Hickory Hill historic house museum

Miss Melinda is the docent that took us on a tour of the Watson home. She greeted us upon arrival and made us feel like she appreciated us being interested in the Watson family history and their home. She is knowledgeable on all things related to Mr. Watson, his family, home construction, and furnishings. Good job Miss Melinda, we appreciate you.

Visited Hickory Hill last week. Could not have asked for a better experience. The house and grounds are very well kept even though they were cleaning up from the recent hurricane. Ms. Frankie, resident scholar and guide knows her subject a makes the visit a delight. Good idea to call before visiting. If the house seems closed be sure to check the office, which is in the back. Watson was a shaker and mover in Georgia politics in his day, and to know Georgia history you need to know Tom Watson.

Visited with family and enjoyed the tour and guide's detailed history and information about the history of the home and it's owners, both personally and professionally. Beautiful home and gardens - well worth the stop to visit and tour.

I went there for my field trip it wasn’t what I was expecting but it was still fun

It was small however very well put together and very interesting. The tour was about 35 minutes. With just my sister and I it was great to be able to ask questions. The grounds were very welcome an interesting to walk around. All in all I enjoyed my time there very much.
