In reply to Leanne Cole.It is one of those places we'd not known about until we started planning the trip. That's why we love those long journeys. We discover so much.

In reply to DeWetsWild.It is an interesting juxtaposition for a national park. I found it fascinating that the state park gave up some of its space to carve out the national park, and gave up the houses as well. I suspect there was a cost savings to the state. >grin<

Interesting to see a national park preserving not only a beautiful natural landscape but also relatively modern human history as well!

Thanks for the tour! I was here once, just for an afternoon many years ago, so we didn't have a chance to see much.

In reply to Toonsarah.I'm sure it would have been fun had we known in advance (and had the foresight to get tickets in August that year. :-))

It must be very interesting to tour those houses, I'm not surprised the tours attract large numbers of people! I got to visit Indiana Dunes State Park with a friend while in Chicago last year and although it was only a brief visit we did have a paddle in the lake, just to be able to say that we'd done so :D

In reply to Anne Sandler.I remember visiting the house of tomorrow tour in Disneyland almost six decades ago. I, too, thought of it when I saw the houses here.
