This attraction is probably one of the kookiest big tourist traps in the country, but it is still lots of fun. The house itself, while picturesque on the outside, looks like a combination of Yoda's cottage and Barbarella's spaceship on the inside and will probably make you laugh while still admiring its overall construction. The rest of the collection is... more

I thought this place might be quirky and fun, but it is really touristy and tacky. Most of the "collections" were actually built there by their staff (recently) so they are not really "collections". The place has been added onto,but in not a meaningful way. The original house has some interesting features, but the newer parts have just been added... more

It saddens me that people can not appreciate the true wonder of the House on the Rock. I was originally from the area and have been to the house many times, since I was a small child. Never did I find it scary or creepy; not even as a child. This attraction is one of a kind, full of wonderment... more

I read about this place years ago on the internet in an article about unique architecture. They were referencing the Infinity room in the House of the Rock. It seemed like an interesting place to visit, but when I saw where it was located I thought "When will I ever go there to see it?" Well after learning about the... more

I can't believe I drove more than three hours to see this awful thing. It's like a tour of the brain of someone who suffers from a bad case of obsessive-compulsive disorder. This is where garage sale junk goes to die. My allergies went nuts from all the mold and dust. My kids hated it. It's like a wart on... more

About 8 years ago, I started a tradition of travelling to House on the Rock once a year. I try to go during regular season, but have also gone during the holiday season for their Christmas tour. The entire place is an eclectic collection of obscure, bizarre, and crazy objects. Each time I go I see groups of people from... more

My husband and I really wanted to visit this attraction and it is a place you must see at least once just to experience it. The house itself was my favorite part of the tour, as it was not a busy day we were able to really take our time and not feel hurried because of people coming behind us,... more

Being from the northeast, we had never heard of this place, and assumed it was simply a tour of some eccentric guy's house on a cliff. However, it's soooooo much more than that! Ten years ago, my husband and I were driving through the area and saw the sign for House on the Rock. We decided to give it a... more

Absolutely the worst place I've ever toured. Dark, musty, moldy, mildewy ... Collection after collection of dusty, ugly junk. My husband and I were part of a tour group and everyone agreed that this was worst part of our trip. I recommend taking some Vitamin C a week before you go, putting on a face mask when you get there,... more
