The Old House at Peacefield - Adams National Historical Park - Historical place museum in Quincy - 1250 Hancock St, USA

Definitely one of the better attractions in Quincy. The tour guide provided valuable information and insight to the history of the estate, and the many notable figures who have called the place home. The gardens on the outside match the name of the manor, creating a peaceful and calming atmosphere. To roam around the gardens are free, but a tour is required to get into the house. Overall a very pleasant and informative experience. Definitely recommend getting a tour!

Lots of interesting history from four generations of the Adam's family. And the gardens outside are beautiful! The stone library is amazing. it's a beautiful space with 11,000+ books collected by John Quincy Adams.

The Old House at Peace field was a great presidential historic site. Home to two presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams. The tour does good job discussing the Adams family personal history in the house. Several artifacts that belong to John and John Quincy Adams are in the house. The Stone Library is also on the property. The library contains more than 6,000 books collected by John Quincy Adams. The garden and grounds that surround the house are also very nice. This house was the second of the stops on tour ticket. Ticket price is very good as you get to see and tour three different houses that belonged to the Adams family. Rangers did a very nice job at this historic and at John Adams birthplace historic site. The Visitor Center for the Adams National Park is not within walking distance for either the houses. You should plan to drive from house to house if there is no transportation offered by the park. Make sure to reserve your tickets through the park ahead of time.

Beautiful home of John Adams after he was president. Beautiful 19th century home with amazing gardens.

The home and library are beautiful! The furnishings actually belonged to the Adams family. The upholstery looks to be in excellent condition ... they obviously did not have a cat (lol). I wish there was an extended tour where one can actually make thorough observations and hear more information and personal stories about the people who lived there. The tour guide was excellent. I would give her an A+.

Peacefield is an amazing place to visit. The home and the grounds are beautiful, and there is a lot of history to experience. The stone library is unforgettable with over 12,000 books.

We took the trolley tour of the Adams homesteads and the church.It was very informative run by the trustees who know the histories of the whole family.It was not hard to get to and they validate your parking in the garage so not to expensive to get a history lesson on a past president and his family.

Second stop on the tour that departs from the Adams National Historic Park. This segment lasts about an hour. Our guide offered a lot of details and information without becoming boring. A lot of "fun facts".
