Craighead House

I can’t believe it’s been a couple of years since we had gone out here, my google photos pop up occasional reminders- friends of our family had shared with us that Twig was going to be recounting some of her experiences growing up at Craighead- we had an absolutely wonderful afternoon there, listening to her tell some life- filled stories that were so wonderful and genuine- this little museum that is being restored is so wonderful, I am excited to take our kids back in the summer and we meant to go out again but our schedules are quite chaotic- if you have a chance, the grounds are beautiful, right on the treasure of Yellow Breeches; such an important family to the formation of natural sciences and literature, so glad we had this exceptional experience and we are looking forward to attending future programs that we can occasionally fit into our schedule

Went to go experience the land for the first time, was entirely respectful for the fact we were mourning our friend, and we were questioned and kicked off the property by the owners for no reason at all.... Maybe if the property is off limits and private property, then you should post it at the entrance and not along the waterway 🤷🏻‍♂️

Very nice and attentive volunteer staff.

Beautiful gardens. House is being restored.

Incredible wee nature park with educational classes for all ages. Super history here along the Yellow Breeches Creek by the new bridge.

Awesome fishing spot!

Parked in the parking lot until right around before dusk. Apparently their definition of dusk is a little early. Caught them checking out my cars and when asked to leave I agreed saying I totally missed the sign, it was my fault. When I was about turn around and leave the 12 year old daughter got in my face, and screamed at me saying she’d call the cops on me for... agreeing to leave..? My father and I left and then we caught them watching us outside our family’s home. Today we learned they called the cops saying we “hit” one of them w our cars and we were trespassing for “staying after dark” in the parking lot. We stayed no later than “dusk.” The police are taking no action, seems like this might happen a lot. I would stay far away.
