The site operates as a cultural center and museum today, located at pl. Wł. Reymonta 1 in Kołaczkowo. Visits are possible by appointment, and interested guests should contact ahead of time to arrange their visit.
In the grounds stands a monument erected in 1977 showing Reymont alongside the characters Jagna and Boryna from his most famous work. The sculpture commemorates Chłopi, the novel that won him the Nobel Prize.
