If you're in Laramie, this is a place well worth a stop to see! Stop in the carriage house behind the mansion to get a ticket for a tour that starts on the top of each hour when they are open. The mansion is an amazing example of Victorian architecture and it is filled with period antiques. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed the visit.

The Laramie Plains Museum at Ivinson Mansion is a lovely, 19th century house that's been carefully restored to reflect the height of its Victorian-era opulence. The docents and curator are knowledgeable and guide the visitors through the museum in a way that tells a story, beginning on the ground floor with the Ivinsons' births, arrival in America, and relocation to the West and following their lives as Laramie, and the Wyoming Territory, developed. The tour lasts approximately an hour and the docent has a prepared interpretation for each room. After they finish discussing the room and a few highlights from the artifacts within it, they pause to see if anyone has any questions so that people can get answers about anything in the space about which they wish to know more. They point out items specific to the Ivinsons as well as those from Laramie or elsewhere in Wyoming, but everything in the living spaces is carefully chosen to reflect a standard of living in the late Victorian/Edwardian age. The third floor serves as a museum for Laramie, with examples of different ranching tools, Native American artifacts, and items from the Union Pacific Railroad. Well-worth taking the time to visit on an afternoon!
There was no halloween event. We planned our whole day around it but it was just full price, regular tours. Not something we wanted to do during halloween. Everyone was disappointed.
Beautiful outdoor area. My wife's fandom group had a marriage vow renewal ceremony there. "Marry me in Laramie"
Amazing historical spot with many interesting stories. A must-see if you find yourself stopping in or passing through Laramie.
Great old home with lots of historical information about the original owner, the girls school that occupied the building for about 30 years and general history of the area. Very enjoyable.
Thoroughly enjoyable tour with an amazing young docent. Well worth the price of admission.
