I actually have the "inside scoop" on this place because my father works for the National Park Service and is a Tour guide here at the Longfellow House. If you love Old Colonial Boston architecture, history or poetry, this is the place for you. A beautifully restored home in Cambridge, not far from Harvard Square, the site is a walk back in time to when Longfellow lived there and wrote some of his best known works. The site is open Wednesday to Sunday from 10 am to 4:30 pm and offers tours at various times throughout the day. Admission for persons 17 and older is three dollars. Under 17 and National Park pass holders are free.
