little piece of Mormon Church president's home & life.

The tour guide gave lots of interesting facts and tidbits about the house and the time period. A beautiful home. The guides are missionaries from the LDS church but they are not pushy, they are very nice and friendly.

Beautifu historicl house and grounds, worth taking the tour. However, if a missionary from another country is leading the tour you may want to wait for the next tour. Our tour was led by a lovely sister missionary from New Zealand. Sad to say she did not know enough about American history or the antiques of the home to give... More

This is a great stop to make while in St. George. It only takes about an hour but is very interesting to hear the stories associated with this Historical Home and with Brigham Young.

I was just killing some time so thought I'd go see this and was pleasantly surprised by how interesting it was. A peak into the past excellently preserved. I was intrigued by the faux wood finishes that Young was fond of and commissioned on custom built furniture...you'd never know it was paint. It's located in a gorgeous old neighborhood of... More

Great way to spend an hour and learn about the early Mormon leaders and their way of life in the 1850's. Well done tour. Friendly guides. They tell about early pioneer history in the area. They tell about the early Mormon history without being pushy. Good activity.
