Edsel & Eleanor Ford House
$110
Various Dates
1 Day Trip
Featuring:
- Edsel & Eleanor Ford House (2 hour self guided tour of the home and the grounds)
There will be docents throughout the home to answer questions. The gift shop is at the Visitors Center and there is also a shuttle available on the grounds.
The Edsel & Eleanor Ford House tells the story of the home life of a prominent American family. The Fords were cultural, social and economic leaders in an era of great optimism, as well as a turbulent time of economic depression and world war. They were nationally prominent and they owned more than one house, but Southeast Michigan was their home. Here they built their final residence along the shores of Lake St. Clair, at a place known locally as Gaukler Pointe. Their impressive yet unpretentious home is where they raised and nurtured their four children (Henry II, Benson, Josephine and William) in a safe and loving environment.
The Fords wanted a setting for their home that provided both wide-open and intimate outdoor spaces, with special places for sports, relaxation, nature and gatherings. Jens Jensen, one of America's foremost landscape designers and conservationists, designed the Ford House garden landscape between 1926 - 1932. Known as the master of the naturalistic approach to landscaping, Jensen's design style combines woodlands, meadows and wetlands in such a natural way that guests are usually not conscious of any man-made design.
