In the center is a large square arch and ornate chandelier with a fabric covered table and chair beneath. On the right is another ornate chair and floor to ceiling bookcase filled with books and with two glass doors.

Phase 4 COVID-19 Visiting Policies

All guests/tour guides must have face coverings covering nose and mouth.

Hand sanitizer is provided at the front door and at the top of the stairs for your use. There is also a bathroom on the first floor of Edwards Place where you can wash your hands.

Contact tracing is recommended from health officials - we ask guests to provide us their names, phone numbers, and email, as well as their date of visit so they may be informed if there were any suspected COVID-19 cases during the times that they visited. This is done at the beginning of the tour.

We ask that guests not touch anything in the house. Many items are difficult to sanitize, as we cannot use the same methods as typical for other businesses. There will be seating for guests that cannot stand for 45 minutes. Everything touched is cleaned thoroughly after every tour.

Public tours are limited to 10 guests and all groups must be separated from one another by 6 feet. Private/group tours may have up to 30 guests.

Please self-screen before your visit and avoid visiting if you are exhibiting any symptoms of COVID-19 or have a temperature.
