  • Wow! I didn’t know what to expect, since I didn’t look at any pictures before going. My recommendation is to also not look at pictures so that you can be just as surprised by all the beauty. As soon....  more

  • We had a fantastic experience seeing and learning about the Hay House. Our guide, Shy, was bashful about us being one of his first tours, but he was fantastic. He did an amazing job showing us all the wonders of the Hay House, and answering all our questions. It was amazing to walk through living history, and try to imagine what life was like when the house was built. We had an amazing time, and I would recommend this tour to anyone who's interested in historical Georgia or architecture. The additional fee to see the top floors is worth it as well. Climbing the spiral stairs to the top of the house was an experience, and well worth it.
  • Our 8 yo daughter found out about the Hay House, so we stopped on our way up to Helen. Deborah, our tour guide was fantastic and shared so many interesting things about the house. The extra $5 to go up the cupola was well worth it. So cool. The stop exceeded our expectations!
