    Walking through the exhibits gave me a very good-quiet and vintage-giving vibe, with all the photos of the past, bits & pieces of architecture and technology, old-fashion clothing, and a couple of vehicles left and right; despite the renovations that were there at the time of my visit, I certainly recommend giving this place a checkout!

    Lots of great exhibits, I definitely recommend checking this place out if you have some time and any interest in rural MN history.

    My children and I very much enjoyed this museum. The scavenger hunt for my 10 and 11 year old children was a hit and I think other children in the same age range are at an age where they could appreciate the museum. The staff was kind and knowledgeable. It had different offerings than some other local history museums as well, such as a model a Ford and a unique tractor from Massachusetts (I think that was where the tractor was from anyway). I appreciated the American Indian pieces as well. Would recommend to others.

    A great local museum! Some of the language in certain exhibits is a little outdated, but the content is very interesting and educational. Lots of different things to look at and rooms to explore, and the dugout canoe was absolutely incredible!

Like.. you work here and you are the front desk, surely they've told you something. Also the pool is ver...
