Home for the Holidays at Ford House
Edsel & Eleanor Ford House hosts a three-part evening holiday walk and historic home tour on Saturday, November 28, at 5:30 p.m., at Ford House in Grosse Pointe Shores. Stroll illuminated grounds, explore both floors of the Main Residence styled as Eleanor Ford kept it; tickets are scanned at check-in, ages 2 and under free.
Three parts, 60–90 minutes, about one mile on foot. Start at the Visitor Center for a half‑mile lit walk (Formal Garden, Rose Garden, willow lights, Jingle Junction) to the Main Residence. Inside, both floors are open with understated seasonal décor and an optional Santa photo. Walk back along Maple Lane with a stop at the Mistletoe Market for warm drinks and themed gifts from The Shop. The experience has placed in USA TODAY’s 10Best Top Four for holiday historic home tours two years running.

Tickets are scanned at check‑in. Ages 2 and under are free. No dogs (ADA‑defined service animals welcome). No outside food or drink; concessions available along the route.
