1 list

We did a 7:30 am ride and it was amazing! They ensure everyone is comfortable and let you ride posse style on the trail so you can have a little independence. Our guides, Baylee and Alison, were awesome! They give you so much information and made the morning very enjoyable. On the ride, you take a trail around to the rim of the Palo Duro Canyon which was just beautiful. Our horses Boon and Tono were characters and well trained. We had a blast and would highly recommend for anyone beginner to avid rider.

Great experience! The riding about 2 hours, we made safety back to the Ranch before the strong windy become very bad, Madison, Phylis and Casey very friendly and nice! The horse very docile and patient, I love this place, will be back again!

Our family just enjoyed a trail ride with our kids (6 & 8) for their first time. Melissa, Alison, and Bailey did such a wonderful job making everyone comfortable, building their confidence on the horse. We will definitely be back! Beautiful and peaceful scenery! Plus the kids felt so proud of themselves after they finished! Kids said it was their favorite part of the trip!

We chose cowgirls and cowboys in the west because they could host our young children on the horse ride. Rebecca and Blair were expert riders, gracious and helpful as we rode together on the beautiful horses. They were patient and kind with our children, even though none of us had ever ridden horses before, they made us feel comfortable and confident! Would definitely go again!!

We really enjoyed our sunset ride! Brayden and Madison were super kind and informative guides. Nothing was a rush.Starting off in a nose/tail lineup gives each rider a chance to get comfortable (we were newbies). The horses are gentle. WHISKEY was such a beautiful horse!

A wonderful experience for the whole family! Kids aged 5,9, and 11 all had a great time. Melissa and Madison were our guides, very friendly and knowledgeable. If you're going through Texas, you ought to ride horses, and I'd you're going to ride horses, definitely do it here!

Such a great ride led by Bailey, Kaycee and Sabine!! Great communication and instruction for both new and intermediate riders. Horses were all great and easy to manage. Beautiful views and wildlife throughout the trail.

We really enjoyed our first time riding, Sabine, Melissa and kaycee were fantastic coaches, very knowledgeable and a credit to the ranch. We’re glad we came to the 730am ride, perfect weather and conditions. Thoroughly recommend and well worth the price.

My wife and I decided to take our 5-year-old horseback riding - the choice was simple and quick: Cowgirls and Cowboys in the West! Phyllis and her crew are the best hosts ever. From the moment you arrive they take great care of you until the final goodbyes are said (for that day because we'll be back!) The rides are relaxing and pleasant with gorgeous views of the canyon. A brief stop for a nice photo session during the ride and then it's back to the start point. I can't think of a better way to spend a day than with these fine folks! This was not our first visit and we're already looking forward to our next - it's just that great!

Worth every penny! Exceptionally well maintained property and horses. We had every riding experience level in the group we went with and everyone enjoyed themselves. Kaycee, Melissa and Sabine were very knowledgeable, patient and fun as could be! Melissa caught a horned toad for everyone to see and pet. Kaycee was super patient and calm with the less experienced and younger riders and Sabine was a great leader and explained the directions and why we do things clearly and easy to understand. All exceptional young ladies ❤ I was a little self conscious as I haven't rode in awhile and it didn't take long around them for that to completely pass. Big thanks to Scout for hauling my big booty around the trail, he's a champ! Shout out to Roy, Chance and Hero too!

Alison and Melissa were amazing guides! They made sure we all knew what we needed to do to feel my comfortable on our horses. They knew each horse’s personality which was awesome. They also knew a lot about the history of the area, as well as the flora and fauna. A good time was had by all! ❤️

Cowgirls and Cowboys of West Texas gave us just what we were looking for: beautiful sites, knowledge Cowgirls who knew the history, the land, the horses' personalities (to make the perfect match with it's human-but they were down right silly during picture time!!🤣) and safety for everyone. Best $ value and 2 hr we've had in a while!! Thank you, Kaycee, Bailey, and Sabine. You were all exceptional! Good luck with your education, future careers, and everyday...Go do good work ladies!!

Myself and my husband booked the 2 hour horseback riding experience for whilst we were in Amarillo (Driving Route 66 for our honeymoon). Kaycee and Alison were amazing, the horses were great for inexperienced riders like us, we felt safe, and learnt so much about the local area. Honestly the best experiencing of our whole trip - keep doing what you are doing!

Amazing horseback riding experience! Our guides, Baylee and Kaycee, were fabulous. The group had varied riding experience/horse familiarity and they gave us a great tutorial and made sure we all felt comfortable throughout the ride. The views were incredible, the ride (3 hrs) was the perfect length, and everything ran smoothly.

Such an awesome tour! Baylee and Alison were great and we thank them for their enthusiasm and knowledge of the land. Great history lesson bout the canyon. We are rookies and this was our first time on horses and had a great time! Thanks again.

When returning to my hometown after 35 years, a trip to the canyon was a must. My husband found Los Cedros and Cowgirls and Cowboys of the West online. We arranged a morning ride and WOW what an incredible time we had. We were met at the check in with smiles and very informative Cowgirls Melissa, Rebecca, Baylee, and Blair. Based on our riding experience they paired us with two horses that matched us perfectly. I wanted one they called a sweetie pie so I they gave me Rio, my husband askedfor one with an attitude like his so he was given Roy. Lol Both horses treated us very well and had great personalities. We rode through the beautiful ranch for two hours and I was never uncomfortable or worried not having not been on a horse in many years. We chatted with the ladies about the history of Palo Duro Canyon and then just life in general. These ladies were smart, knowledgeable and extremely professional in their jobs. And personally, I love an all girl organization! Go Phyllis! AllIn all it was a beautiful ride and we will definitely be back next year! I highly recommend your business. Thank you for helping make great memories. Heather and Paul R. Ohio

What a fun adventure this was. Highly recommend it. Guides were super! Very knowledgeable and experience. Horses were so friendly and easy to ride. Beautiful scenery. Alison gave a great history of the canyon and events that occurred here with Comanche Indians. Our guides, Alison, Sam and Dylan were AWESOME! We felt safe and had a blast.

Great family experience! It was our first time horseback riding and the staff really made it super easy and fun for our family. Our boys (ages 7, 10, and 12) had the best time! Bailey, Kaycee and Sabine are an amazing team! They were hands down the reason we had such a great experience. All of the horses were very sweet and well behaved as well. Heads up if you get Tono as your horse! He will try to establish his dominance at first but once he gets used to you, he’s a sweetheart! Will definitely be coming back for another outing!

Truly enjoyed this experience! I have ridden before, an experience similar to this one, and I think this was my favorite so far! The horses were gorgeous, well taken care of, and the staff was incredible! What made this even more special was I got engaged on this trip! My now fiancé rode for the first time, and she ADORED the whole experience. Highly highly recommend!

Allison and Blair are very knowledgeable, capable of making anyone feel comfortable on a horse, and they both have special bonds with each horse, which is exactly what you want to see on a horseback trail guide. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL OF AMARILLO 🐎

My wife and I drove from Dallas/Ft. Worth just to ride here yesterday, (4/12), for my wife's birthday. It was fantastic! Melissa and Dylan our guides where awesome! I rode Whiskey and my wife rode Scout and both horses did really well. This isn't just a nose to tail ride around in circles its an experience and the canyon was amazing. We'll be back again in the fall thanks for the great day Cowgirls and Cowboys in the West see ya soon!

Kaycee, Brooke and Alison were amazing guides for our 2-hour trail ride. The views were lovely and the trail was very fun. Even being an experienced rider it was a lot of fun. Tono, my horse for the ride was such a good boy and an awesome trail horse. 10/10 would trail here again!

Love riding with Cowgirls & Cowboys in the West! Their staff is amazing and always makes sure their riders and horses are well taken care of. This ride is so much better than the normal nose to tail rides. I highly recommend riding with them if your a local or visitor.

We had a wonderful experience! I host exchange students and wanted to give them an amazing Texas-style experience.The guide were great, the horses were very well mannered.The day cooperated well and the view from the overlook was beautiful.

