It's a beautiful area to visit. My fiance and I didn't get a chance to walk inside the log cabins; however, it was interesting to learn the daily lives of that time period by the information posts on the bike trail. It's worth visiting at no cost.
FYI: There was a wedding reception being set up at the Valhalla estate. Looked gorgeous!!

Nice stop
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/02/07
These houses are neat and it is free to go through them (all but the Pope Esate). Interesting to see how people lived in the 20s in this area. Beautiful log home with a museum and gift shop. A small area dedicated to the Washoe Indians. Other buildings include some guest cabins, a working blacksmith building where you can purchase napkin rings ...
Interesting place to see 'how the other half lived' at the turn of the century and up to the Depression, probably. Well preserved and curated displays of the homes and grounds of three wealthy families.
Free to walk around, and entertainment most evenings.

Magical Place
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/06/05
This place can be magical if you go at the right time. There is plenty to see, and on a nice day in the summer, it is a great stop on your trip to Tahoe.
