Melissa & her son gave a great tour. Really informative. I asked dozens of questions! Very interesting. They both went into detail of explaining everything to me. Couldn't miss the place with Google map. The directions took us straight there There was an alpaca cutout by the mailbox! Sometimes code or neighbors keeps signage from being available. It is a small venue so it is a must to set up an appointment for tour! Melissa has also a store using her alpaca fleece. I had messed up the date for the visit! Went one day early. My fault 100%. They were so very courteous & accomodating. They were willing to ask the other people's tour if we could join them. We just told them we would come back on the RIGHT day & time. LOL Great people!

In early March 2021, I was in Atlanta for a business trade show. I was able to finish everything I needed to accomplish on Saturday which provided me with time on Sunday morning to visit this museum before I drove home. This is NOT the Peterson Auto Museum or the Henry Ford Museum. However, this museum is EVERY car (or girl) guy's dream. A large space to display their automobiles and memorabilia. The items in the museum are not multi-million dollar concours pieces that only travel in covered trailers and never see the road. Instead, these are personally owned automobiles that have a great personal connection to their owners and usually are very important to their owner's families. Most of the items displayed in the museum are the life's work of collecting, restoring, and a source of family enjoyment of their respective owners. Where else does one have the opportunity to publicly indoor display the family car they rode in as a child and is now a collectible automobile that many others would enjoy seeing and reminiscing of their personal experience of a similar automobile? I find it important to note that the items on display are regularly changing, so a return trip is likely to have very different items on display than you viewed on your last visit. The drive to and from the museum is tranquil and scenic. The admission price is very fair and I found it to be an excellent value. As an added bonus, the indoor flea market that houses the museum is amusing to walk through on your way in and out of the museum. I greatly applaud Sean and everyone who keeps the museum and displays clean and regularly changing.
