Edison & Ford Winter Estates
Set up to preserve the home, botanical gardens, and laboratory of Thomas Edison as well as the home of Henry Ford, the Edison & Ford Winter Estate will transport you back in time. When you visit "Seminole Lodge," built in you enter a world unlike any you have ever seen.
