Martin van Buren was the eighth U.S. president and former NY Governor, amongst other prestigious elected and appointed offices. This house is where he retired after a notable career, in the town of his birth. The tour guide rangers are very knowledgeable about the personage and local history.

Outstanding, knowledgeable, and engaging National Park tour guides lead the tour of two floors of the house. There's a self guided tour of the grounds that is also very informative.