I had so much fun on the sunset trail ride, one of my favorites so far. Definitely recommend taking a ride here whenever you visit Amarillo! Kaycee and Bailey were very good guides and very knowledgeable about the history of Palo Duro Canyon and there horses are very well trained.

My family and I went on a trail ride with Alison, Sam, and Dylan. All of the employees were knowledgeable and very friendly, they made it such a fun experience! The horses were well trained and I felt comfortable and safe. The views were beautiful and our guides made sure to get amazing pictures of our group! Definitely would recommend this activity as a unique way to see the views of the Texas Panhandle

Such an amazing experience! So much fun, we were able to ride along the trail, not in a single file line the whole way, having freedom was lovely. Learned very interesting history about the Palo Duro Canyon. Absolutely enjoyed the whole ride. Highly recommended. The wranglers were sweet as can be and welcoming. Alison and Baylee! Thank you for such a great experience.

Kaycee & Blair were fantastic. We provably had about 10-12 riders in our group. They really made sure everyone was comfortable throughout the ride. They adjusted anything riders needed. It was a great time, awesome ride many thanks to Kaycee & Blair.

34th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY TRIP TO AMARILLO ❤️APACHE & RIO WERE GREAT HORSES -- MELISSA & BAILEY WERE AWESOME TOO! 😁HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ACTIVITY! 🐴 🤠Phyllis was great to work with on getting our ride scheduled and rescheduled when the weather forecast changed. We rode in 63 degree weather with sunshine in January and it was perfect. Melissa & Bailey did an awesome job guiding us on our ride and were very informative about the property and the history. They felt like friends/family pretty quickly. We appreciate them so much! We were in Amarillo to celebrate our 34th wedding anniversary ️ and they even remembered that detail. Our horses, Rio and Apache, were such good boys and knew exactly how to do their jobs and kept us comfortable and safe . If you’re considering doing a horseback ride in the area, by all means book with Cowgirls and Cowboys in the West ! 100% recommend them!

19100 Farm To Market Rd 1258, Amarillo, TX 79118, USA

Wonderful place to stop. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. The history is very interesting and the house is gorgeous. Loved learning about a piece of Texas history I didn't know.

This was an excellent stop. I really enjoyed the tour and the stories about the family. The guide was so helpful. The house was beautiful.

We stopped here for about 90 minutes to break up a drive from DFW to the Oklahoma panhandle. Everyone in my family (2 adults and 2 boys (8 and 12)) loved the tour and history. Such a great part of TX and western history and everything is so well preserved and recreated. I would highly recommend.

Great pit stop. The main building only has 5-10 minutes of free exhibits. The tour of the house costs a few bucks but is worth it. My kids favorite part was seeing the buffalo up close

What a beautifully restored home. Loved hearing the story and details on the Goodnights and the museum is very interesting. It's a story of that's not just of Texas but affected the nation. Would recommend for all ages.

History comes alive! Highly recommend the 45 minute tour ($4) of the house.

Finally got to stop by and check out this beautiful home and historic site. Wonderful history of the Palo Duro Canyon area and bison preservation of the Goodnight family

I love this place and the story behind the ranch! The entire staff were so friendly and accommodating. The young lady that checked us in was so sweet. It is kept neat and orderly. Wonderfull gallery filled with information on the Goodnights. We took the tour of their home and the guide was also delightful. The home is beautiful with nicely groomed grounds. If you love history this place is for you. Thanks to all!

The good night ranch is a must see for those who enjoy cowboy history. It is also an important bit of history as these ranchers did much to preserve the bison in the United States.

3 stars is because I wasn't able to take the tour as they were cancelled because of heating issues. There was no social media post of the issue, which I rely on to provide information. Also, multiple restroom stalls were out of order. Otherwise, this place is immaculate and you will definitely learn something you didn't know. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. There are 3 bison adjacent to the property that are descendants of the original Goodnight herd.

Our July 2024 visit was great! We attended their first camp and they really did a great job! Children and adults alike will enjoy the information presented and the activities that are included. The staff are very friendly and quite knowledgeable. Their enthusiasm added so much! My highest reccommendations!

What a fabulous tour! The house is beautifully restored to 1887 and our guide was not only very informative, you could tell how much she enjoyed what she did.

Absolutely loved this place , the staff were so knowledgeable. If you love Texas and Texas history this is a great place to visit. If you loved the movie Lonesome Dove Charles Goodnight is Capt Call. You can learn a lot at this museum. highly recommend

Amazing. The tour by Evan was absolutely fascinating. His depth of knowledge was astounding. A great look at the past.No charge for visitor center or to look at grounds. Guided tour of the ranch house was only four dollars. Highly recommend.

Stopped in last minute on our way to Amarillo. Carly was working and was very kind, informative and not annoyed that we were there last minute 😊 Grounds were super clean and kept. Nice historical piece of the U.S. especially for those Lonesome Dove fans like us ❤️Again thank you Carly!

What a treat to have been going home from vacation and choose this route! When we saw the sign Goodnight we knew we had to stop. We so enjoyed visiting to the lovely employees and your guides. The short films were very informative and the tour of the grounds and house was amazing. Our guide knew her history! The house is amazing along with it's furnishings. We considered this our lucky day to have stumbled upon this piece of history. We encourage everyone to take the time to visit here. You will totally enjoy this walk back in time.

If you remember the book or miniseries, The Lonesome Dove, you will love the Charles Goodnight house tour. We had a very knowledgeable guide, Evan, a historian who really took us through the history of the house. This is very finely restored. Also, there is a museum which further tells Good night's story particularly how his efforts saved the southern buffalo from extinction.

My husband and I had a wonderful visit to this historic site, operated by the Texas Historical Commission. For a minimal entrance fee, we had a whole hour tour of the house and grounds, and it was well worth the drive to this destination. (Be sure to check the website for tour times so you can coordinate them with your arrival time.) Our tour guide, Madeline, was a wealth of knowledge and delightful to interact with. After the tour, we learned from the friendly front desk staffer that the gravesite of Charles and Mary Ann Goodnight was only about two miles from the house, and she even drew a map for us. The ranch house has a gift shop, where we picked up some books on Charles Goodnight, note cards, and a beautiful hand-carved buffalo. If you love Texas history, go visit this site!

4989 Co Rd 25, Claude, TX 79019, USA

AMAZING!!!! Seen the huge cross from the side of the highway and decided to turn around. So glad we did.It is breathtaking. The cross was huge, an extract replica if the tomb Jesus was buried in, amazing metal statues of the stations of the cross, a gorgeous fountain and a cute gift shop with plenty of items to look at.I 100% recommend you all to stop and take a look. The woman in the gift shop was so nice to us and made lovely conversation.

This awesome monument is worth the sidetrip.Though prayerful consideration of each feature is difficult in hot Texas sun, an Easter visit might be more advantageous to contemplation.

This is a great stop and definitely worth it if you’re on the way. I will say we did have a hard time finding a way to get in but that was probably just us. Also they have bathrooms and a gift shop which might be the prettiest one I’ve ever seen from a religious monument/temple.This is also a wonderful place to walk around quietly and pray. Also you can snap pictures but always be respectful. No standing or messing with the statues!

I found this place on Tik Tok and had to visit. Definitely worth the drive, and time spent there. It was moving to say the least. Beautiful, breathtaking and you can feel the love and pain for ultimate sacrifice for us sinners. If you're in the area, you have to stop and see it for yourself.

Wow!!! No need to leave the United States... Jerusalem is right here in Texas. better to stay safe in the US! Stations of the Cross statues are life size. Jesus tomb is life size and the blessed waterfall will keep you speechless. Excellent tour stop for all Christians, yet you don't have to be a Catholic to enjoy this beautiful, peaceful, breathtaking location. Best to come in the day time. Unforgettable site. Must come see it at least once in your lifetime.

Good people. Providing a peace-filled reminder to a stressed world that Jesus loves you. You are here for a purpose. The Groom Cross, stations of the cross, and your campus and gift shop are beautiful.

