A guided tour through the mansion depicts a time and way of life that were very much a part of Florida's unique history. This historic site grounds are open from 8 am to sunset. There is no fee to enter the grounds or the visitor center. An Open House is held each Thanksgiving season and again in March, hosted jointly by the Florida Park Service and the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Visitors are treated to entertainment on the grounds, free tours through the mansion and ladies and gentlemen in period costumes.
Many crafters display wares reminiscent of the antebellum period.
