Excellent docent. Very knowledgeable not only of the history of the property but of many historic properties in the area. He was also a trove of knowledge of Kentucky history and was able to give us suggestions and information of other historic areas.
He knew the history of the property and the owners and family members (with the original owners having 12 children who survived that is no small feat!!). He was able to provide many stories and anecdotes and stories to add depth and personality to historic people.
He was able to answer - in detail - every question that was thrown at him including what was original - furnishings, color, etc.
If you are interested in history or historic properties - this is well worth your time!!!

The lady of the house gave us a great detailed tour. We learned a lot of history about the people and home they inhabited. Also the total history of the house.
The old, old Ash tree was interesting also.
I recommend going!

We walked by this home and decided to look in, which was a good choice. Our very knowledgeable guide told us the story of the families who lived there and the house itself. Very interesting

The tour by Jackson was fun and informative. I particularly enjoyed learning and visualizing what is was like living in Lexington 200-years ago. In addition to the fascinating house museum, there is a small Civil War Museum and a Hemp Museum. Together it helps paint a picture of Lexington’s interesting history.

My friend's wedding was held in the garden here & the reception was inside the Hunt-Morgan House. The staff here did a fantastic job!

Being a Civil War history buff I had to stop by to see the Hunt-Morgan house. It is a lineage to General John Hunt-Morgan, his grandfather's house. But I also learned about life in the early 19th century, took in the sites and feels of an architecturaly pleasing house that has been partially restored back to it's early glory after being utilized in varying capacities. The museum has some nice pieced of family owned furniture and paintings as well as some artifcats belonging to General John Hunt-Morgan. It is worth the stop. Parking on site and reasonable prices for tours.

This is a well preserved historical home built in the early 1800s. The house was owned by the Morgan family and the confederate general John Hunt Morgan was born here. It is well worth the effort to see as it is filled with period pieces of furniture.

Built in 1814, the house is a Federal-style design. The wedding service,reception and dinner were held here in this beautiful setting..There was plenty of room for the over 100 attendees (supposedly the house can accommodate over 300 attendees). The area is air-conditioned. The room where the service was held was converted to the dining area during the reception. The garden adds to the ambiance. The florist and the caterer did a great job. Arrangements were made for additional parking across from the house.

Thank you for your kind review. We agree that the Dr. Thomas Hunt Morgan House is a beautiful wedding venue! As a point of clarification, it is Hopemont, the Hunt-Morgan House, that is the 1814 Federal-style house. It is primarily a house museum, but it can also double as an event venue. The wedding ceremony and reception you are referring to was at the Dr. Thomas Hunt Morgan House, built ca. 1870.

This is the place to go if you like Federal style architecture and hearing about generations of family history. The hour long tour is fascinating and includes information about the house itself, its inhabitants, and the culture of the era. The Civil War artifacts on display and the info about hemp production are a bonus, but the tour itself left me feeling like I knew the people who’d lived in the home. Well worth the time. There’s free parking in the lot behind the house.

If you only had time for one place - which one? Mary Todd Lincoln, Ashland or Hunt Morgan?

I visited all three of these homes this past September and I enjoyed them all, but if I could only tour one, I'd choose Ashland. The home of Henry Clay is surrounded by beautiful grounds & the home, built in the Federal style, contains ornate wood interiors and many historical artifacts from the time. Henry Clay was a very interesting historical figure which I knew little about before going on the tour. Another reason I'm glad I went. Note that photography is not allowed inside Ashland, but that was fine with me. Mary Todd Lincoln's home would be a close second as our tour guide was excellent providing a wealth of information and the home is completely furnished . It is just a much smaller and less ornate home than Ashland is.

Yes there are several ways to park near the mansion. They have free parking in the driveway behind the house, pay lot across the street, and meter parking on the street.
