We visited this historic house on a recent trip to Eugene. It’s definitely worth visiting if going to historic houses is your thing. Compared with other historic houses/mansions, it’s not as spectacular as many, but we enjoyed visiting, and it’s a good peek into the past. There was a volunteer tour guide when we visited and she gave us a good tour(included in the admission price). Do be sure to check the hours as they are only open a few hours a day. They do tea a few times a year and I would have loved to go for that but we were there at the wrong time(early January). The view from the top of the steps is nice(it was a cloudy rainy day, but it was still nice to look down).

It seems every fall and spring SMJH puts on a tea. I happened to catch wind of this spring’s tea. Today we went. This is our 2nd tea with SMJH and I can say, I am always so impressed! The food is paced leisurely. The tea is paired with each course just perfectly. And you walk away positively stuffed. Sammy and I spent 2 hours nursing our way through 3 kinds of hot tea, 2 kinds of sandwiches, quiche, crustini, 2 kinds of scones, devnonshire cream, jam, and 4 kinds of desert. Just look at the pictures. Worth every cent, if not for the food, for the time I spent with a modern 13yo girl. Quiet time like this is priceless and the tea is a forgotten art!
