This is a self-guided tour. You will need your own vehicle. You will be able to pick up your tickets, maps and directions at the Home Tour Headquarters beginning at 11 AM and head off from there. Docents at each house will help guide and inform you.
 
Allow at least 4 hours to see all of the homes. You can see all or some of the homes in any order. You can start at any time after 11 AM but the homes will be closed to the public at 4 PM.
 
Addresses will be provided in your program and map. These homes are spread over a distance of nearly three miles.There are three cluster of homes that are in close walking distance. The rest can be reached by automobile.     
 
Access for the disabled is not available. Most of the homes have multiple steps and floors in addition to long and narrow indoor and outdoor stairways, making it very difficult for people with physical disabilities to gain access.
 
Carpool  when possible.  Three of the homes are withing walking distance of each other, but you will still need a car to travel between the Home Tour Headquarters and the homes.  Street parking can also be in limited supply. 
 
Food and drink will be available at one location. Baked goods and beverages will be sold outdoors at two of the properties noted in the program. But eating and drinking is not allowed inside any of the homes.
 
Photography inside the homes is  prohibited.
