The estate is very pretty with diverse plants on the grounds. The buildings are interesting, too. The museum portion has lots to look at. Lots of information on things that Edison did and lots of surprises for me. There are also a variety of classes that you can sign up for. I've attended a couple and found them well presented and fun. They also have various shows (garden, antique boats, antique cars, T-Birds, etc) that are fun. Give it a try. Programs are presented in German and Spanish also.
我喜欢圣诞节的时候来这里玩,让我想起童年时光,喜欢看那些装饰得五彩斑斓的圣诞橱窗……
我去过迈尔斯堡很多次了,这是第一次到Edison & Ford冬季度假村。这里的房子漂亮,花园很好。员工人好,友好,我最喜欢的部分导游在领着我们过街时他告诉我们可以随便走走(而不是必须固定沿着线路走)。你可以以自己的节奏观景,坐在凳子上然后看水面上的景象。你就感觉自己是回到了以前的时光。
庄园和实验室之旅非常棒。导游Justin非常优秀,介绍各处景点和福特及爱迪生生活时代的场景。我们对Banyan咖啡馆很失望-本来它可以成为非常不错,带空调的午餐餐厅,但实际上却是露天的午餐区。我们选择去别的地方用餐-我很高兴之前没有买便当午餐。我觉得最好是在景点找个有空调的餐厅用餐。幸运的是,附近一座小商场里有其它餐厅,就在路的那头。我们中有人选了赛百味、中餐厅和Fresh Water餐厅。在附近就有这么多可选择的食物,真不错。在午餐高峰期,我们一行人分成几个小组分别去不同的餐厅用餐。
We took the guided tour and had a very knowledgeable, friendly guide. We learned a lot about Edison, Ford and the many beautiful plants on the property. This was time and money well spent!! A fun and rewarding learning experience!!
Beautiful winter homes of both Thomas Edison & Henry Ford. Interesting to learn how they became such good friends. The location of the homes on the river is beautiful. I was disappointed that the only way to view the homes/rooms was from the outside porches looking in through the windows. I guess this is a way of preserving the homes. The grounds were lovely with some many different plantings. Who knew there were so many different varieties of palm trees. Didn't realize Edison & his wife studied plants. Edison's labs were also great to go through and the museum housed many phonographs and other things. Parking is free but we had to park quite a distance away since it was crowded. The crowds did move. Great museum for people of all ages.
I had toured these estates 11 years ago when the Edison home was being restored. This time I was with my cousin and her husband from Minnesota. We enjoyed the tour and the greatly and would recommend ot to anyone of any age. These gentlemen were two giants of early America's industrial development.
Really liked it here. There's something for everyone. The museum is very good, lots of history. The grounds and gardens were great, lots of different trees, flowers, etc. The houses are very easy to see into and they are full of antiques. Spent 2 hours here and didn't get enough time to go through and see everything. Employees are very friendly. Will come back again on my next visit.
我喜欢自助旅游,让我可以按照自己的安排到处游览。我会推荐冬天或者初春的时候去Edison & Ford,因为我去的时候,那里的天气很热。不过,那里有很多降温的设施,因为那里有很多风扇和空调调节气温。这个地方很漂亮,这样的旅行能够增长知识。冬天我会再去的。Banyon树非常的壮观,就像这里的景色一样。
这是个漂亮的地方,花园修剪的很漂亮,房子很是简单,不过户外空间很多,除了游泳池(是1910年建的),这里并没有今天我们常见的那些富豪庭院的富丽堂皇。在那个年代,我愿意被宴请来这里做客。
