About
This historic property, perched atop a scenic hill, offers a peaceful overnight retreat with ample, well-marked parking suitable for RVs and large rigs. The expansive grassy grounds provide plenty of room to maneuver, and guests consistently praise the serene atmosphere—an ideal spot to rest and recharge during road trips. Convenient access to nearby amenities at the base of the hill adds to the location's appeal as a strategic stopping point.
The museum itself is a remarkable collection spanning Wyoming and western history, housed in a beautifully preserved cavalry stable built during the Great Depression and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Visitors discover everything from dinosaur fossils and Native American artifacts to geology samples, period furnishings (including a doctor's office and chuck wagon), and memorabilia from local historic sites. The thoughtfully curated displays include interactive elements like drawers to open and hands-on items, bringing the region's 1800s heritage to life in engaging ways.
The on-site gift shop features locally made items including handcrafted jewelry, watercolor prints, photographs, and artwork from regional artisans, alongside books, coffee cups, magnets, t-shirts, and other keepsakes. Guests also enjoy exploring the surrounding grounds, where additional historic buildings and informational plaques provide further context about the area's rich past. The property welcomes exploration at any time, with no set hours, making it flexible for early arrivals or departures.
