    Can you believe that I'm from Wisconsin, but I've never visited The House on the Rock? The carousel room was UNBELIEVABLE! Thanks Mr. Jordan!

    I have never heard of this place but I'm glad I've heard of it now! This has got to be one of the best places you've ever visited. It's almost overwhelming! What a great place to decompress. Thank you for that awesome tour!!

    I'm fortunate enough to only live about 2 hours away from The House on the Rock. Every 5 years or so, I venture down to take a look. It's all so overwhelming every time. I love to see new people experience it, your whole video I was saying to myself "wait till he gets to the carousel room"! Glad you enjoyed this insane creation!

    Oh I'm so glad that you came to the house on the rock. I was kind of hoping you would at some point and I had a feeling that it would blow your mind. Been there a few times. I don't live too far away. Thank you for vlogging this. Totally awesome man

    My wife and I went there is past summer. It is amazing, I think everyone needs to see this place at least once. We were in there for at least 3+ hours, we were completely exhausted when we left. Great video Thanks for taking us on your adventure.

    Someone has probably already mentioned this, but The House on the Rock is featured in Neil Gaiman's American Gods, a book, as well as TV series, that takes place in roadside attractions across America. Thanks, Jordan, for allowing me to see this awesome place.

    The way the den and kitchen area is lit and combined with the playing of Bolero reminds me of the set to create the mood used for the first time Bo Derek and Dudley Moore hook up in "10." 7:40 is the theme to the Godfather. 16:00, Makin Whoopee was first recorded by Eddie Cantor in 1928. It has been referenced or covered 29 times since. It was used in the Fabulous Baker Boys (1989).

    Jordan, my husband and I just returned from a wonderful vacation inspired by the Chattanooga trip you featured few months ago. We stayed at the Chattanooga Choo Choo, and enjoyed the Alabama Fan Club museum. We visited a lot of museums and parks while in the area. We wouldn't have thought of this destination without your vlog. Thank you for expanding our horizons!

  • @allisonmarlow184
    @allisonmarlow184 Před rokem +1

    I don’t live far and have been there many times starting as a little kid. I’m smiling big on the inside as you get excited for each section you are encountering. I just keep thinking…keep going! Just you wait!

  • @judywhidden8282
    @judywhidden8282 Před rokem +1

    Been there twice last time summer 1992. They were doing work in a area so couldn't see it. The Merry-go-round was the end of the tour. They had a room of glass that went out over the bluff and you could walk out over the bluff. The room narrowed out to a point and part of the floor was glass and you could see the bluff under your feet. Was very cool. It does take awhile to go thru the whole tour. Enjoyed seeing it again. Thank you for the memories.

  • @jillczerwinski8870
    @jillczerwinski8870 Před rokem +4

    Brings back alot of memories! As a kid I'd dream of living in that house. My favorite animatron music was "The Mikado". It looks like the Foundation has really expanded the collections to beyond. The flat rocks you see in the house are Lannon stone from the quarries of Lannon, WI. You are correct- in person is a much more intense experience. That area of WI is gorgeous and fun to explore: Mt. Horeb with the trolls, Blue Mound with the Cave of the Mounds. Thanks for the vlog!

    Wow, this was so cool! I grew up not more then 80 miles from this place and went many times. The first time I was 5 or 6, the last time I went was in the 90's. I think I enjoyed seeing it with you more then when I was alone and hearing your reaction. The last time I was there the carousel room was no where near finished and I was amazed by it today watching your program. Now I live 3 states away and will probably never get back to see it again so I was very happy to go through it with you Jordan thank you.

    I loved this. Thank you Jordan. I just messaged my son and sent him a link to your video. He just recently moved to that area and has been complaining how bored he was. Well, I don't think he'll be bored going to visit this place. I hope to see it myself someday. Just too much to cover in a video and I agree, there's no way a video could possibly do it justice. I'm definitely intrigued though!

    I just in the area last week, Jordan. Glad you like it . When I was on my honeymoon in 1978 I was brushed by the guy that built the house. Grumpy, very unfriendly. Went through a hidden door, and did not return. I loved all the things, but there is so much more stuff now. The story behind the builder and Frank Loyd Wright is interesting, check it out. The cave in the area is super also.

    What an incredible place!! It's now on my list of places to visit.
    Like you said, you're not trying to give people free tours and tip the businesses off. Rather, you're just trying to whet people's appetites for these places and others like them, as seeing them in videos just isn't the same as seeing them in person.
    If I do ever get my passport, I shall definitely go to Wisconsin to see this place.
    I also want to see the Winchester House out in California, but this place - wow!! I'm sure I'll be able to spend all day there.
    The indoor town is my favourite part. 🤗
