About this spot

Ray House Tour Stop

The Ray House Tour Stop is a popular point of interest for visitors to Missouri's national parks. Located in the Wilson's Creek National Battlefield in Springfield, Missouri, the Ray House is a restored Civil War-era farmhouse that offers a unique glimpse into the lives of soldiers and civilians during the war.

Visitors to the Ray House can take a guided tour of the property, which includes the main house, outbuildings, and surrounding grounds. The house is furnished with period furniture and artifacts, giving visitors a sense of what life was like during that time.

One of the unique features of the Ray House is its role in the Battle of Wilson's Creek, which was fought on the property in 1861. The house served as a field hospital for both Union and Confederate soldiers, and visitors can see the bullet holes and other evidence of the battle that still exist on the property today.

In addition to its historical significance, the Ray House is also a beautiful example of pre-Civil War architecture. Visitors can admire the intricate woodwork, decorative plaster ceilings, and other unique features of the house.

Overall, the Ray House Tour Stop is a must-see for anyone interested in the Civil War, American history, or architecture. Its unique blend of historical significance and architectural beauty make it a fascinating destination for visitors of all ages.

Responsible visitation & Leave No Trace

Know before you go
Check the operator's site (BLM, NPS, state agency, or private owner) for access rules, permits, and seasonal closures before driving out.
Stay on trail
Many points of interest sit in fragile ecosystems. Stick to marked paths to protect vegetation and prevent erosion.
Respect wildlife
Observe from a distance, never feed wildlife, and give nesting birds and denning mammals plenty of space.
Pack it in, pack it out

Leave what you find
Don't take rocks, plants, fossils, or artifacts. Federal law protects cultural and natural resources on public land.
