    Wonderful small battle site near Kansas City. Site is well preserved and tour of Anderson house is well worth price of 5 dollars. Nice visitors center and short documentary film. The town of Lexington is also worth a visit.

    Beautiful and historic. Kind of isolated. If you are in MO you have to visit this site due to the epic event that happened here.

    Very interesting place, was there for eclipse this Summer, rain, clouds that parted just long enough to view once in a lifetime event, park personnel helped everyone park, find refuge from rain and still had time to explain exhibition. With 100 times the normal visitors, I was impressed.

    Accommodating staff at the visitor center will make you feel welcome and give you the story of the Battle. You will have a good appreciation for the town folk and the soldiers for both sides of this Civil War battle.

    Watched the solar eclipse and beforehand, while my son and I were waiting, we went through the museum. Excellent. Learned something new of the local KC North vs South history.

    We were there for the eclipse. Would love to go back for a tour of the house. They don't do tours on Mondays.

    It was cool, but there was a heat advisory, so we couldn't go into Anderson house due to no AC

    When first I came to Louisville, some pleasure there to find
    A damsel there from Lexington was pleasing to my mind
    Her rosy cheeks, her ruby lips, like arrows pierced my breast
    And the name she bore was Flora, the lily of the west. (Copyright Bob Dylan).

    Very fascinating battle story! Even more exciting is the history of the house. The staff were extraordinarily friendly, and all seemed thrilled to be talking to me about anything in the area. I felt so welcome! The $5 tour of the house was led by a sweet and hilarious lady, peppering the whole tour with jokes and fun facts. I wish it had been longer, because I could have listened to their stories all day!

    I have toured this home no less than thrice. The tour guide let our girls try on a hoop skirt once. Many tours can be difficult with kids, but this is kid friendly. The slanted porch and curved staircase are very interesting. Even when the house is closed, the visitors center museum is informative. I love historic homes. This was a hospital during the civil war. It's worth a visit.

    Lovely site. Well-maintained, informative. There is a museum, the Anderson House directly behind that, and the battlefield itself. The Anderson House is beautiful, and you can still see places around the windows where bullets hit.
