Telling the story of Edsel and Eleanor Ford and their family through their historic home on the shores of Lake St. Clair. We offer tours, events, and experiences at this nonprofit National Historic Landmark. Edsel Ford was the only child of Henry Ford, and he built his grand home in the style of the Cotswold villages in England. Surrounded by 87 acres of scenic lakeside grounds, the home and landscape are open for tours in all seasons. The home was designed by prominent Detroit architect Albert Kahn and Jens Jensen, one of America's foremost landscape designers and conservationists. It is filled with original antique furnishings, as well as art from the Fords' vast collection. Ford House also hosts popular full-estate events, including Outdoor Summer Concerts on the shore of Lake St. Clair, Home for the Holidays lighted walk, a children's Halloween event called Little Goblins, and so much more!
