Roadtrip 2024

Published on Oct, 2024

Always a fascinating place to visit and see. A very unique building that any body that likes architecture should see. Nor cheap though and book ahead.

Fallingwater

Published on Sep, 2024

The house was amazing, Tour guide was very knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour if you are a fan of FL Wright. Definitely wear walking shoes as lots of gravel paths to the house and lots of stairs up and down. Wouldn't do tour if in wheelchair or not an avid walker.

Wonderful as expected

Published on Jun, 2024

Wonderful place, great guided tour, book in advance as they fill up and have limited guided tours. We had a morning tour. Fallingwater was a bucket list item for me and it did not disappoint. Loved it so much and would love to return in the Autumn, the landscape must be stunning just like this home. Staff at the check in was great, nice open air check in/gift shop/snack shop/exhibit. Tip: be sure and use restroom before the tour.

A masterpiece indeed!

Despite a rainy gloomy day Fallingwater did not fail to impress. The staff were very helpful and were able to accommodate my friend and me for an earlier outdoor tour. Sturdy walking shoes are a must as the route to the structure is an all downhill trail and wet leaves on the wooden steps kept us alert. Umbrellas are available on site for free use. Just a heads up…if you desire an indoor tour you must book months in advance of the fall season. Our guide was so knowledgeable and accommodating, very attentive to the older tourists as they navigated the trail. There was a shuttle back to the visitor’s center if desired. Truly is spectacular! Would suggest a Wikipedia search prior to the visit.

Worth a Well worth a day trip from Pittsburgh, or passing through on your way elsewhere

Published on Sep, 2023

Book your visit to tour the inside of the house ahead of time! The week before the trip it looked like there would be plenty of spots available, but when we got there they were fully booked. Even so, we did pay to see the grounds -- which turned out to be every bit as satisfying - we could walk around the outside for pictures, see into the living room and other parts of the home, and talk with the grounds staff about the history of the place. Well worth a day trip from Pittsburgh, but we were passing through on our way home to Michigan from Washington DC and chose to stay overnight at the Smith House Inn 25 minutes away. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and a great way to break up the trek home!.
