Riordan Mansion State Historic Park, Flagstaff

This is history at its finest. Two brothers marry two sisters and build a beautiful house. It is truly walking back in history, since it is one of the only historic houses I have ever visited that had all the original furnishing and even clothes, etc. The family was rich and the details show it in the house. The visit tranports you to a different life and times. The family history is incrediable, almost unbelievable. DO NOT MISS THIS HISTORIC TREASURE! WORTH A SPECIAL TRIP TO SEE...YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY. FELT THE VERY SPIRIT OF THE PEOPLE THAT LIVED THERE, ESPECIALLY THE DAUGHTER THAT DIED.

On my trip to Flagstaff (Arizona, US), i came across this wonderful house built in 1904. This historic house is wonderful example of technology and architecture mixture 100 years ago. I was so surprized by seeing the perfect architecture, and was just carried away by the environment, ambience and its maintenance. Thanks to Marry (hope i wrote the correct spellings), the Guide for the house, who explained each and everything in the house very nicely.

We stumbled upon this tour after stopping at the visitor's center in Flagstaff and seeing it on a map. We love tours of historic homes and this one did not disappoint us. The tour guides were friendly and very knowledgable. We learned much about the family who lived there in addition to information about the craftman style of buliding and Gustav Stickley. We saw much of the home as it was when it was lived in. It was wonderful, informative and surprising in its details. I wouldn't mind living in a house like it, that's for sure. It was time well spent and well worth a trip.

A very interesting tour. Historic and informative. Would reccomend if the history of Flagstaff is of interest to you. Tours part of the mansion and explains the history behind it.