I'm not Catholic but I still appreciate that they spent the time and money on recreating the step by step Prophetic event of our LORD and Saviors sacrifice, as He made His way to the cross.Very difficult to read each stations plaque , as it describes what is taking place.I definitely got choked up trying to hold back my tears. How humbling , and thankful it was.I also had the best conversation with one of the gift shop employees. He was very patient and took the time to explain His religion as well as being willing to let me respond with questions and answers according to my Christian beliefs.💯 Satisfied with the experience.Also the actual size of the cross is very impressive! It's a " must stop" along your travels.

Very spiritual place. Reminds you of what Jesus went thru for our sins. The statues are very detailed. A must stop to visit.

What a beautiful tribute to the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise God for our redemption through His work on the cross. Touching tribute to all those who lost their lives through abortion. The Lord knows and loves each one. Wonderful place to see!

If you want to be captivated by beautiful biblical artwork and sculptures I recommend going here. This area personally for me is very relaxing and really makes me wanna delve deeper into God's wonderful mysteries. This is the very place my husband knew he had to marry me. He told me he felt that God was speaking to him when we visited for the first time with my family. Truly an astonishing visit.

This is a place where you feel very humbled, the center is a huge cross and circling the huge cross are bronze life-size statues of Jesus Christ and different scenes that were from the Bible scriptures approximately 12 to 14 different stations around the cross and it is so lifelike. It also has the tomb and the holy sepulchre and a huge gift shop. It cost nothing but it will take a piece of your heart as you see it unfold before your eyes the crucifixion of our Savior Jesus Christ. A Must Visit !!!

A huge cross that can be seen 5 miles away. Very impressive. Nice gift shop. A short movie about the construction. There is a prayer room available. Well worth the extra time it added to our travels. This christian woman was so moved by the stations of the cross, so realistic, it brought me to tears.

Oh my! What can I say, but that I'm so glad we stopped by!! Beautiful almost or close to life-sized statues of our dear Lord's last days, brought to life in "The Stations of the Cross." Please take a quick exit into the town of Groom, Texas, and take a look for yourself. There's even a generous sized gift shop with beautiful gifts for purchase.

Cool is just a start, though on the day I want in was over 100 degrees , love texas.The cross is the center piece, dominating everything for miles. You see long before you get there.Besides the cross there are statues of 1) stations of the cross (some stations didn't have statuary) , 2) last super (missing a few apostles) , 3) calvery, 4) tomb (dim - emotional)There were also stand alone statues of St Michael & Mary.There was a groto with a water fall with meeting rooms & gift shop surrounding.The gift shop was very air-conditioned and a blessing I the heat.

Be still my heart and thank you for this amazing sight celebrating the life, death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The stations of the cross are done beautifully as is the last supper. Take time to study the the facial expression for each disciple. I so appreciated how the artist captured the facial expression and body position of each man. What really caught my heart is the memorial of Jesus on His knees holding a pre born baby. The sadness and gentleness depicted in His face broke my heart. I am move by this remembrance for all the unborn babies never given the opportunity to live out their life due to abortion. The gift store is full of wonderful items.

It is a very moving display. All the individual sculptures depicting different parts of the journey to his crucifixion are incredibly detailed, and really emotionally charged. The replica of the Shroud of Turin was really something as well. It was well worth the stop on our way through Groom. I would strongly suggest anyone with a theological or religious side to visit if given the chance.

Nice place to take a break while driving the I40 corridor in Texas. Vary peaceful. A great place to reflect on the Life of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ. Be sure to take a stroll into the visitor center and say “HI” to Jason.

I think there are a few misses for me here. The first is that this stop focuses on the crucifixion and death of Christ with just a note about the resurrection. The resurrection is the most important part! And at this stop, it's an empty tomb with no description, off to the side, hidden by everything else.The second is the cross is pretty garish. What's the point? No one is converting based on seeing the USs second biggest cross. I just don't see any reason to have this here considering it clashes with the aesthetics of everything else.Finally, and definitely not an afterthought, this cherry picks scriptures that ostracize different groups of people and monumentizes them. It's goes against the first and second great commandment and just drives people away. Sad to see on statues that last forever when so many other things could have been here where the primary focus is the Savior.

Beautiful experience to stop and see, read each scripture leading up to the crucifixion and what Christ did for us, how he suffered out of love for each and every one of us. His love is for all. John 3:16

I really enjoyed visiting this place. So much . Loved reading all the things. Loved looking at all the Statues. Was so neat and moving to go into the cave with the stone that tolled away. Prices was high on most of the things to buy though. Loved, Loved the fountain.

Praise the Lord Jesus Christ for he is risen, this place is amazing and well kept, you can just feel the presence of the Holy Spirit and the fire within, come everyone and enjoy the journey

Wow, what an amazing spot! When you walk onto the grounds, you can feel that prayer upon prayer has gone up. It's sort of weird to me to build this masterpiece in the middle of nowhere, but I do think there is something quite amazing happening. I can only imagine all the drivers that are randomly blessed by a stop. This is an amazing meditation point where you can walk through life size statues of the passion, go to the cross, even sit at the last supper. There is also a lovely fountain to sit at and pray. If you are ever cruising down the 40, make time for at least a 30 minute stop, longer if you can!

Technically, the cross here in Groom isn't the largest but I'm not going to point that out to anyone. There's a cross in Effingham Illinois that is a midge taller. But the land here is flatter and you'll be seeing this cross from nearly 20 miles away as you're heading between Amarillo and Oklahoma City.It is located just off I-40 with an easy exit. There is a large gravel parking lot with plenty of room for larger vehicles.At the base of the cross are life-sized statues that depict the 14 Stations of the Cross. There is also a small amphitheater. It's an ideal stop if you're a Christian or Christian-curious.

If you're traveling east or west on the I-40 through the Texas panhandle, this is worth your time to stop and spend some time.

A must stop. You should never be too much in a rush not to take the time to visit and reflect. Beautiful rest area

Worth seeing with the family. Didn't agree with everything on site (theologically) but it was a good outing while visiting Amarillo.

Great place to stop on your road trip. I loved learning more about the Savior and the beautiful feeling you get as you walk around. The gift shop was super cute too.

This place was awesome well put together and put together what really happened. A must visit

I-40, Exit 112, Groom, TX 79039, USA

This is an interesting quick stop. Lots of barbed wire art which is super interesting. The dust bowl photos were interesting and the route 66 room was super fun.

Very impressive little museum. There was much more there than we expected. It's definitely worth stopping to visit. No cost to visit, but you can (and should) make a donation.

This was a very in-depth museum with a lot of history. Wish we had more time to spend here. Definitely worth a stop.

If you're traveling down the route and unsure how to budget time this museum is easily worth 2 hours. We didn't put enough time aside to see it all but great museum.

I sure did learn a lot about barbed wire.

Believe it or not, this was our second barbed wire museum, having once visited one in Kansas. Unfortunately, we just missed getting here on time and the museum was closed. Still worth a stop, though, as it’s a very cool building and part of Route 66.

Nice museum if you’re interested in barbed wire and how it tamed the west. Lots and lots of different types of wire and the tools it took to string it. Very friendly lady at the front desk.

Very interesting little museum. Has clean bathrooms, great exhibits and photos. Friendly staff.

Kids spend some time here to find all the items on a list and got a souvenir as rewards. Pretty fun! Got our Taxes Route 66 passport here ( Vinyl record style) and collected the 1st Route 66 coin. Great place to learn all kinds of wire fences, tools and technologies! That’s why it is called devil’s rope by the Indians.

What a cool place. We happened on it 30 minutes before closing. Coolest displays and historical photos of the nearby towns. Route 66 artifacts. Even had vintage collections for sale and handmade Western decor made from rope and barbed wire (devil's rope). So cool and an awesome gift store to boot! Must see. Loved it. Also bought some Route 66 sodas.

An interesting but small museum documenting the design and use of barbed wire across the years. Free entry and there is a nice little gift shop attached.

neat place lot of history. who knew they are so many types of barb wire. nice people.

Devil's rope is barbed wire. A really fascinating museum. Well worth your trip you'll enjoy it. There is so much more than barbed wire.

