The tour guide and piano player were very informative and friendly. This former vice president’s home is absolutely beautiful! If you’re into old houses, history and lovely volunteers then this place is for you. Bring cash for tickets and the gift shop. Reserve your time online. Not sure if you can just walk in, but if you do reserve online you’re guaranteed a tour that will delight and inform.

My family and I happened to be walking by this beautiful house yesterday. As I walked up to read the plaque by the front door it opened and an older gentleman asked if we would like to look inside. He said the last tour for the day was over but we could just walk around a bit. He then proceeded to give my family and I a personal tour of the entire first floor, I can not imagine that the official tour could have been any more informative.

Fascinating house and museum. Beautifully preserved and restored. A rich history presented in tours 5 days a week. Also the home of the Evanston History Center. With the complete history of the city available to read and research. The ballroom is available for special events. A shining bright spot in the city of Evanston across the street from the lakefront.

It's a nice little sort of museum or old house with family history. Lady at reception is really nice and welcoming. They charged us 10$ for the house tour. House can be visited in half an hour.

We were there for a private event, not a tour. Nonetheless the staff and volunteers were very wonderful and beyond welcoming.

They always give such a nice tour. The house is amazing. Dont miss their mothers day event.

I walked by for over a decade without knowing who Charles Dawes was. Oops. Some serious history in this house! The house is on par with some of great historic mansions and worth an architectural tour. There is a small exhibit upstairs on the history of Evanston as well. Very interesting. They have a few open house events a year. Worth the visit!

Awesome place! Great tour and amazing house

Very educational about an interesting Illinois historical figure. The house and furniture itself is very beautiful and worth seeing. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and happy to answer our questions. Lots of good exhibits upstairs as well. Close to the beach and worth a trip.

The property is beautiful, and they have a 5 dollar tour that goes through the history of the house and lasts an hour. It's also a beautiful place to have your wedding ceremony or pictures taken.

Well-maintained house of a former VP with a fascinating history. Very well done exhibits.

Beautiful space and amazing wedding venue!! We loved working with a Kris who was very flexible and helpful when we made changes. We really appreciated being married on beautiful Evanston and our guests loved this unique venue!

Absolutely beautiful place. Great tour and knowledgeable tour guide!

Amazing house for Evanston history

Beautiful historic building. Lots of rooms and a gorgeous staircase all done with beautiful oak wood. Impressive!

A great slice of American history...vice president under Coolidge. Impressive house.... worth your time.

Charles Dawes was an amazing man. The house contains so much history and the tour was very good!

The tour guide and piano player were very informative and friendly.

Great place for a wedding reception. The old bathrooms were super cool!
