    Excellent value. Cost only $5 for student tickets. My entrance covered a tour of the photography exhibit, a tour of the house, a concert, and a tour of the gardens. Allow for about 3-4 hours to explore everything and try to time it so you catch all the tours. Check the online schedule!

    The photo gallery tour and the house tour were my favorites, so definitely try to make those if you can! You'll learn a lot about George Eastman and how Kodak revolutionized photography -- a really amazing history. What an eccentric man.

    Good place if you would like to know more about photography history. The place is a house-museum so if you're into design and arquitecture you'll probably would like some details inside and outside the house. The gift shop has interesting and a big range of products. If you are in town you definitely should go!

    On weekend guides provide excellent tours on the mansion and in the garden around it. The exhibition is also unique and diverse - there is a temporary exhibition which is able to satisfy the modern art geeks, there is a fixed exhibition of Kodak products and Mr George Eastman posessions surely important for the region and there is plenty of some eastern eggs like the camera obscura room :) Highly recommended place.

    Incredible history of photography and wealth. Do not go expecting to see a camera museum. Well laid out and the staff/docents are knowledgeable. Worth our time and money.

    Was pleasantly surprised by this museum. Great art displays downstairs and tons to look at and read inside the home. Definitely worth a stop.

    Truly fascinating place! It's still hard to imagine all the wealth this guy had accumulated. A great place to invest a day.

    Lovely place to walk around and enjoy the history of photography and the family. This is a contemplative space / museum so make sure you are in the right frame of mind to enjoy quiet reflection while wandering around the quiet spaces and viewing the award winning photo exhibits.

    Do not park your car around here. Had my car broken into out front along with another car earlier (they had known it happens but did not inform us). Absolutely no help from the security at the museum plus the police force in that area laughed at my situation and got no help from them either. It almost felt like they are working together to heist stolen merchandise (I wouldn't be surprised in Rochester) Please avoid at all cost this place and this area. Don't bother trying to get any help from security or the local police in this area. It's sad to see hardworking people buy equipment to make a living for it to be stolen by worthless thieves who have no goals in life and it's sad to see that our police force to be so useless in times of need or for "supposably" reputable museums to hire such low quality employees to keep there patrons safe. By the way the amount stole was not small it was over $7000

    Apparently the Eastman Museum has one of the best photography collections in the history of the world with over 400,000 photographic objects. Unfortunately, visitors to the museum can only view a few dozen of them. For example, I think there were only about 10 or so from before 1885 on display. In total, a visitor might be able to see only about 100-200 photographs from any era in the entire museum.

    I'm a minor fan of early photography, and my heart sank when I found out that there is one "History of Photography" gallery and discovered it to be so small and sparse. I find it fascinating to look at old photographs to understand their artistic, cultural, and technological significance and how photography changed over time. Unfortunately the Eastman Museum is not a place where I can do that.

    I feel this is a must see in Rochester for anyone interested in history, business, or photography. It's astonishing to see someone like George Eastman build such an empire during his time period. This museum captures that along with a glimpses into his past. My husband and I brought our headphones and dialed in from our cell phones for the audio tour at no extra charge. I highly recommend this so bring your headphones!

    The museum proper is somewhat small but interesting, the house is a beautiful
    Ly restored mansion with one of the largest private organs ( both player and manual modes ) around. The archives ( film, print, photographic and technological) are second to none but require advance arrangements to visit.
    A truly world class museum of photography!

    Today I ran the Eastman House Photo Finish 5K. This is the first year I have focused on organized runs and the 5th 5K I have completed. The Eastman House puts on a fantastic event. The atmosphere was upbeat and carnival like. The sponsors and volunteers made you happy you were participating.

    The temperature was 56 degrees making October a great time to run. I will make this an annual event.

    From one of the inventors of modern photography this house/museum is worth the stop to learn about George Eastman and Kodak and photography. A number of the exhibits change. The house is beautiful, as are the grounds in season. If you have an interest in photography, you need to tour here.

    Such an amazing place. Be sure to take the house tour, or just wander around yourself. We opted for the tour, and wandered later, but the guide we had, Steve, was phenomenal! He brought to life the incredible tale of George Eastman, plus he left us with other valuable trivia and facts gleaned from his life career as a teacher. We left twice as smart as we came! I don't know if he's a volunteer or on staff, but ask for him. You will not be disappointed!