Wow McLean Texas was amazing this whole town was worth a visit we spent the night at the cactus inn, ate at the steakhouse next door and went to both museums in t town and enjoyed just walking around here

This is a wonderful museum and was the highlight of my short time in Texas. There are many exhibits of barbed wire, including a few interesting sculptures. The Dust Bowl and Route 66 exhibits were also fun and informative.

I would never have known there was enough history about Barbed Wire to make a museum for it. It also has a Route 66 historical section and a section about the 1900s dust bowl. This place was fascinating and the attendant was super friendly and helpful.

Museum was great. Lots of antiques and interesting information. However, the employee working the front at the times was incredibly rude and dismissive. We entered near closing, so I understand being impatient to go home as an employee, but I’ve never felt more unwanted at an attraction before

The cafe is open but has limited lunch only hours. The food was very good and the service was wonderful. Remember that your visiting a small rural town, a little patience and kindness will get you everywhere.The Museum and gift shop is a nice walk threw with lots of local information. The site itself is worth stopping for. Thank goodness the town of Shamrock had the vision to preserve this piece of Route 66.The public bathrooms are clean and well stocked even in the middle of the night. The overall look and feel of this piece of history is amazing day or especially at night. If your looking for big city polish and fake shine this may not be your favorite stop but if you are looking for authenticity and small town heart then this will be your favorite stop too!

Stopped here to charge and was pleasantly surprised by how cool this location is! This is a historical route 66 gas station. There is a cute gift shop and diner. The ladies in the gift shop are very friendly, and the diner has yummy ice cream, pie, coffee, and sandwiches. If the front of the building looks familiar, it was the inspiration for the Cars gas station! I definitely recommend stopping here. It's a quick and easy detour off the 40! Check the hours first though!

Food was good, but the best part is seeing Americana. The authentic Diner, gas pumps....what an amazing gem on rt 66. Service was good too, and the people are so nice, in the diner as well as the gift shop...again, a must see destination!

What a cute little place to stop! We got lots of pictures. They have a gift shop with souvenirs in it. They also have a bathroom. The ladies there were so sweet and kind to my littlest daughter and they were great to talk to...we could've spent the whole afternoon visiting with them!!! Highly recommend visiting!

Wonderful Route 66 stop full of history. It’s got a Tesla supercharger which is why we stopped. But a fun stop for kids and adults, the gift shop has got some neat little things and the nicest people work there. Only gripe is the outside bathroom could really use some updating. It’s in pretty rough condition.

This is one of if not my favorite gas station of route 66, this was featured in the cars movie and is a hot spot for enthusiasts and travelers of the mother road. It was stunning to see in person, the staff are very friendly and the famous sandwich was amazing. The milkshakes are hand made and delicious probably top 3 of what i have had so far. Overall i highly recommend stopping here for a quick lunch, drink and gifts, they have lots of nice things to get for everyone traveling route 66.

Must take time in your trip to stop by and have lunch or homemade pie at Ozzie's cafe there at the U drop inn. My daughter and I shared a shake sitting at the counter. The museum and shop next door is also a must see, as the ladies there made a memorable visit for us. This is the quintessential Route 66 experience.

Great restoration of this iconic gas station. The visitors center is stocked with Route 66 apparel and souvenirs as well as some vintage items, old photographs, painting of the station and other interesting items. Staff is friendly and there is one small bathroom inside and a 24 hour bathroom in the front of the building. Bathrooms are vintage also. Great place to take photos of the vintage gas station and the Cafe.

We found this adorable & historic town by accident traveling West . We stayed at a cute hotel down the street , history and nostalgia in this area . Worth your time to stop , or call it a day and have dinner at a delicious place close by and stay in one of the several motels . Little step back in time. I loved it!

It's an iconic place, if you know you know. Not that far away, is a really nice piece of art with the city/hometown name. One of the benefits of road Trip across the country from LA, couldn't stop to explore more due to lots of driving & arriving early but one for the books.

No tickets needed. This place is free to visit and off the main highway but a must see!! It’s never been busy when I’ve been here. The I-Drop Inn Cafe was closed on a Saturday which was disappointing but maybe I will get through there another time to enjoy the cafe fare! Make sure if you get through Shamrock, TX you stop by this place!!

The cafe was closed when we got there so I can't comment on that. The visitor center, gift shop, museum has many items and the person working that was very friendly and informative.

This was in Shamrock! Old route 66 iconic gas station. Unfortunately it was closed when we arrived. It's a tourist center and the inside looked just as old on the inside. The rest of the town was surprisingly better than some of the other towns along the old route 66. We contemplated staying in Shamrock but I had one more destination in mind so we kept going along. The ironic part to this location is Tesla has a charging station in the back! It's not a 4 way stop at the intersection but the traffic wasn't heavy when we arrived.

Very cool to go back in the days & see history. Saw a picture from the 1912, a women used a hand-cranked battery to charge her electric car. How far we have to Electric Cars - Tesla, Rivian, etc…

Excellent restored gas station combined with a maintained historic diner (with some good food and drink on offer) and a mini-museum and gift shop. Well worth a stop while also looking at some of the many murals in Shamrock.

Great little stop at night only downfalls is not really open. If you or your kids love the movie cars definitely stop to see this part of Americana.

Loved this place! We are road tripping to Bring the South Paulding High School equipment in for the Hollywood Christmas Parade that SPHS will be Marching in.I took advantage of the photo opportunity while I was there.

Cool place to visit along Route 66. There’s a small cafe and gift shop, along with bathrooms. The people there were nice too.

What a gorgeous piece of Route 66 history. The ladies at the gift shop were so helpful and nice. We loved getting old-fashioned milkshakes at the attached care as well. This place was the highlight of our day on Route 66!

What a hidden gem! This charming establishment, lovingly restored by the city, feels like stepping into a scene from the Disney movie CARS. Inspired by the iconic Route 66, with its classic hotels, gas stations, and roadside attractions, this place has been transformed into a captivating museum.We dined here, though the menu is modest, focusing on sandwiches, shakes, and ice cream – think of it more as a cozy café than a full-service restaurant. But the real highlight is the stunning architecture by J.C. Berry, meticulously preserved for visitors to admire.It's a delightful experience to show your kids how Disney captured the essence of American culture, echoing the nostalgic charm of Route 66. Today's Route 66 historic landmarks offer a fascinating glimpse into the past, thanks to the efforts of entrepreneurs and historical societies. It's a beautiful connection to our uniquely American heritage through the joy of travel.

They were closed when we got there a little before 5. Disappointed. Would have loved to go inside. The need to up their hours to 6:30

Beautiful, well taken care of, wonderfully happy and inviting staff, and really great food and coffee as well.We loved this stop.

Interesting historical spot right next to Tesla Supercharger; wasn’t open but there was plenty to see and photograph.

Cool photo opportunity, excellent place to charge your Tesla if so inclined. However the gift shop and Cafe never seem to be open regardless of when I stopped there.

If you're driving Route 66 or just passing by, this is a must stop. Beautifully restored 1930's gas station (no gas anymore ) and cafe. The cafe (open 9-2) has a great panini menu and handmade shakes. Nice gift shop with lots of Route 66 souvenirs. Take a few minutes to talk to the folks working there!

Fantastic piece of nostalgia for Route 66 explorers. Unfortunately, the Cafe and visitors center were closed, but the grounds are well kept. The gas station itself was used in the Disney movie "Cars".

What a gem this is! So much effort has been put into restoring it, and the man running the Cafe has been continually improving the interior and exterior and expanding the hours and menu since reopening it several years ago.The gift and tourism shop in the old gas station part of the building is very nice.We found this because those in charge were wise enough to accept the installation of a Tesla Supercharger array that is part of Tesla's nationwide network that allows electric vehicles to travel x-country.We have stopped here twice a year for the last three years, and we would stop even if we were not driving an EV.

