The Gamble House

The quintessential example of the Arts and Crafts Movement, the Gamble mansion is a stunning must-see for students of this art form or for architecture enthusiasts in general. The tours are all guided and the docents are extremely well-informed about the home and building materials. Advance reservations are definitely recommended. Not really a place of interest to small children, however.

This was one of the best tours I have been on. The house and its history are fascinating. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and well spoken. We were able to see all areas of the house. The length of the tour was good. Be sure to reserve online; it's a popular site.

An architectural gem for lovers of Arts and Crafts and for those who enjoy architecture and local history in general. The docent was very knowledgeable and pleasant.
