3:45 Tour - We absolutely loved this mansion tour. It was beautiful. My only thing about it, is online it doesn't offer you the 3:45pm tour. That tour takes you up to the 3rd floor and down to the bottom level, that is now a children's museum. We didn't know about this until the lady at the front door told us about it. But still all in all it was a great place to visit.

Amazing Experience - Gorgeous mansion! The entire house is in perfect position and gave an amazing sense of what it looked like over a hundred years ago. The staff was also extremely nice and helpful. You can tell they enjoy working there and talking about the Moody history.
