thoreau house印象

The only thing here is a statue of Thoreau and a replica of his tiny, one room cabin. There isn't really any information posted about it, so if you visit, you might want to read up on Thoreau a little bit before you visit. It's right by Walden Pond, which is definitely not the serene place it was when he moved there to get away from everything. It's a very, very crowded beach with areas for swimming, picnicking, etc. Though crowded and busy, it's still a pretty place to visit. You'll have to pay for parking, but there is no fee to see the actual house or pond.

LIKE the place where Thoreau built with his hands and used as his base for observations. The replica is just the way he described it, and it brings what you've read alive. The actual house site is a few minutes walk away along the pond, surprisingly close to the railroad tracks that were there when T was, too. Visit it, see if there's any inspiration, and continue around the pond 1.7 miles.

would be better if it wasn't near the train or public beach

Putting a real structure even if it is a replica with Thoreau was good to do. Viewing the basic structure inside and out was informative and fun.

Very interesting to see and read about. Only have to see this once. But its definitely worth a trek. Stop by Walden Pond for sure.

This is a VERY small house. More like a shed. Interesting to see that Thoreau lived in such simple surroundings. Nice context for Walden Pond but not really a destinat6ion by itself.

Was ok if you like history. Interesting and a nice area.

The replica house is neat, the actual site is better, and a walk around Walden Pond on a nice day is to die for! Take your suit for a dip along the far side of the pond.

A visit to Walden Pond should be a spiritual experience with time to think, reflect, remember. This recreation of Thoreau's hut lies just a few feet away from a bustling parking lot with crying children, running pre-teens, and adults rushing by on their way to the beach, which serves as the town's recreational park. The house is in a bad location and quiet reflection is impossible here. Take a walk to the original house site and you'll find it more compatible with your ideas of Walden Pond.

Visit it. Free. And enjoy walden pond while you are there. Such a huge part of American history. Great to see the replica; the real inside Concord museum, go see that too.
