This was my fourth visit and it didnt disappoint. It is well maintained and presented. The tour lasts about 45 minutes starting on the hour on Saturday at 10, 11, 1, 2 and so on. Parking is $3 and the tour is $3. If you are driving from the Tampa area to Jax, it is a great stop off about half way in between a couple miles off 301. It's great to teach children about our Florida history. Probably not great for wheelchair access because of steps up and down to enter/exit the home and a few levels as you go from room to room. While you are at it, eat at the Yearling Restaurant on the creek 1/2 mile from the Rawlings home.

Wonderful staff. Wine tasting is free and you can sample 6 of their fabulous fruity wines. Great space outside to pack a picnic while you enjoy one of their bottles of wine. New addition is their escape room, it was lots of fun, challenging but doable.
