The site is made up of a visitors' center, as well as the 20-room farmhouse Garfield lived in with his wife and five children.

What a nice surprise this historic site turned out to be! The Garfield National Historic Site offered one of the more informative and entertaining tours I’ve been on in quite some time. The staff here really love their jobs and take great pride in interacting with visitors. Nice museum and film. Grounds well kept. Of course the focal point of the historic site is the Garfield house - an impressive structure that houses tons of authentic artifacts to the Garfield family, including the first presidential library. Kids were free; adults $10. Well worth it. If you are in the area, don’t miss this NHS dedicated to a man whom - had he lived - might have been one of America’s greatest presidents.

I went during the Christmas season to see the Nativities from around the world. They were interesting and there were lots of them. This is free to view and worth the stop if you are in the area. I am told that they have different ones each year. In the lobby they have a large nativity. I have been there two separate years and it has been hand made and nicely done. They also have some lights outside. It is not very large so it would take you about a half hour to an hour to look around. It depends on how long you view the nativities.

Visiting the castle takes about 15min, so plan on doing something extra when you're going there. I saw people hiking, biking, having a picnic, playing frisbee, taking pictures or just strolling around.
