The House of Presidents car park is next to the Citrus Tower & a giant replica of the Presidents at Mount Rushmore.
A Statue of Liberty, and President Lincoln sits outside the front entrance of the House of Presidents, Museum. Another Statue of Liberty Stands on the end of the building facing the US-27 main Road.

"Walking through the front door, it’s apparent this isn’t any normal museum. Life-sized wax statutes of Presidents George W. Bush, George Bush, Franklin Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln greet visitors to the Presidents Hall of Fame in Clermont, Fla.

Complete with displays from all 42 Presidents, their first ladies and world famous authentic miniature replicas of the White House, the museum is rich in Americana history. While museum staff offer tours to the young and old, clearly students hold a special place in the Presidents Hall of Fame." Text source: (visit link)

"Presidents Hall of Fame is packed full of kitschy, interesting memorabilia. It has a real folk art component, since many of the miniatures are hand-made and show the workman's handiwork. Real artifacts like Tom Thumb's carriage and Lincoln's death mask (replica) exist side-by-side with hand-carved Christmas and circus displays. Push a button and dioramas light up, figures move and music plays. A constant running video of Ronald Reagan's funniest jokes sets the scene in the background.

The lighting is dim, but there is just so much to see from dresses of the first ladies to White House china. Being Florida, of course they had a voting machine from the 2000 election. And ephemera from the 2008 election, including an Obama cut-out in the oval office! Don't miss Kramer/Lincoln!" Text Source: (visit link)
