Sala 1. Exhibe los muebles de la sala de la familia Pellicer Cámara, fotos de infancia del poeta y objetos personales de su madre, Doña Deifilia como su costurero, con sus hilos y agujas, así como algunos abanicos de la misma.
Sala 2. Esta es la más íntima de las estancias de la casa-museo. Entrando, a mano izquierda, el visitante se encuentra con un tocador y dos roperos de la época. Uno de ellos guarda el ropaje de bautismo y la ropa del diario de Don Carlos, en edad adulta. También se conserva un perchero con cinturones y una bolsa de piel. Ambos, también de su propiedad. En la misma habitación existe una urna con una imagen de la Virgen de la Encarnación, testimonio de la fe católica de la familia, junto con el vestido de novia de la madre del Poeta.
Sala 3. Esta Sala está dedicada a la lectura. Contiene obras de la literatura universal, que el público puede consultar, junto con la obra del poeta. El acervo de las vitrinas consiste en fotografías y documentos personales, así como algunas distinciones que le fueron otorgadas, como por ejemplo, el de Ciudadano Distinguido de la ciudad de Villahermosa, en 1958.
Sala 4. Esta es una réplica de la habitación que ocupara el poeta, en el antiguo Museo de Tabasco, el primero que fundó en este Estado. Los objetos se encuentran exactamente a como él los tenía colocados en el lugar original. Es fácil para el visitante sentir la presencia de este ilustre personaje.
