The Stickley Museum at Craftsman Farms
Gustav Stickley's Arts and Crafts log house, a National Historic Landmark.
Craftsman Farms was built between 1908 and 1917 by Arts and Crafts designer Gustav Stickley as his self-sufficient farm and craft school. The centerpiece is the Log House, constructed of chestnut logs felled on site and local stone, with a 50-foot living room and an oversize kitchen at its heart.
Stickley left in 1915 after his furniture company’s bankruptcy. The Wurlitzer Farny family owned the property until 1989, when Parsippany-Troy Hills acquired it through eminent domain.
The interior is accessible only by guided tour (included with admission). The site is a National Historic Landmark and on the National Register of Historic Places. The grounds, gift shop, and small museum building are walk-in.
Postal address note: Mail is addressed to Morris Plains, but the site is physically in Parsippany-Troy Hills. GPS directions from Morristown run about 15 minutes east via Route 10.
