Definitely worth the drive from the I-80. Only tribe owned museum in the state. Kind staff and informative. After visiting the museum head on north towards the lake and then go west/southwest bound towards Reno. Beautiful scenery besides the lake and in the mountains.

It’s one of the best museums that I visited in a while. Let me know more about Native American 🇺🇸 culture & more about the area. I appreciate the staff, and it’s a free admission

If you're heading to Pyramid Lake, then you need to stop here first and get a sense of the different Native American people who call this area and Lake Tahoe home. The museum is charming and quite informative.

Incredible Museum and staff! The woman at the front desk was kind and helpful and so was the museum director The museum was even free of charge. I loved and learned the most from the timeline section. It started from thousands of years ago, describing ancient lake lahontan and the traditional way of life, through contact with white settlers, the gold rush, the comstock lode, the pyramid lake war, derby damn, and more, until the present. Highly recommend to anyone interested in learning about and appreciating Native history and culture.

Keepers of true history are important, learning myths and legends that led people to survive in the area. Find out some of the local nature and survival skills that took generations of adaptation. Ask a question.

Here we bought the entrance fee to Pyramid Lake. The lake is lonely and has a great backdrop. It is beautiful for swimming. During the week you can enjoy the beach to yourself.

Off the beaten path, cool museum with a cute gift shop. We always make sure to stop here each year we come to Black Rock City. Everyone who works here is so sweet and helpful.

Who doesn’t like a free museum??? I was in the area for work and finished up early. Dropped-in on my way back to the hotel. The staff was very helpful with all my questions. They have plenty of photos, documents and artifacts from the local Paiute culture that inhabit the area plus some geological info. I picked a few books in the gift shop. Will stop by again next time I'm in the area.

This museum is one of the best Indian museums I have been in. Inside and out were well designed and beautiful.

I really liked the history of the tribe, the place and the person who serve it were very nice.
