Remarkably well preserved house and library with attractive gardens that you can stroll around. The tour guide, Alison, was deeply knowledgeable about the Adams family and clearly loves the house and the many stories it holds. This tour was the best part of our trip to the area.

Loved all three houses! Guides Richard and Alison were fabulous. It was so fun to see how much Alison loved history and the Adams Family. We spent a week seeing Boston’s sights and this was definitely one of our favorite stops. We were glad we went to the visitor’s center and watched the movie, as well. We did not go on the church tour but walked into the sanctuary and a nice man who was a member of the church took us downstairs to the crypts to see the resting place of John and Abigail and John Quincy and Louisa. Very cool.

We really enjoyed our tours. The trolley was not running the day of our tour, so we started at the birthplace houses, then drove over to Peacefield. The houses are very different and show different periods in the Adams' lives and cover 4 generations. Peacefield is a real jewel, especially that library. The tour guides were excellent, rattling off facts and quotations. Afterwards we went back to the visitors center to watch the film, but didn't feel like we learned much more than we already had, so would not go out of my way for that; also, it is totally not obvious how to get from the parking garage to the visitors center, which was very weird. There are NO bathrooms at the houses, so plan accordingly . We probably spent 3 hours in total, wrapping up just in time to tour the United First Parish Church (where some of the family is buried) across the street from the visitors center.

We recently enjoyed watching the HBO series on John Adams. We happened to be on the South Shore of Boston (visiting from NH) for another reason, so decided to visit the Adams historical sites as part of that time. Since it is Wintertime we were only able to walk around the Adams farm at Peacefield. (the house was not open).
Fortunately the Park Service visitors center was open, and Ranger Jason provided insight into the times as well as the Adams men and other historical figures of the period. There is a gift shop which has a good selection of books should further study be desired. We'll be back in the Summer when the tours resume.

We booked the tour of the John Adams and John Quincy Adams Birthplaces online at Recreation.gov. The homes are run by the National Parks but the website in outsourced. The website is quirky, to say the least. It took me a couple of tries before I figured out how to reserve a slot for the tour. I grabbed the last two spots in the tour group. When I was all done with it, I had to pay by Credit Card the full $1 per person tour fee. haha, a lot of work for a little $...
When we arrived at 141 Franklin St Quincy MA for the tour it ended up only being 3 couples, 6 people on the tour. Either they are keeping the tour groups very small or most people that book the $1 tours don't care about losing their $1 fee.
In any event, the tour guide was great, very informative and encouraged questions from the group. I would highly recommend taking the tour of the two homes.

I always love learning about the founders and visiting Presidential homes. See where The Adams were born and lived and learn all about their family and contributions. The garden is lovely at the old house, as is the carriage house. The staff was very friendly. Visitor center is more down town and it’s closed. Call ahead to make reservations to tour the birth houses. They only let 5-6 go at once through the house. Hopefully they will open the old house for tours again soon. Everything in there is original to the home as it was in the 18th and 19th century. Neat place!

We only had time to go to the Visitor Center area in central Quincy. The center itself is still closed due to Covid (and indeed on this Sunday in New England everything else in that Galleria complex was closed as well). But you can wander around Hancock Adams Common, looking at the fountains and the statues and the historical plaques and stepping into the history of Hancock Cemetery. And the 'Church of the Presidents' was open immediately after their Sunday morning services. We parked at the Coddington School building, which itself is interesting to see.

I’m a huge history nerd, so this was high on my list of places to visit. We did a tour of the two birthplace houses and I really enjoyed it. Our guide was Chris and he was very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about his job. Be sure to make reservations in advance if you want to go inside. We did not go to Peacefield house, as the trolleys are not yet up and running due to COVID and it’s a 30min walk from the other houses. You also aren’t able to go inside there yet, but the grounds are open.

My teenage sons loved their informative tour of the father’s house & the separate son’s house. Our docent was a lovely young lady who was very patient with us & knowledgeable. Our tour lasted about an hour, I believe. You have to book 24-hrs. In advance and meet the park rangers outside at a booth between the homes.

A lot of history in Quincy but transportation is needed as the birthplace homes (both side by side), the burial sites, and the family home are very spread out. All inside tours and visits were off due to Covid but the grounds were all open. The birthplace homes I believe were opening the first week in August but the Family home is unable to be ventilated properly so it will remain closed. The staff at the homes were all friendly and very knowledgeable. If you are into US history, old homes, or just want a relaxing day visit Quincy!

I will be visiting in a few weeks, when the homes are closed. I know the visitor center is open still though. Is it worth visiting during that time? Can you still walk on the grounds when the homes are closed? I would like to be able to get a good view/picture of the outside of the homes.

The grounds surrounding the historic homes are open from dawn to dusk all year, so you will be able to visit to take photographs. At the visitor center there is a 30 minute film which will give more insight on the homes and family. Maps are available at the visitor center to help you explore the grounds. I hope this helps!

do you have to take the trolley tour to see the homes, can you drive by them on your own?

Hi,
The previous respondent is right. I have purchased tickets at the National Parks visitor center in Quincy Center, then I've driven to the "big house" at Peace Field and gone on the tour. There is plenty of on-street parking at that site (not quite as much at the birth homes but not too bad) and then I've just hopped in my car for the 10-minute ride home.

I will be in Boston in September and would like to visit the Adams National Park. We are not renting a car so what is the best way to get there!

You can take the subway, call the "T" in Boston. On the red line, get off at Quincy Center. Exit on the Hancock Street site. After walking across a green space you can then cross Hancock Street and arrive directly at the Visitor Center. Tickets can be purchased at that location. I hope this helps!

Planning to be in the area very beginning of October. Heard they do not take reservations. How long a wait could we expect?

Waiting time will vary with season. Fall shouldn't be bad. Worst wait times are the summer months. The visitor center has lots of information on history as well as a great gift shop & clean restrooms. Waiting flies by. You get taken by trolley bus to the first 2 houses and then you board again to head to Peacefield and the Stone Library. When you are in the library...take a long look around...close your eyes and you can see Predident Adams pouring over the books! Very cool

Since I wrote my review in which I said there was no downtown parking at the site ,I found out that the side street on the corner where the NPS office is at 1350 Hancock St has parking in a garage on the right at the end of the street . Take your ticket to the NPS office to get it stamped + it is free parking with limits to encourage NPS visitors !

The carriage house is located behind the "main" house of Peacefield, on the right. The Adams library is off to the left.
