  • A great place to get a taste of Oregon and Oregon Trail history. Very interesting to see what life was during the time of the Oregon Trail and early settler life in Oregon.

  • Although this doesn't look like a fort it is what's left. We were greeted outside and were shown inside, they even held the door for us. After a short explanation about the fort we were on our way...

  • A fun place to visit and some nice people to chat with, ask them to play you some music. Be sure to go upstairs to see the western room and the woman room.

  • Amazing experience. It was like stepping back into the 1800s. Fantastic history! Loved that we could explore the houses, go on an egg hunt for our 9year old to find certain items. Was such an amazing experience and would love to see again and again!!!
  • Just visited today. They were short-handed and just waved me in for free today! Very nice docent told me all kinds of stories about the local area. Well worth a visit. This museum is well worth a visit.
  • This has to be the most complete oregon trail museum! this place has an unreal amout of information from what school work was like to interaction and treaties with natives, tons of native artifacts, a decent collection of older cars and wagons! Also take a step back in time and walk thru the Anderson homestead! what a destination if you love history make sure to swing by and pay 8 bucks to take a walk back in time
  • Nice museum for history buffs who like Lewis and Clark history. Nice display of very old early transportation items.
  • Very interesting to see those parts of history and how different the times were. Very special little place. The people were so friendly too. :)
