A faithful and carefully restored Victorian home built in 1892. Open most weekends of the year. The docents (who dress in period attire) lead guided walking tours and they know their stuff! There are occasional special events like an ice cream social and herb garden tours. The outside grounds and 1st floor are wheelchair accessible. Parking is in the back with access via a large iron gate facing Magnolia Ave. A real glimpse into life as it was at the turn of the century. Very young children will likely be uninterested, leave the strollers outside and leave the pets at home. You will get some unique photos come away with a tangible sense for life at the turn of the century Riverside.

My oldest sister had her wedding in the Heritage House in the early 1970s when the City first took it over. I think it was the only wedding ever in that house. She had a Rolls Royce and a Packard ride from that House to the Backstreet Restaurant for the Reception. Ill never forget that day.

We have attended several special events here and always enjoy ourselves. The moon festival in September, the Victorian Christmas and the ice cream social have all been delightful experiences. The events are free of charge and family friendly.
