A fun place to visit. I found some very interesting information there that I had never known before. The grounds were beautiful, the gift shop had some fun items, and the museum was very quiet and peaceful.

Nicely done exhibits with excerpts from real pioneer diaries, journals, and letters. Many stories are illustrated with period artifacts as well. The tour guides do a wonderful job with children. You get a real appreciation of frontier life in the 1800s and how hard it was to survive.

My wife wanted to stop at one of the start points of the Oregon trail since will be in Oregon in the spring to visit family where we'll visit a museum at the end of the Oregon trail. Learning more if the history through diary entries from done if the people who made the trek by covered wagon was very interesting. While schoolbooks mentioned the hardships of the journey but reading the diary entries have a much deeper understanding of what people went through to make a new life out West.

So much history, and shared in such a relatable way. Fantastic displays, covering the Santa Fe, Oregon and California Trails. Very interactive, great for getting kids interested.

I took a quick trip there right before closing so I didn't get to watch the video but they were nice enough to give me a return pass so I could check it out. They had a lot of information and some great interactive displays for kids. Gift shop was great too!
