  • Frank Lloyd Wright would roll over in his grave...lol. This was an interesting house that I guess we won't forget. Mr. Körner kept creating rooms within an existing blueprint. The master bedroom is...

  • Thoroughly enjoyed the history of the home and the unique architecture. Narrow passageways and innovations for the period. Worth the visit if this is your wheelhouse.

  • Loved it! Tickets $12 adult, self-guided, 3 floors of a beautiful Victorian house. First 2 floors are the living quarters and 3rd floor is a live theatre. Couldn't stand up straight in some of the rooms as I was too tall, must have been shorter back then, but the house was awesome! Recommend.
  • My daughter and I recently took a tour during Spring Break. It was one of the Best day-cations we've had in a while. We live locally and to be honest neither of us could remember the last time we took a tour. The self guided tour was Great! The information and guide posts along the tour we're both interesting and informative. My daughter really enjoyed the Scavenger Hunt. She got every answer right but one. 😊 We both really enjoy history, so this was a perfect outing for us. The breakfast nook and the reception hall were by far my favorite rooms in the house. The breakfast nook had Amazing windows and a sunroof, for a complete 360° of natural light. I definitely need one in my home. Korner's Folly is a great tour spot for kids/youth groups, families, anyone who Loves local history, architecture and art. My daughter and I are already making plans to return in the summer.
  • I really enjoyed our visit. I am a read everything person... So much interesting information! You really should visit an see this unique house! Wonderful way to spend a weekend afternoon!
  • Spent and hour in the home in enjoying the elaborate details. The curation makes it feel alive. Also heard the 3rd floor theater can be rented out. It would make a great place for a pop up production. As it is they just do a puppet show. The players are on display upstairs.
  • This historic place is a must visit for Christmas. The whole house was turned into beautiful Christmas decorations and is definitely a wonderful sight to see and experience. We and our kids loved the place and people😍
