CHRISTMAS CLASSIC!!
I never made it inside so I can't say this is a "fair" review. I came to the house after business hours but I was excited to find that he gate was still open and there were lights highlighting the sign and the leg lamp in the front window (critical memory of the movie).
There isn't very much parking near the spot (other than on the street) but there are "A Christmas Story" businesses nearby where you can buy snacks or a replica of the famous lamp.
All in all, it was all I needed because I was still able to take pictures out front!
Enjoy!
