Memorial Day weekend was amazing at this property. The Flag Field of Heros is so moving.

If you like history and spies you will enjoy the Hale's homestead.

The Nathan Hale Homestead is situated in a beautiful setting in rural Coventry. The grounds are a great place to visit any time of year and they are home to the Coventry Farmers Market held seasonally on Sundays from 10am to 2pm. The Farmers Market has been voted as 'best in Connecticut' by Yankee Magazine. The house was completed in 1776 and contains many Hale artifacts including Nathan's gun and his buckskin covered trunk. The Connecticut Antiquarian Society has done a marvelous Jon maintaining this beautiful property.

Clay Edwards

Not open, and no indication of any activity. Nothing there but buildings.

Esther Travers

Visited during advertised open hours. All locked up with no one to be found. Disappointing.

Danny Leroy

Beautiful home and property

Morgan

The Coventry Farmer’s Market is fun to go to

Laurie Morgan

Farmers market on Sundays!

Thomas Navan

Awsome place to go with the family.

The Nathan Hale Homestead is a fine museum in its' own right. They offer excellent programs (e.g. hearth cooking, Ghost tours), and the history is intriguing. The weekly on-site Farmer's Market has received quite a bit of well-deserved recognition. You need to arrive early as the parking fills up and traffic can be heavy.

Great tour guy. Besides being super hot, he was knowledgeable as well interesting. Would be nice to visit when the Farmer's Market is there, although I am told super busy!

Joseph piccirillo

Great place to visit. Our docent, Barbara, was very knowledgeable. Well restored. Interesting history. Beautiful grounds.

Robert Rastelli

Great historic site. We go weekly for the farmers market in the summer. It's crowded, but a lot of fun.

Michele Deane

Beautiful grounds. Came for Farmers Market. Lots of good stuff.

Diane Barrieau

This is a beautiful place, we attended a Naturalization Ceremony there so it was a fitting setting. We were given the opportunity to tour the homestead while there. It's a step back in time, reminiscent for me of Greenfield Village homes in my home city of Detroit, Michigan, complete w/period garbed guides. Think Sturbridge Village or Mystic Seaport here in the East.

Muito bonito ligacao à terra prodiros naturais fantásticos

Don Chicano

Beautiful grounds and great venders however many people did not appreciate the use of smelly portapots!

Shirlz Delsignore

Interesting part of American History, although those who lead the tour have a limited general knowledge Early American History. It appeared that their info for tour was scripted.

Ruth Duell

Great farmers market.

Kimberly Gervais

Nice old homestead, grounds, forest with walking trails, gardens. Coventry Farmers Market in season on Sundays rocks! Over 50 vendors, food trucks. Dog, kid & family friendly.

Nice wedding spot

Daniel Popp

Coventry farmers market is a great time for the whole family. The food is to die for a must try on Sunday afternoon.

Sandy Plumadore

I grew up around the corner from here and have visited often. I love the feeling of history that I get there.

jennifer morrissette

You should definitely check out the museum at Nathan Hale they got some great artifacts that a couple of metal detectorists have gave them plus other things they have gotten it's a great experience

Ernest Adams

Friendly, helpful staff, plenty of parking on the grass, but no reserved handicapped parking which was a problem for a few of the guests. People who had to set up equipment had a hard time getting near where they had to set up. The guests were well treated. Recommended for a wedding or other special occasions.

Lydia Lagerberg

Sundays Farmers Market is great. Very well organized and so many vendors. Was better than the fair

Susan Fiegel

Had a great tour with Matt. He is very informative.

Aaron Weintraub

Come check out the farmer's market in Sunday to hear music and eat at great food trucks

Wayne Doucette

Great farmers market

Jack Bienvenue

Very informational, good place for school field trips. Also, the farmer’s market is very good.

romanpolaski

A smaller historical site run by the state but not insignificant. Lots of history here and the docents were happy to see us. We visited when an encampment of soldiers, both British and Colonial, put on some supurb demonstrations. Low admission fee helps. Be sure to include this site in addition to other site visits during a day trip.

Susan Way

You should go!

Peter Moon

Perfect place to spend a few minutes on Memorial day

George Woo

Excellent

Marie King

Omg best farmers market in the area

Robert Tripp

Great place to take the kids. Very historic. Go on a Sunday and make a day of it at the farmers market.

Daniel Urban

Nathan wasn't there when we stopped in, but there were some people who showed us around his house and told us some very interesting things about his life and his home. Worth checking out.

Andrea Gladden-Postles

Expensive to visit the inside of the house. Entrance not clearly marked. They do their best for disabled parking and entrances.

Heather Bonelli

Wonderful location for a farmers market and such a beautiful drive through the back roads of CT to get there.

Olou-Femy Satty

Beautiful avenue! Ideal place for indoor or outdoor events, formal and informal. It is wonderful CT landmark. Great stuff!!

Zack

This place was locked when we got here. Their hours said they would be open online, but they weren't and neither was the Strong Homestead. When we called, the recording was for May hours of operation, it is now November. If I hadn't have driven an hour to be here, I wouldn't be so upset, but alas, I did. My advice is to call first.

Harold Wilso

Best Farmers Market! Excellent Vibes, Enjoy the food, music and surrounding's!

Jason Barker

Hours of operations said it was opened today but it was locked up with no one around.

Mel Nemcek

My husband and I visited the homestead for the first time on Saturday. I love historic buildings and places. The tour guide Matt was awesome, he took his time and answered all questions we had and was very knowledgeable about the Hale family. The facility has taken great care in acquiring authentic Hale artifacts, BRAVO! Would recommend this place for anyone who likes historic landmarks.

jennifer renee

They were closed but we definitely want to go visit. We could even rent for events :)
