    So many authentic artifacts cohesively presented. An impressive collection - we felt ourselves wishing for more nooks to explore there.

  • By Angie Dotson
    Small and pretty easy to navigate. It's nice that there is a parking lot with the surrounding area being quite busy. The staff is friendly and the exhibits are interesting. This is a great place to learn about it celebrate the life of Poe. The gift shop hits a lot of price points and has some cool souvenirs.
  • By MICHAEL Bradshaw
    Quaint, but tells an important story of a brilliant, but tortured man. Wonderful artifacts, knowledgeable and pleasant staff, rare books and an extraordinary contemplative garden. Very clean. Price is very reasonable. A fine place to make a donation and keep it going!
