| - My airbnb was about 2 blocks from the Campbell House Museum, which meant it was my first stop on my first morning in Toronto. I love house museums, so maybe I'm biased, but I definitely do not agree with the very low ratings others have given this attraction.
I arrived just after 9:30am on a Friday morning and was the only tourist there... the $6 fee was not in effect; rather, it was by donation. I gave them $10 since, as I said, I love and appreciate house museums. I got my own private tour (though this was established prior to my making any donation), and the young woman who took me around (not in period dress, thank goodness) was friendly, informative, and had a great sense of humor. I'd estimate that my tour lasted around 1/2 an hour.
Beautiful house, beautiful grounds, friendly staff. If you're into house museums, don't miss this one!