A stunning iconic service station of a bygone era. Nicely preserved, maintained and clean. We pulled right up to the pumps for some memorable photos, had the whole place to ourselves. The small souvenir shop was closed but it didn't matter. I'm sure the locals take it for granted, but a don't-miss stop for old cars guys and Rt 66 fans.

Conoco Tower Station And U Drop InnRoute 66 Shamrock, TexasWhen we first arrived in Shamrock, Texas, we knew we wanted to visit The Conoco Tower Station and the U-Drop Inn Café. We met both Olita and Hazel at the station, and we talked about the history of the station. They also were kind enough to show us the U Drop Inn Café even though it was closed for the day. The interior and decor were beautiful and made you feel as if you were stepping back in the past. We also met the owner of the U Drop Inn Cafe. His name is Ozzy. We spoke for a bit about the cafe, its history, and his menu items. He was great and always had a smile on his face. We also talked about how we would like to promote his business to our Route 66 groups. We told him that we would be back the next day to have lunch before leaving Shamrock for Oklahoma.The following day, we had lunch at the cafe. The menu is limited and offers different sandwiches, paninis, salads, shakes, and homemade pies. We ordered several items from the menu. I had the Green Chile Chicken Panini, which came with a side of fries. The Panini was delicious and had lots of flavor. Chuck had Voilas Classic Chicken Salad Sandwich, and he stated that it was one of the best he has had. We also both ordered a couple of milk shakes, and they were both great they were flavorful, creamy, and smooth. Of course, we wanted to try some homemade pie. I can't remember what kind of pie it was, but I know the crust was flaky, and the filling was delicious. We later found out from Ozzy that his mother made the pies. I'm sure she makes other delicious pies because what we had was great. We also found out that Ozzy's parents own another restaurant, which we will try on our next visit.Overall, we had a great experience with wonderful food and excellent customer service from Ozzy.

I popped in along my tour of Route 66. I didn't eat in the Cafe but checked out the museum. The woman working there was so sweet. I didn't know until after that this place was in Cars. So cool!

Nice park to visit and camp at for a quick weekend. The camp ground was ok... Bathroom had some questionable design . I e sliding lock on the outside, no lock for stall, or separate changing area from rest. Restroom were fairly clean though and park ranger drives around fairly often

We love it out there. Beautiful scenery. Great hikes, and relaxing spots on the many beaches. Running water and Flushing toilets at some sites, portable out houses at others. Showers are by the campsite near the boat launch. Garbage cans are throughout.Parking is $8 for the daytime. Scan and follow link on posted signs.

We decided to try one of these out. The food itself was really good! The appetizer was fried pickles. Wasn’t impressed with those, they’re cut way to thin & were so over salted! We had great service & a sweet lady server.To bad they closed them all already. I hope they get to reopen. Get all this settled & if they’re lucky the governor will admit his fault in the whole deal!The sweet corn was amazing & the little apple fritters they bring out with you drinks r amazing too.

Our family are avid campers and we loved Quartz Mountain State Park! The bathrooms were clean and the campsites were close enough to be together but far enough to not bother the other sites. The river and view was very pretty. The trails were also well kept and we had a fantastic time! There were deer every morning and evening right up to the tents

I stayed four days here and I wanted something different from the ozarks where I live and I definitely received it. I had a great time camping here the showers are cleaned daily the walks are amazing the dam walk was beautiful the docks are nice with wonderful views. The wildlife is everywhere had my first encounter with a porcupine the coyotes sing me to sleep and the deer are unafraid. Fishing is good with lots of shore there's a couple towns within 20 min and not far from the other attractions. I would highly recommend this park especially of you have children

We're visiting all the state parks and we went to Quartz Mountain State Park for Independence Day weekend. We hiked up Sunrise Trail, we visited the ATV area, we walked to the dam, and we swam in Lake Altus-Lugert. We had our own spot on the beach and weren't crowded at all. It was beautiful that day and we had the best time. We can't wait to come back and camp.

Location, location, location! This park is amazingly located, nestled in a shallow valley at the end of a meandering road that passes picturesque scenery. A very relaxing stay in a lodge suite capped a weekend trip among one of Oklahoma's hidden treasures of a state park.Deer wandered around the lodge, and parking lot, unfearful of human presence, and the views are too die for.If you don't fancy a suite, the park has cabins, right off of the lake, or even camping spots for those truly wanting the outdoors experience.Basically, for a weekend getaway, or week-long adventure, you can't go wrong, here, and I highly recommend a visit!

We stopped in to the Quartz Mountain State Park Office and subscribed for a yearly 🅿️ pass. This is a must if you plan on returning or frequenting participating pay to park OK state parks. As newbies to the town we first heard of the park from friends who have experienced the town and surrounding areas before us. It didn't take much to convince us of our first day trip in town!Did not disappoint. The views are drastically different than the surrounding valleys/ plains, it's like stepping into a picture.The lakes/rivers are beautiful, the landscape is surreal. There are hiking trails for every level, camping, and much to do. The park is wonderfully kempt.Fresh air, fitness, and absolute splendor, we will absolutely be back

The park was wonderful. The showers and restrooms were great. The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is the closeness of the RV sites.

We climbed the New Horizons trails and had a lovely time taking in the views. You can see for miles and miles. We had a nice pair of binoculars with us to really get the best of the experience. We came to see if this would be a good place to watch the Perseid meteor shower but unfortunately there was a storm while we were there so we didn't get to test the darkness level.

Not meant to be a long stay, three days is more than enough to explore and have a good time. The cabin was great and had enough room for about 20 people. Will return when it is cooler out, we suffered heat exhaustion while climbing one of the mountains but that is our own fault. We love this place and will be back.

Beautiful setting. FHU RV sites are tight and close together. Great hiking/scrambling and a fun lake. We had deer through our site most weeknights when the park was more quiet. The swim beach could use a cleanup.

Quartz Mountain State Park is on the West end of the Wichita Mountain Range. Very nice State Park. Plenty of hiking, climbing and fishing. Deer walk right past you. We wanted to see and drive through the entire Wichita Mountain Range starting from Lake Altus. You will need 4x4 for part of the trip. Ended our trip on mount Scott and finally in the Parallel Forest.

It is a quiet and relaxing place, either you rent a cabin or an RV spot, nature is right outside your door. The kids loved the deer that run freely through the park. You can almost see them every evening.

Beautiful state park, so different from my part of the state. Lots of great hiking and wonderful views. All the facilities I've checked out have been excellent. There are some hiking trails that could be marked better but I was told they are working on that. The lake was very low when I was there I'm October of 2023. There is a nice fishing dock by the campgrounds, but with the water so low I'm not sure how good the fishing is there, I certainly didn't get any bites lol.

It's one of my favorite places so far. Small little mountain range in the middle of nowhere. The park is very nice with decent bathrooms and clean camp grounds.We had an RV and stayed in the mountain view area. Looked to me like this is the best spots in the park. Camping spots are very close together, more than normal, but still a great area.Deer are everywhere through the park. Lots of trails and a nice lodge up the mountain if you don't have an RV. There are also cabins to rent throughout the park.If you have dogs, be careful, there's stickers all over the grassy areas. Also, I had a great view of the solar eclipse. All and all, a nice place.

There is something special about this place.So peaceful and amazing, the prices are great.I personally love the cabins, you get your own place with no one around. It's amazing....A must do...

Beautiful place. I came on a day when they were already closed but you can still drive on the backroads and see everything. Enjoyed the nature with my mother in law.

Nice campground, great facilities. We camped in the Mountain View campground, with water and 30 amp service. Good hiking in the park, we rode our bikes to Blair, about a 25 miles round trip.

We had such a wonderful experience!! It was our first time and I feel like we have been missing out! There was so much wildlife! It was our 2nd time in our pop-camper and I'm usually a tent lover so I was worried about losing that connection to nature but no, not at all. The night sky and sunrise was absolutely magical!!!! It was one of the hottest days of summer but the water made it perfect!! We are trying out the tent sites next. I can't wait to get out there again. We were in the Live Oak North section. Bathrooms and shower were kept clean and tidy. We've camped all over Oklahoma and I highly recommend this park.

