Review & FAQ:

Point Ellice House Museum & Gardens is a gorgeous historic Victorian home dating back to 1861, when it was built by the illustrious O'Reilly family. The house was their home for over a century until 1975, when it was sold to the province of British Columbia. Every single one of the family's possessions was left behind in the house, including furniture, clothing, board games, silverware, and musical instruments. The items on display today are all from the period of 1890 to 1920. It is one of the largest intact collections of Victorian objects. Tours are self guided.
