The Mound House is a historical home turned museum. It sits atop an archaeological site, known as the Estero Island Site, which was excavated in the early 2000s. The mound itself is a midden, meaning it is made up of discarded items, and was purposely piled up by the Calusa Indians starting roughly 2000 years ago. Archaeologists study the materials found in the mound to gain insight and understanding about the Calusa people, how they lived, and their culture.

This place is awesome for taking photos, seeing history, checking out all the native plants, flowers, and foliage. The Mound House also has a natural butterfly garden and a pathway full of unique greenery. I also like the docks where you can get perfect view of the back bay. There is also a historic museum on the grounds that tells an interesting story. The grounds are FREE and I believe the museum is $12. ⭐⭐⭐

This is a truly special museum. In their own words ... "Mound House is a unique archaeological and historical site on Fort Myers Beach located directly on Estero Bay and offers a variety of programs for local residents, visitors and school groups. Experience this one of a kind museum that sits atop a 2,000 year old Calusa Indian Shell Mound."