We went when it was around 40° and rainy but still found a way to have a great time. The lodge staff recommended the cave trail (very short) then we continued to the sunrise trail. If you like hiking and being able to stop and climb the rocks, you'll love this place. My only gripe would be the entrance to the park doesn't have the best curb appeal. There's an abandoned amusement park and several buildings in disrepair. It would be great if some of the old structures could be torn down.

This is a nice historic stop on Route 66. It has unique museum shops with facades. You can take the 1 hour guided tour (5 dollars for adults/4 dollars for children, or self guided outdoor tour for free.

It's a nice place to photograph on the outside, but, since there are fees to get in, we didn't bother. The "Mother Road" is long and there are many free museums with much history to make "donations" (outright or via overpriced gifts in the gift shop) so we sat this one out. It's really what someone is truly interested in seeing that matters to them, however.

One of the reasons to be in Oklahoma this trip: to absorb as much as possible about Route 66. Spent about 3 hours here. The info is broad, the cars & displays are really spectacular. The mannequins are a bit over the top: the use of these figures is a bit old-fashioned in my view. Gift shop has some excellent quality items (mugs especially) among the kitsch. The outdoor sections had too many locked doors & blacked-out windows. Having said that, it was still worth the walk outside. A quick 20 minute walk through doesn't do it justice: make the time to let the stories shown in the displays sink in-- Route 66 carried hopes and dreams, but at times The Mother Road was also a nasty & unforgiving place to be. The museum shows both sides if you give it time.

Great stopover during travels on I40 (I mean Route 66!). There is a place to park big RVs across the I40 business loop from the museum buildings. You could also park in the back by the “fire house” or “farm building” but there’s a narrow road to maneuver if towing in a bigger RV. We used the parking lot on the S side near the KFC (Walls?)

An extensive and interesting museum full of Route 66 history and artefacts. The staff are lovely and there’s so much to see. You can walk around all the old buildings and go inside some of them, including an old two story house and a huge barn.

Very cute little stop to go check out some history of route 66. Honestly they should have played that video they offer guests in public school. Also tons of information on the Oklahoma city 💣. They also have a pond on location with goldfish who are just chillin. We took a walk around the coach and looked at the old school over/heater/contraption. It was windy this day, so we did not stay long on the out door stuff.

Being a National museum we expected it to be a lot about the big picture things and transport on things that were connected to Route 66 it is actually a very small section the rest is local history and a farming museum. Interesting but not what we were expecting.

My teenage daughter is a HUGE RT 66 enthusiast, so we knew we had to stop at this museum on our road trip through OK. It did not disappoint. The huge sign out front is perfect for selfies and it was only $9 total for the two of us. There was a really cool pink Cadillac that you can sit in and pretend to drive down 66 with a monitor that she loved. Cute little gift shop where I bought a calendar and ornament and got our 66 passport stamped. Overall, friendly people and interesting displays. Well worth a visit!

This museum was a delightful surprise, Much more here than you'd think, Route 66 is the draw but there's so much other history here. The layout was clever as well. And don't miss the farm implement museum, it's very interesting too.

My granson, sister and I stopped here on our way to Texas on route 66 even if the museum was closed we loved allwe saw outdoors!! we spent 2 hours just enjoying all the amazing things out there!!! Definitely going back with my grandchildren 🥳

Great place to wander through indoors and out with lots of displays. Reasonably priced admission

Had nice time here . Associates working here are very friendly. Some areas are air-conditioned. Some are not . Please dress appropriately depending on the weather . It was a decent experience here..

We had the opportunity/honor to visit the National Rt 66 Museum in JUN_FY2024 and it was an amazing experience, a great opportunity to learn more about Oklahoma's history and legacy.We did a plant tour around and for sure it's a remarkable building.Definitely, it'sa place that deserves my respect. It was a privilege.

This was a great find. In addition to the Rout 66 museum, you also get access to the other historical museum, all on the same grounds. Lots of local history here. We spent about two hours here. All of this for $5 per person.

It's definitely worth your time. They have a 15-minute movie on some Rt 66 history, and the displays are interesting. There is plenty to see, and the gift shop prices are very reasonable.

It was a fun place to go. Looking at the past and what they used and had and did in that Era. Loved the info they gave, and also, you pay to get in, but it also gets you in the old Village Museum. I know there are different 66 Museums in different states. I'm sure each has its own items I would love to see them all. We went on a Monday. Very windy and cold.

This was one of those road side stops that we hit along our Route 66 travels to get a little break from driving, and it turned out to be such a find! Several small building make up this entire museum, and so informative. Not expensive at all, and the amount of items this museum had was amazing. from cars to rodeo memorabilia was just unbelievable. There aren't any concession stands here, but you're in the middle of town so finding a bite to eat nearby isn't an issue. There is a gift shop here.

Wonderful place to visit. A lot of different buildings on display showcasing life along early Route 66.

Great visit to this beautiful Route-66 Museum. Didn’t have enough time to see everything. It would take several days to catch all the details and the fun the creators of this place put into it.Our family thoroughly enjoyed our time here, and when we do our next Route-66 exploration tour.. this museum will be at the top of our list of places to visit!Really can’t say enough about how professionally laid out.. and FUN it was!The small fee.. between $6 -$10 for children or adults is a very tiny price considering the quality of this museum. It’s definitely a “must see” for anyone embarking upon the Route-66 journey!

This is a fun museum to visit.. kids today would be in awe of our history!!

We had brought our 3 year old here for the weekend for her birthday. We did the hotel and water park package spent $500 for Friday-Sunday. The staff wasn’t friendly and the water park is disgusting. The water is completely green. You can’t see the bottom. You can see random stuff floating around. It was pretty cold in there and we had came when it was in the 60s outside. It definitely needs a good clean and maintenance. Will not be back. Not worth the price they charge.

I firmly believe this place was amazing in its prime but it is no longer there. It is run down and falling apart. Everything is dirty and rusting. There isn’t enough seating. They don’t have all the slides open and most of the tubes need air. Concession stand is very slow. This place is not worth the ticket value. The strong positive I see is the water park staff. They are very friendly and competent.

In response to the "CEO" rebuttal....I was at this establishment on 19FEB2022. We stayed from Noon till close only leaving for diner at 5PM. When we returned, the staff advised me and my family that they had "no more towels available".So explain to me again Walter how I'm misleading guests? While your at it, Explain the massive amounts of dirt on the cabana table!!!! You know there's a pandemic right? Some people wouldn't want to put items, let alone swimwear onto such things. AGAIN BRING YOUR OWN TOWELSBring your own towels!!!!!Nothing extravagant about it but the kids seemed to enjoy it. The pizza was pretty good but you have to eat it in a (crowded) designated area.Admission staff was extremely overwhelmed and poorly managed. At least they were friendly. Also, SAVE the $99.99 and pass on the cabana! SMH * See photos

Went here over the weekend with my family. We did a stay and play package and it was well worth the money and time spent! We have a 2 year old and a 6 year old and both of them had a blast. There was still plenty for my little one to do and my 6 year old could and did ride everything! They were entertained for hours and did not want to leave! As expected, they were busy on Saturday but on Friday there were no lines, we got on everything multiple times. And even when it was busy, the lines went quickly and efficiently. The staff is friendly and helpful, food is great and the water nice and warm! Doing the stay and play package was great because after an exhausting day, we were right next door. Plus checkout in the hotel wasn’t until noon, which is awesome. We will definitely be back here, we all had a wonderful time!!

I grew up coming here and the water zoo has always held wonderful memories for me! The tickets are a bit pricy at 60 per anyone over 4 ft but it is worth it when you want a water park experience when it’s not summer. The staff is friendly and the water is very clean as well as the restrooms and showers! My only complaint is the high price. Overall I would recommend!

Great little water park. 1 star for being small enough to feel comfortable letting the kids run around while still giving them things to do. Although we did get a bit bored after just a few hours. 1 star for being indoors as we are a fair skinned family. Minus 1 star because the pools were very rough on our feet. My feet were torn up and my daughter had a nasty scratch on her knee from crawling around the splash/kiddie pad. Minus 1 star for concessions which were too expensive for the quality of food sold. Also had to pay extra for water to make my daughter a bottle because they wouldn't let us bring in our own water bottle. 1 star for the kind service and convince of the hotel being just a few feet away.

