Bezoekers komen om na te denken over Lincolns nalatenschap en de waarden die hij vertegenwoordigde. Het park biedt een kijkje in het plattelandsleven van het begin van de 1800s, met wandelpaden en educatieve tentoonstellingen die context geven aan zijn opvoeding en de historische betekenis van zijn presidentschap.
