If you would like to see the Gordon Low birthplace, there is a panoramic virtual tour of the interior and garden of the Gordon Low home available at http://www.savannahga.net/tours/vr/juliettegordonlowhome.html. This was shot a couple of years ago as part of a larger Savannah VR project. Enjoy!

Great Tour, nice gift shop

Tour was very interesting. Gift shop has very reasonable items. We have stayed at Ballastone last 3 years, right next to the Birthplace. Lots of spooky things happening over there. No doubt, they have a ghost.
The place is beautiful!! If you go to savannah you must visit this place. So much history.The house has all original furniture and articles. It looks like she still lives there.
So, I really wanted to check this place out while we were in Savannah for a get-away.
Juliette, who founded the Girl Scouts of America, was born and raised in Savannah. No surprise, her childhood home (which at one point was converted to apartments but was bought by the GSA Organization in the early 50s) is now a museum.
I liked all of it when I went their for the first time i was a girl scout. It was nice to find out who had founded this great oppertonity. They have lots to offer as activtys for the kids and as well as dress up.
Visiting the Birthplace with my daughter and her meme was an awesome experience. Meme, the grandmother, was in scouts some 50 years ago and had visited this special place and gotten her special pin. As a scout some 30+ years ago I had visited and of course gotten my special pin. So it was a prievelge for us to take my daughter who is a Brownie ...
Enjoyed the history. The staff were knowledgable of the history and were able to explain each room of the house. The house is beautiful and well kept. Can't wait to go back.
i loved it cuz im in gs and i liked seeing where the person who developed wat im in/been in for 9 yrs now lived... its awesome!!!!!

I came here with my GS troup, and while it was educational, many of us were tired and bored. I would recommend it for people who REALLy want to learn about Juliette Gordon Low. I have to say, though that the tour made me respect Juliette Low so much more, she really was an extrodinary women.
