Wyckoff House & Association Review

The museum is self is nothing special but the area is a interesting garden. Very kids oriented museum.

Thanks again for showing us the oldest house in Brooklyn

Wonderful staff and great place to "get out of the city"

Enjoyed my visit with kids, the sunflowers are beautiful.

Very informative and interactive for the kids for the activities they do have. They are currently replacing the roof on the building so it has scaffolding around the main house but that's not a big deal unless you wanted pictures that didn't include that kinda stuff.

Deceive, deceive us, a wilderness, will not go again

It would be like a trip to the past. I'll visit it soon. For sure.

You can buy wild berries and fruits, a family project that has a museum

It's the oldest house in NY State with an interesting history.

Visits to the Wyckoff House in 1963 and 2002 instilled in me the preservation instinct to prevent the senseless obliteration of our history. Here on an urban landscape is a precious little acreage that reminds us of our ancient agricultural heritage. Thanks be to the association of descendants who rescued the property and house from almost certain destruction in the 20th century. Hopefully, the temptation to spoil the rural ambience by building a modern visitors center on the property will be resisted in the 21st century, and the goal of descendants will now be focussed on acquisition and improvement of adjacent properties.

I am Hollander, I'm proud that my parents are the founders of that country. Cheese and Mills. Harlem, Brooklyn, New Utrecht, Long Island, Staten Island, Hempstead, Flushing, Williamsburg, Wallstreet, Amsterdam Avenue. Proud Proud.

Orange Above!!! Oranje Boven!!!

I have been meaning to visit this place for 25 years and finally stopped in about two months ago. After a thoroughly fascinating tour I went straight home and made a donation to the museum! It's a miracle that this house has survived for hundreds of years and we are fortunate it is now under the watchful eye of the Wyckoff Museum. For you cyclists, there's a nice bike lane along Clarendon Road--about a 45 minute trip from the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Very cool old farmhouse all the way out in Brooklyn. Not just a little bit old, the oldest! It goes back 341 years. Its by tour only, but they have seasonal events in the garden and you can check out the house then as well. A cool look into Brooklyn's history. Only advice- bring your car, its a train and bus ride away, but parking is easy enough in the neighborhood.

This is a lovely location for hosting an event. The staff was really nice

Very nice old house. The staff there are just the best and are very knowledgeable about the house and surrounding area. Went today to watch Avengers Endgame and it was great! There was pizza, popcorn and drinks! The kids had a blast.

Beautiful setting for outdoor events. The staff was very friendly & willing to assist.

This is a landmark and of one of the oldest wooden houses in Brooklyn. The location (was) originally considered Canarsie (the name of Native American Indian Tribe of the area) but colonized by the early European settlers.

Every Saturday community events take place from arts & crafts, waffle making, lantern making and so much more.

A nice place to have an event. A great Brooklyn secret

It's a *really* old house. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Great experience for people living in Brooklyn and all over! You learn so much!

Great little monument to the Dutch ancestry of New York, amidst tyrehops, garages, busy roads etc. We got a private tour from the girl in charge of the educational program (in 2014).

The oldest building in NYC. Built by Peter Wyckoff, who settled in Dutch New Amsterdam in 1637.

I love attending parties in there out door garden. Great out door space

Tons of free activities for kids and adults. I did a tie dye class here about two years ago .. pretty cool

Wonderful for families...the kids would love the fireside cooking and playground...the adults the herb garden and very active beehives.

The staff is extremely Nice and caring towards children

Thank you for preserving this heritage and history! Very interesting.

Great place to come and learn about Brooklyn history
