A treasure trove of interesting historical facts. Jerry our tour guide loves what he does and it showed through and through. The view from the bell tower was the icing on the cake.

The Pink House

Reviewed By Anonymous671 - Newburyport, United States

It’s the story behind the house that makes it an attraction. That AND the way it photographs with a sunset or without, with or without a hawk or snowy owl perched on the chimney. And the story of how a community rallies around a fabulous part of history and raises funds to keep it from being torn down.
