President Lincoln's Cottage, Washington DC

It wasn't the easiest place to find but when I found it I discovered a place that gives a fantastic glimpse into the life of President Abraham Lincoln in Washington. The "Cottage" is an original structure with lots of presidential history, Lincoln wasn't the only president to enjoy the tranquility of place. There was an excellent exhibit about Mary Lincoln and grief. The staff is outstanding; our guide, Johnny, gave a great interpretation of what Lincoln's life was like at the Soldier's Home. 5 stars!

President Lincoln's cottage was no doubt the most educational historic visit I have made. The staff here we're outstanding. I doubt if you can find a better experience of former President Abraham Lincoln then what you will find here at President Lincoln's cottage. The tour is based on second and third-hand accounts people's interactions with the president. Therefore what you are hearing is not what some historian assume but rather the words of those who experienced the words and the emotions of one of our greatest presidents. I recommend that if you're in DC head north President Lincoln's cottage and experience it for yourself. The store has a price unlike other areas in DC but the money is worth it as the secondary mission of President Lincoln's cottage is to educate and help to fight modern day slavery.
