We stopped here while on a guided JFK Tour. It was amazing. Literally like stepping back in history as the house is in its original state from. The 60's. You can see Oswald's bedroom and his jacket that he was arrested in. I would definitely recommend you visit!

I arrived after hours and without calling before...I was expecting to just take photos from outside, BUT there was an open sign on the locked door, so I called the number. She explained they were closed but she forgot to take the sign down but was talkative. I explained I had been to all the other JFK sites during the day, explaining in some detail where I had been, places like Hardy's shoe store who NEARLY NOBODY visits and would be leaving Dallas early the next morning. She said something like, "You sure seem pretty knowledgeable about what went on, if you aren't coming back to Dallas soon, I will give you a tour." A few minutes later she unlocked the door and I stayed about 2 1/2 hours leaving at 8:30PM!!! She is an EXCELLENT story teller, as well as listener, articulate, passionate, open minded and still curious....really connects on a human level. If you are a JFK assassination buff, DO NOT MISS going here!!!!! As I was leaving she said "You are a wealth of information yourself!"

A piece of history stuck in time. Very interesting tour. I definitely recommend finding a tour that includes this in the price. The granddaughter, of the woman who owned and rented the room to Oswald, has the inside set up just like it was in 1963. It's truly amazing.

Part of our air conditioned van tour, the rooming house is maintained as it was in November 1963. Oswald's bedroom and rest of the house was truly informative. The woman that owns it came out and told us the history of the place!

Such an interesting part of history to see

Eerie and chilling....to see the room and bed he slept in on that day.

This was like entering a time capsule back to 1963. I felt steeped in history. Miss Pat was so kind and shared her memories of interactions with Lee Oswald which were fascinating. This is a MUST on any trip to Dallas! Thank you, Miss Pat for taking care of such a piece of our history.

My husband and I made an appointment to visit with Ms. Hall and from the time we knocked on the door until we left she made us feel like family. It was fascinating to see all the details of the house exactly as they had been since the last time ‘Mr. Lee’ as she refers to him had been there. Even better was hearing her tell the story of being a little girl, watching him play with her brothers, and spending time with him while he resided there. She is not only knowledgeable about the events surrounding the assassination of JFK but her family has a rich history with the city of Dallas that was incredible to hear. We will definitely be back to visit again!

Visiting this home was a step back in time, the house was never changed from that day!

Very interesting peak into 1963. The matriarch of this museum is a fascinating lady with first-hand knowledge of Lee Harvey Oswald. Great place to visit!

This was THE best tour and visit. It felt like I was back in 1963. Feeling the history the building has is incredible. Mrs. Pat was absolutely divine and very open about the situation. I am a very big history person and seeing this first hand and talking to Mrs. Pat was something I’ll never forget. If you want to know more and know the facts I suggest visiting this house and talking with Mrs. Pat herself.

Probably the most essential visit of the “Dallas” tour, I was near by ( at the cinema ) and didn’t realise how close all the places are to each other so decided to just go and see the house, on my arrival I decided to call and was greeted by the wonderful Patricia, explaining I was on whistle stop tour and had only half hour to spare she kindly offered me a tour of her house, a fantastic opportunity to see (remember) how life was in the early 60s and more importantly an opportunity to speak to someone who actually new “ Mr Lee”. Thank you so much Patricia.

Miss Pat was there to greet us and is 3rd generation of her family who was running the Rooming House. The living room, dining room and Oswald's sleeping area are all unchanged. (as if time stopped that day). A fabulous time capsule you don't have to wait to open. SEE IT SOON...as it may not be around long as the city is demolishing and modernizing the area so this fantastic and historical private showpiece will sadly be reduced to nothing more than a plaque in cement or a marker on a pole. We are so honored to have been able to see this part of history up close and in person.

Great museum experience. Pat had so much information and we look forward to visiting with her again!

Great history great Host

It was like going back in time. Old furniture, TV and musty smelling shaggy carpet. Oswald was living in a dump.

Pat was very sweet, informative, and passionate about keeping the story alive and available for all. Thank you for the personal tour.

Maybe best for someone with major interest in talking about JFK, Oswald, the assassination, and the poltical climate at the time. $30 fee but do get 2 hours with Patricia who has a lot to say about the above topics and is there for all questions. She knew Mr. Lee, as she calls him, during the 6 weeks he stayed there at her grandmother's rooming house, when she was 11. The living areas are preserved as to look as they did back in 1963, but the visible area of the home is limited to 3 rooms.

It was such an interesting place to visit. The fact that they were able to keep everything as it was for 60 years is just amazing... it's like walking back in time.

