Frank Lloyd Wright Palmer House

Amazing property with a few things to know. Frank Lloyd Wright homes are always built to be unique so don’t expect typical layout/amenities. The main living space is amazing and always the focal point of his homes… the space blends with the outside environment. That being said it’s an old home so things are not perfect. When you get there or leave during the day it will smell stale. Air out the house via windows and the bathroom/office exhaust fans. That worked for us. Otherwise super cool to live a few days in a piece of history.

It smells old in there and definitely not worth $1700 for two nights with all the old spiderwebs… Great architecture but sad to see how it’s been misused.

It was a privilege to stay at the Palmer House. The house is museum quality - original furniture, art, dinnerware - everything is of the highest quality and authentic, and exactly as Mr Wright planned. The views and perspectives from every room was amazing. The gardens are beautiful - takes a lot of planning to achieve this "natural" look. We especially liked watching the deer feeding on the lawn, and the tea-house is sublime. We had no problems with the owners - their requests are pretty simple - no smoking, use coasters, be careful as everything is over 50 years old. They are very generous to share this priceless piece of art with visitors. An incredible opportunity to stay in a work of art. .

Four of us stayed in this amazing historic house twice. It's the strangest of all Frank Lloyd Wright floor plans: no horizontal right angle anywhere (except kitchen fixtures), only multiples of 60 degrees. Occasionally a bit awkward, but it didn't bother any of us, in fact it's the whole point. The previous renter's review is hilarious. I guess he expected Club Med with servile natives. No concept of how exceptional it is to rent a museum year after year without it being destroyed by yahoos. It's maintained very well, considering. Of course it's a 50's house and has odd shaped beds and strange corners. Duh. BTW, a historic trust forbids changes, like dropping in a modern kitchen (good grief).

A truly unique house and rental experience. A whole home based on equilateral triangles which eschews right angles but still manages to feel like a home you'd like to live in. All the period correct furniture is still here and it creates a time machine like experience. If you're a frank lloyd wright fan, it's worth checking out and maybe staying a few days!

A masterpiece of archeticture and a wonderful preservation of Frank's work. The house is almost entirely equilateral triangles and with no horizontal right angles. The people who run the house are pretty fussy, but for good reason. The house is essentially a museum with many great pieces of furniture inside. I would strongly recommend staying here if you get the chance.

This is not a place for someone wanting a comfortable place to stay for any length of time. It a place for a one time visit to absorb the unusual work of an American icon. The owners are much more concerned about the property then they are about guests and their comfort. They focus on what you can and cannot do on the property so one would expect that the house to be well cared for. It is not. It is filled with dust and spider webs. It has fixtures that fall off of walls, non-existent window screens, no air conditioning and exceptional uncomfortable beds and bathrooms. The beds are in keeping with the design, but that means they are not rectangular nor easy to sleep upon. The bathrooms are small, the doors narrow. There is a maid service available, but it is superficial. The gardens must have been wonderful once, but they have not been well attended. Dead grass, dead plants, hungry mosquitoes. The kitchen is workable, but built in the 1950's. Don't stay here unless you are dedicated to Frank Lloyd Wright and in that case, make your visit short.

If you're a fan of one of America's greatest architects, Frank Lloyd Wright, you're going want to stay here for a weekend! This is one of his finest Usonian Houses.
