Self Guided Tours

The brochure available at the information kiosk will serve as a tour guide. It will enable visitors to tour the museum on their own.  Because our site extends for almost a mile, we suggest that those visiting plan to allow enough time for a leisurely stroll into history.

Feel free to photograph anything anywhere. We would love to see your photos!  Please share them with us on our Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/settlersmuseum

Simple Rules

  1. Artifacts: Treat everything on our site as if it were given to you by your favorite grandmother. It's all precious.
  2. Smoking: Don't smoke beyond the parking lot. Our worst fear is the senseless burning of our irreplaceable heritage.
  3. Food: Don't carry food or drinks beyond the parking area. Use our pretty picnic shelter.
  4. Trash: Put your trash in the cans. Our people are all volunteers not trash men.
  5. Pets:   ​Please keep your pets under your control at all times
  6. Safety: And be careful. We want you to enjoy your visit safely.
