We recently had our wedding at The Kelton House and overall, it was a wonderful experience! The venue itself is absolutely beautiful—exactly what we were looking for with its old-world charm and intimate garden setting. With about 75 guests, the space was the perfect size...Read More

We had the most perfect wedding ceremony at Kelton House (our reception was at another location). It made for a beautiful setting and the areas to get ready were all perfect and beautiful. Our guests were even able to tour the museum before the ceremony!

The Columbus Library was having a Holiday Trolley Hop and this was one of the stops! The interior was lovely and had lots of dainty antique dishware and furniture. One room had a Lego cathedral that a woman and her son had spent two years constructing!...Read More

The Kelton House was an absolute delight to visit; from antebellum Ohio to the 1960's, much of the history of central Ohio can be learned here. The tour guides were knowledgeable and friendly, and the surrounding area is beautiful as well.

We called on a Wednesday because we had some time before we went to the airport. The docent said she was there & to come by & knock. We had a lovely tour of the mansion. The docent was very knowledgeable.

Such a rich history. Had a very abnormal experience in the dining room. I felt a sudden burst of tears and started bawling my eyes out during the tour. Not sure what happened but I felt fine as soon as I left the...Read More

If you're interested in Ohio history or the Underground Railroad, this is the stop for you. A nicely preserved home with a great story. Plan about two hours to really see everything, but you could also have a wonderful trip in just an hour. Insider...Read More

We really enjoyed our visit. The costumed guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the local history. Unlike many similar places, we were allowed to walk in the rooms and see the historical items up close. We visited on a Sunday afternoon...probably...Read More

I can not recommend the Kelton House highly enough. We had our intimate wedding ceremony here for 13 people and it was perfect. The gardens are gorgeous and the spaces for getting ready were everything we needed. The staff was great to work with. James...Read More

A beautifully managed and organized house museum; mostly original artifacts of the Kelton family. My guide was a very humble person. A little over-priced than I expected.

We went to a Juneteenth poetry and soul food event, and it was amazing. Very cool historic home and stop on the Underground Railroad!

Kathe did a wonderful job telling the story of this home and the Kenton family. The window sconces, repurposed from a beautiful bed, are stunning. The unique hand painted china are the highlight of the dining room and the peaceful garden is...Read More

A small but packed museum, a recreation of the Kelton house as it would have been in the 19th century. Would recommend joining the tour to really understand more about what you are seeing (in fact, not sure if you can enter otherwise). House manager...Read More
