Sagtikos Manor
The tour given by a few different staff in different portions of the property is quite interesting. It may take more than one hour. You may make use of your library's museum pass to make the tour free.
There are walled garden, cemetery and Carriage House (outside of it) which you can always visit (free).

Kingsland Homestead
I came here because I saw this place (Queens Historical Society) in the list of possibilities for the recent Culture Pass. I visited it during one of my recent trips to Flushing.
I don't find it too interesting. It shows the history of the King's family and relatives and some horse racing in Queens ... But I don't feel that it really gives you a sense of Queens' history.
The house is not really that great inside or outside, in my very subjective opinion. This place seems to be opened only during Tue., Sat. and Sun. and only during 2:30 -4:30 pm.
I visited both floors in this house and it's said that you may arrange a time to do research but I wonder how many people really do that every year ?! But of course, it's probably all just due to my ignorance :-(
