Planetware.com’s glowing review: “Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a Ft. Lauderdale landmark, Bonnet House Museum & Gardens is a mix of art, architecture, history and ecology. The estate covers 36 acres and was once the winter retreat of the Birch/Bartlett family. The historic house was designed by Frederic Clay Bartlett and built in 1920. On display are collections of art and personal treasures. The surrounding grounds of the estate remain a virtual oasis of coastal wilderness and informal gardens, nestled amid the commercial development of the Fort Lauderdale beachfront. Bonnet House Museum & Gardens has survived with remarkable authenticity, reflecting the creative lifestyle of its artist owners and preserving the natural setting of Old South Florida.”
