According to USA Today, this annual list is compiled by their editors and a panel of subject matter experts.
Twenty historic house museums around the country are chosen each year, and the public can vote daily for their favorite. This year, the list of nominees includes places such as George Washington’s Mount Vernon, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, the Vanderbilt family’s Biltmore Estate, and Elvis Presley’s Graceland.
“With so many other famous and historically important homes on the list, it truly is an honor just to be selected for the competition,” Superintendent Shada said. Last year, Trail End placed number eight in this competition.
Voting has begun and will continue through the morning of Monday, December 2, 2024. The top ten winners will be announced on Friday, December 6. If you’d like to vote for Trail End, please visit wyoparks.info/votetrailend.
The Kendrick Mansion is a 1913 historic house museum located at 400 Clarendon Avenue, Sheridan, on the grounds of Trail End State Historic Site. Trail End is a division of Wyoming State Parks.