Expensive, not many attractions and the water is simply disgusting. I even got sick after a 4 hour visit there. Staff appeared very disinterested even bored. Not coming back

We really enjoyed our time at Water Zoo today. They have 3 larger slides, 1 medium slide, a couple of smaller slides for the little guys, a good sized lazy river, and a pool that goes to 4ft 6in with a fun little basketball area. My 6 yo son had so much fun! And my husband and I also had a blast. The staff were friendly, the food was good, and the ease of just being able to use your wristband to pay for anything and open lockers was awesome!!! We will definitely be back!

Men’s bathroom showers, 3 of the 5 didn’t work. Some had large holes in the floor of them. So much corroded rusty steps that someone could get tetanus from. Water was not clean. Some of the slides looked to have iron stains on the walls of them. Concrete had rust stains and mineral deposits all over it. Air ducts were dirty. The place looks run down for 60 dollars a person. They make enough in one day to have a maintenance crew on shift I’m sure. I deal with safety on a daily basis and this place is an accident waiting to happen. I hope this helps.

My family loved it. So nice to just walk back to the hotel. Also nice to not have to pay extra for tubes

We drove 1 1/2hrs to get here & I honestly wanted to turn around as soon as we entered. The “greeter” or cashier wasn’t friendly and after paying 160 dollars for 4 people, I’d expect at least a smile or thank you. The kids loved the park but it could honestly be updated considering the price. We took a break & got a meal and once again the cashier was not friendly and acted as though taking my order was not in her job description. This is a family environment so hiring some friendly people would be beneficial. I’m not sure if we will return based off the staff and their attitudes which sucks because the kids enjoyed it.

We visited over New Years Eve 2023/2024 for a few family birthdays. The hotel nearest was a great stay. The water park itself is aged. Overall we had a fantastic time and the kids enjoyed it but we likely will not return. There are many spots where concrete is breaking (not in areas to cause injury though). Some spots holding lots of water where there should be drainage. The life guards were not at all paying attention to the water. There were even people fully clothed sitting in lifeguard seats, and often times no one in the seats. We also had a number problems attempting to scan in. The water and air temperature were too cold for our 8 months old. The wave pool was a blast but we had no where to “relax” with him in a regular pool because the pool was ssssoooo cold. We had to keep him dry in order to keep him comfortable. The 8 and 5 year olds had a blast and were not cold but there were other children in attendance which were absolutely freezing. Again, overall a neat facility, but very aged and seems as though VERY short staffed which ultimately causes safety issues and areas of the park to be closed. I would not advise dropping children off without an adult in the water, unless those children are tall enough to stand up safely in all areas of water, including the wave pool. Waves were pretty intense in some areas. Fun for some but dangerous for others.

Kids loved it. It is a great hassle-free way to have fun in oklahoma. I love that the hotel is right by the water zoo. Food was a little pricey, as expected. For our morning activity ,we went to Quartz Mountain. Great way to enjoy more of Western oklahoma. You can get the rooms with water zoo entry included. It is a water slide park with 3 kiddie slides,1 medium slide, and 2 big slides, a lazy river and a baby splash and slide area, they have a regular pool separate with a basketball goal. The lazy river is slow but a little rough, so be careful not to drag your body on the bottom of the pool. The weight limit is 275lb for one person on one tube, 360lb for 2 people on a double tube ,as posted. They have towels showers and separate bathrooms. You can always walk to your room. They have a microwave and fridge. We bought some microwaveable food to save money on kids' snacks. Walmart has small green beans and corn in single serving sizes that we made microwaveable rice with. They have complementary breakfast at the hotel next door. FYI, the holiday inn express suites in clinton, which is where we stayed for spring break weekend.

What a great weekend! From the time we arrived til check-out we had nothing but the best customer service! We stayed at the adjoining Holiday Inn Express and it was perfect! The rides and other attractions are perfect for all ages. This is an awesome spot for a family weekend! I highly recommend! 👍

We traveled 4 hours to come here and as soon as we entered it was a major cluster, I paid $700 for 11 people, bought 2 family lockers, still not big enough for our 2 families.. some wrist bands opened other families lockers and not our own, I paid $60 for our food not including our other family whom spent $80, the girls in the kitchen absolutely hate their jobs, not once did anyone smile, but was mean mugging everybody. The nachos was stale, the pizza is obviously a frozen pizza, for the price it wasn’t a terrible size.. but everything besides the pizza we got was already PRE made and sitting under lights which resulted in stale food… I witnessed these ladies touch so many things but yet handled a pizza with their bare hands.. move on to finally hitting the pool, the slides are fantastic, the lady today 4/13 running the morning shift on the slides was absolutely amazing and 100% receives a 10/10 because how amazing she was with all the kids. The temp of the slide water is nice and very warm, every other part of the water was COLD, so expect a huge temperature change which did not sit well with a few of us which resulted in us sitting out. The lifeguards I wouldn’t even call lifeguards, most of them was sitting not even paying attention, I got harassed by some “security guard cleaning lady” because I couldn’t bring in my $10 bottle that I bought from there, only thing I could do was either put it in our locker or leave it on a table… I didn’t buy a $10 cup to leave it where I can’t have access to it.. this incident is what ultimately ended our stay, we left so much earlier then we had originally planned which is so unfortunate for the money I spent for only 5 hours of play time. That’s over $100 an hour. We most definitely won’t be back, very unfortunate.

Really a nice place to go. I took my kids there, while on their spring break, we went 4 days in a row. I'm definitely looking forward to going back next year.

Amazing indoor water park. We went on a day where it was just us and one other little family. It was enjoyable and so much fun. There was the sweetest lady up where the kiddie slides and stuff are. She got a few great pictures of my little family and she was so friendly. We absolutely just loved her, we will definitely be back! Worth the 2 1/2 hour drive

A great little water park to visit if you don't have anything nice near you. I took my family on a 2 1/2hr drive just to come out here. Luckily, we came on a very slow day, so all slides were open and there were no lines for ANYTHING. Nice little food court area and gift shop as well. A little pricey, but the tickets are all day, so that definitely makes it worth it!!

Great place to take the kids on a cold winter day 😀😀Plenty of safe zones for the little kids to play inSlides was awesome for bigger kids and adults (my kids are 8 & 6) they don't go off age but instead go off height of what you can ride. 48 inches or taller to get on the slides.The lazy river was great for the adults...the kids even loved it because they could just float and chill......until the lazy river dumps you I. The wave pool and you fight for your life 😃😃Will be back!!!

We had a nice time. No complaints. The facility is in good shape, saw no dangers. The price keeps it from being outrageously packed, which is fine with us. Definitely stay at the Holliday Inn so you can go back to your room and rest, eat, etc.

Don't waste your time and money. As you know from my blog, I'm very open to any indoor water park but for the price this place is very underwhelming. Staff is rude and not helpful. Cafe closes at 630 even though park is open until 8.

Very disappointed!We've been coming here for 3 years in a row. Paid $180 for 4 of us. The water was really cold, needs lots of updates throughout the place. I figured we are paying for the conditioning of the water and climate which we didn't get. The food court was used for our family to take a break and gather, the person working it was not friendly at all. We will definitely not be coming back next year. And so not worth the price we paid for it all!Also, we drove 1.5 hrs to it but will be looking for a different family tradition to start!

