The Ronald Reagan Boyhood Home Tour

The Ronald Reagan boyhood home is a free home tour in Dixon, Illinois. Ronald Reagan lived here during many formative years of his life, and the tour showcases many of these moments!

Dixon, Illinois is less than one hour southwest of Rockford, Illinois. This makes for a great day trip! Tours include a short video, walk through the house, and a small bag of jelly beans at the end (Reagan’s favorite).

Nearby places to visit include the Veteran’s Memorial (complete with a tank, plane, helicopter, and more military vehicles) and Coffee Crush (good food and espresso).
