Sagamore Hill National Historic Site, home of Theodore Roosevelt, 26th US President, will return to its 5 days per week off season schedule on Tuesday, September 8 through Memorial Day 2009. The public buildings will be open Wednesday through Sunday and will be closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. The grounds of Sagamore Hill are 7 days per week year round from dawn to dusk and are free of charge.
Tours of the Theodore Roosevelt Home are offered Wednesday through Sunday on the hour from 10AM to 4PM at a cost of $5 for adults; those 15 and under are free. Tickets are sold on a first-come-first-served basis each day beginning at 9AM. Each tour is limited to fourteen persons and advance reservations are not taken. Weekends and holiday weekends are usually very busy so if you are coming at one of these times plan to visit in the morning since we often sell all available tickets for the house tours by the early afternoon.
The Visitor Center and Gift Shop are open Wednesday through Sunday from 9 to 5 where one may purchase tour tickets, National Park Passes and retail items.
The Theodore Roosevelt Museum in Old Orchard is open Wednesday through Sunday from 10AM to 5PM and there is no admission charge for the museum. The exhibits tell the story of Theodore Roosevelt’s early and public life.
