Welcome back to the Colonel Palmer House as we reopen for tours and activities!  Drop by to enjoy self-guided tours featuring the debut of two new exhibits:  The Faces of Education and A Peek at the 20s.  Visit Mrs. Palmer’s Garden and the Bubbling Over Speakeasy.  Enjoy a laid back summer social at the historic home of the Crystal Lake Historical Society.

 

Facial masks are required inside the Colonel Palmer House.  Maximum house occupancy is 16 guests at one time, so entry may be delayed.  Social distancing guidelines will be strictly adhered to for the safety of our staff, volunteers and visitors.