A huge thank you to Miss Pat for such a wonderful experience. We booked a private tour and were treated to two fabulous hours of personal insight into Lee Harvey Oswald, the man, from the sofa of the rooming house, and seeing Lee's bed. If you're fascinated by the JFK assassination, visit Miss Pat's rooming house. It's highly recommended. Michael & Helene (from UK & Dallas)

It was cool to see the house still set to 1963. Oswald's tiny room was interesting, but not a must see if taking a JFK tour.

If you want to get the whole JFK Assassination experience a visit to The Oswald Rooming House Museum which has remained the same since that fateful day back in 1963. I recommend going as part of a tour with a guide to get the whole experience which involves watching actual coverage from Walter Cronkite on a vintage tube TV.

Absolutely love this visit, Miss Pat. Such amazing insight, brought LHO and other key figures to life, and answered my MANY MANY questions. We had a private appt which was fantastic. I will be going back. Thank you for a great experience.

This is a great museum that feels like you stepped back in time to 1963. Everything is in place as it was back in 1963 and it's astonishing to see how close Oswald's bedroom (you get to walk inside it and see how small it was) is to the common area of the living room. The woman who gives the tour is excellent, gracious, knowledgeable, and will answer all of your questions. We spent probably over a few hours talking about everything pertaining to Oswald and the case. It's beyond fascinating and worth every cent. You won't forget this amazing experience and you won't regret it. It's a must see!

I was a border there twice in the mid 90's the current owner at that time was Fay I believe she was the daughter of the original owner, the history of the house was so amazing and Fay was a sweet person.

Kind a creepy place. I was not able to go inside as you need to make an appointment. Easy to find about five minutes from Dealey Plaza.

I visited with Ms Puckett-Hall on Monday October 31st, at the end of a four-day, first-time stay in Dallas, entirely dedicated to what took place in the city 59 years ago. As I arrived in Dallas, President Kennedy was very much in my thoughts. As I left, the story and the memory of Lee Harvey Oswald filled my mind. Nothing esoteric here, but after walking the quiet neighbourhood of Oak Cliff, seeing the abandoned house on Neely Street, watching a movie in the Texas Theatre on Jefferson Boulevard, and most importantly, talking to Ms Puckett-Hall for an hour and a half, in the house where "Mr Lee" spent the last six weeks of his short, tormented life, standing in the tiny room where he slept, I was left with the eery, ineffable sense of his presence. This is a place of priceless memory, a testimony to our history (not just American History, but World history), and as such, like Ruth Paine's house in Irving, and certainly as much as the Texas School Book Depository on Dealey Plaza, it deserves the respect and above all the protection of the City of Dallas, the State of Texas, the UNESCO... or whichever authority will be best suited to make sure that it lives on for future generations. I feel immensely grateful, and indebted, to Ms Puckett-Hall for having welcomed me in her home and for having so generously shared her time and memories of Lee Harvey Oswald with me. For people with a sound knowledge of the history of President Kennedy's assassination, put it very high on your list, this is A MUST. For people who don't know much, but who are curious, willing to learn, please come to this house with an open mind, an open heart, and as much respect you can muster for the place, and the work done by Ms Puckett-Hall. The memory of the young man whose destiny was shattered by the blind forces of power, money and politics, and whose memory has lingered under this roof for six decades, also deserves our respect. Remember, there was no trial, he was denied legal representation, no one bothered recording the twelve hours of his interrogations, he was silenced two days after the President was murdered, and what we are left with ultimately is this claim, "I am a patsy"... Patricia, I am forever grateful and as I told you, I will be back!

A Great experience so much history Dallas history, got the private tour with Ms. Patricia the most nicest sweet person, with lots of knowledge and insides of the JFK assassination

Very interesting little museum/house with almost everything just as it was on that fateful day in 1963. There was something I couldn't put my finger on, seeing the space where Oswald slept. Definitely reccomend if you're wanting to learn more about the assassination of JFK.

This was an absolutely amazing experience. Miss Pat has so much knowledge and is so welcoming, she was gracious enough to share experiences and answer questions about events. This is a must for anyone who has any interest about the JFK assassination. I will be going again, because I have so many more questions to ask and learn.

It's worth every penny of the $30.00 You'll get insights you've probably never heard before

Brief stop on the tour. Interesting seeing where Oswald lived, where he went after assassination & events that preceded his arrest.

Follow Oswald's route after the JFK assassination starting from his boarding home to The Texas Theater. Where was he going (or coming from) before encountering Officer Tibbits?
