Arlene MartinApril 20, 2016The home of Andrew Jackson is an amazing place. The grounds are beautiful and the house is remarkable to see. Great historical landmark to take in while visiting Nashville.
Divya MulanjurDecember 27, 2016Great piece of history. The house tour is done by very experienced people and they answer all of your questions. Very interesting and worth a visit when in Nashville.
Mr. TeddyNovember 23, 2015Fun to see how 99% of things were are original from Andrew's life! Quite fun to see!! Impressive! I only wish the rooms were open like othe places like the Belmont Mansion!
Jeff BJune 7, 2019This is a MUST! So much history cant believe how much is original. Have to look at the 200 year old “wall paper” Do this right take 3-4 hrs to see all if not that much time go straight to the house.
Travis StathamAugust 14, 2018Confusing museum with too many pop outs. I learned the most during the short film. The wallpaper in the mansion was probably my favorite part, 182 years old and gorgeous blues.
Scott BryantOctober 4, 2016Really amazing experience here. This is a must see spot when in Nashville, you will learn a ton about our 7th pres. The staff is super helpful and informative.
Suzanne E JonesDecember 30, 2014Beautiful home and grounds. I love the family cemetary and the fact that his slave was loved so much that he was burried beside President Jackson
ᴡ HandyNovember 4, 2014Take the lantern night tour to get a great/eerie view of the mansion (they let you take pictures at night!)
Carolina RevillaFebruary 10, 2014Great history tour of Andrew Jackson's life and home. If you have small children ensure to bring a sling or baby carrier as strollers are not allowed inside the mansion.
Dustin SoperSeptember 28, 2018President Andrew Jackson's former home. Very good photography opportunities on the grounds and the tour guides are super knowledgeable!
Lesley EspinosaJanuary 4, 2015Beautiful place!! Go early because you will have to walk alot to explore every part of it! Worth it 👍
Laurie HillmanJanuary 25, 2011I used to work at the Hermitage if you love American History or just love antiques this is a plantation home for you.. Ask alot of questions as this home is loaded with items I would also tell guest
Jerry StarnesMay 13, 2016Great history lesson! Unfortunately, we had to cut our visit short due to thunderstorm. We'll be back!
Dustin LeeOctober 15, 2017Way more interesting than you'd expect. Does a great job of presenting information in a neutral way.
Katie KellerAugust 1, 2014Very educational place full of American history. The audio tour is excellent.
Princess ConsuelaOctober 28, 2016Definitely recommend the extra $11 for the carriage tour - it's so charming!

Tony JonesJune 19, 2012Bad policy. You have to pay FULL price just to walk on the grounds and see the exterior of the house only and visit the graves. Insane. It should be half price at the most without going into the home
Tyler JonesDecember 27, 2014There are three things to know about Jackson. He killed the Bank, he killed the Indians, and he killed the British.
Ashley R.September 19, 2013Really awesome that most of the furniture is original. Don't go during summer time.
BoB DarnellJuly 3, 2019Highly recommend visiting. We paid up for a VP tour that was guaranteed to have a max of 12 guests. Tour had 17 ???? That sucked.
Ron TarafaAugust 21, 2016Good for wasting the afternoon with out of town guest ... Bring your walking shoes- Michael Atchley, DDSOctober 20, 2020Andrew Jackson’s Hermitage at 7 minutes drive to Dental Bliss Hermitage
Steven ConeAugust 29, 2014Make sure to ask about the Confederate Soldier Home that was once on the grounds.
Jeff RayvidJune 11, 2013Nicest house in town. No student discount is rough though. Not sure General Jackson would approve of that.
Celeste HenkelmannSeptember 18, 2016This was such a disappointing and disheartening experience. Inefficient process, uninformed staff, INCOMPLETE information on tours (seriously, no mention of Trail of Tears??), and dead plants.
- Suzanne E JonesDecember 30, 2014Your the whole grounds behind the house. It's a beautiful site and walk