This is our 3rd trip and 2nd hotel stay, Hilton in 2022 and Hampton this week.Overall we really enjoy the water park (parents in 30s and 8 & 12). The outside temp was 103° and the water felt fantastic, sometimes when out of the water in certain areas I even got a little chilly. The water was very clear and didn't have a strong chemical odor. A fair bit of debris had collected on the bottom of the wave pool floor, but that seems to be a normal thing.There was only a handful of families both days. I never felt overcrowded. We were easily able to find chairs and never waited more than a minute for a slide. Spotting your family members in different areas was usually pretty easy. The staff was very friendly and helpful.We did have two major disappointments though. The yellow slide (the toilet bowl) wasn't working both days of our stay. The fountain drink machine was also broken both days, so the only option was overpriced bottled drinks.The large slides have a game called SlideBoard that has never worked in the 5 years that we have been going to the Water Zoo. My husband and I are competitive and I really want a chance to get the high score lol. I've never seen the boards but the game base and computers are still on the deck. It's also still advertised on the website.While those things were annoying it didn't ruin the trip by any means. I really like going to this place and recommend it to anyone with kids, it's a quick inexpensive trip. A little hidden gem just 2 hours from Amarillo. We will definitely be back.Original review from 2019: This place was a blast. The kids and the adults both had fun. The water was warm and clean

3rd year in our new tradition for spring break we love the lazy river most but all the amenities are awesome. Slides are super fun too!! Love they offer lockers as well as concessions.

Best ride in park isnt even operable what a waste of money. We got some lame excuse the parts have been on order 4-6 weeks. And there have been supply issues for years. You’d think they would keep spare parts on hand or at least let guests know before booking so they can have all info before booking their trip.

This place is small, 2 slides broken the day we went. A kid pooped in the pool towards middle of the day; everyone out 20 min. We left to gross! Little swimmers are not required to wear under diapers for swimming in big pool. Have to purchase all food and drink there, not bad. Front desk help rude. After kid had accident, front staff girl stated "good now hopefully everyone leaves"! Very expensive to get to enter and talk to rude people. Disappointing for sure.

Nice little museum! Staff was very friendly and they have a good gift shop. It's cheap and self guided, so you can go at your own pace. Lots of information, pictures, artifacts, etc. Several photo opportunities! Definitely worth a stop if you want to learn more about Route 66.

A must-see attraction for those who are curious about the history of Route 66. This is a well organized museum that will "walk" you through the establishment of the highway, decade by decade, with meaningful pictures, physical memorabilia, and thoughtful descriptions of events of each time period, as well as the impact that the interstate system had on the highway and supporting businesses. The owners were very knowledgeable and friendly, as well. It was a true Route 66 experience. Riding through the area on my Harley trike and meeting other riders who were making the journey from Chicago to the "other end/start" in California of Route 66 added to the whole experience. I am glad I took the time to stop in. The museum is totally dependent on each vistor's small entry fee, as well as gift shop proceeds. I was told that the estimated number of visitors per year is 60,000 with the busiest time being, of course, the summer months. This is a first class museum.

$7 adult ticket. Can see it all in 45 mins or so. Pat is such a nice lady and knows a lot ! Highly recommend. Modern and Not crowded. Cute souvenir shop too. Close by I -40

Due to a holiday we could not go inside. There is a police station next door and the cop was waiting for speeders. Very friendly, but we did not speed. 😉You can get some cool pictures of the signs and advertisements around the building. You also can peak into the old milkshake shake that has a pretty neat old 66 truck parked next to it.Will try to come back again on another trip.

This little museum is cute! It's small but has some pretty neat things. Don't confuse this with the National Route 66 Museum 25 minutes down the road in Elk City... But this is still a cool stop. The cost for adult admission is $7, so it isn't too expensive.

So after leavimg calumet oklahoma, continuing the rt.66 we stopped at the oklahoma rt.66 musuem in clinton. This place was only 7 dollars for adults and 4 dollars for kids which wasn't bad at all for the whole tour. This place shows everything you need to know about rt.66 from the early 1920s , 1930s , 1940s, 50s , 60s , 70, and the 80s which was the end of rt.66 as a official highway. This place was my favorite far as museums go and has the best prices. I definitely recommend coming here if you want to learn about the history of rt.66 and america plus some, the staff are really nice as well and there are bathrooms.

Best museum we've seen on the journey so far. Lots of memorabilia, all in good condition, great music and things to actually touch and pose in front of. The family running the business is absolutely lovely. A clean place and just very well curated. Better than the place where we went yesterday and charged the same price for MUCH less. Got my kicks here for sure!

Oklahoma Route 66 MuseumRoute 66 Clinton, OklahomaAfter arriving in Oklahoma, we knew that there were two Route 66 Museums we wanted to visit. The first one is located in Elk City, Oklahoma, and was closed for the Juneteenth Holiday. It was getting late, but we still decided to drive to the other Museum, Oklahoma Route 66 Museum, which is located in Clinton, Oklahoma. Luckily, this museum was still open, and we had some time to visit.From the exterior, the museum itself is beautiful and definitely eye-catching. On one side of the parking lot was a replica of a diner, and it was fun to look inside.The museum was great inside. It definitely is spacious, especially near when you first enter the lobby. There is a small fee to visit the museum, but it is well worth the price of admission.The museum itself houses a lot of displays, exhibits, memorabilia, photos, and artwork from different areas of Route 66. You will find photos and artwork from people you may know, such as Jerry Mcclanahan of Mcjerry's and EZ66 Guide to Route 66. There is also lots of information and history to read about Route 66, such as those with past motels, diners, and drive-ins. There was even a fascinating section on "Mobilizing On Route 66," which explains the change that came about in WW II. Another section you will find is "The Property And Preservation Of Route 66". The museum is rather spacious, and the many exhibits are great.The museum also has a fantastic gift shop and the staff of volunteers who work here are all very friendly and knowledgeable. It was fun speaking with the staff. As usual, we bought lots of souvenirs. Their level of customer service is excellent. This definitely is one museum that people need to visit when traveling through Oklahoma.

I really loved this place, it’s magically full of history good memories, highly recommended to visit. The lady in the front desk is more than kind and friendly.

It’s an amazing place if you’re interested in history. In my opinion, it took us back to a century behind and it very neatly summarized the historical events and significance of Route 66. What’s more amazing is the collection of historical artifacts that makes you feel mesmerized. It’s definitely worth a stop.

The museum is worth the drive. Great history, well presented, just fun.

This is a wonderful little museum! It is put together well by decade of the history and influence of route 66 through video, music and artifacts. It has very affordable admission, clean restrooms and a lovely gift shop. I would go back again and recommend it for families. A nice stop on the way from Tulsa to Amarillo.

Drove in and enjoyed a piece of 66 history. Fun place to visit to stretch out..

Great museum if traveling RT 66 or not. Lots of history of road and sights.

Good museum with many informative exhibits. They charge $7 for admission, which wasn’t a big deal to me; however, they’re apparently serious about collecting it from everyone who walks in the door, as I was quickly whisked over to the cash register by a staff member as I was still trying to take in the many sights in the lobby, which was a little off-putting and the reason for subtracting one star from my review.

A real highlight of the Route 66 museums. Interactive, informative and aesthetically pleasing. Must-see stop if you’re doing the route as it gives you all the history of the road.

Love this museum! Love how it was chronologically presented. They have music from the time frame for each exhibit as well as scrapbooks of the time.

We really enjoyed the history on display here. Nice detail and outlined historical path and nice exhibits. Nice selection of souvenirs as well. Highly recommend if you're in the area. Free admission for veterans w/ID.

Very well organized. Tons of information and displays. Very nice museum

Route 66 timeline museum from the beginning to end. Small admission charge seniors $5. Adults $7, kids under 6 free.Very knowledgeable friendly staff.

We absolutely loved it here! So much information, many amazing photos and displays. You won't be disappointed in visiting here! And at only $7 a person, it's definitely worth it.

This was a very informative and interesting stop on our trip. The exhibits were sectioned off by decades and had great displays with a plethora of information to read, view, and listen to. I loved learning about the history of Route 66. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend visiting this museum.

Amazing museum, very clean, comfortable. Things work! There weren't hardly any broken down displays exhibits. They also had a room full of flight simulators loaded on computers. Me and my son had a lot of fun.

My son loves going to these types of museums. Was doing some work in Weatherford and drove by this museum and knew we had to come back.So many great aircraft and other displays. The gift shop on the way out was not as overpriced as other places we've been to.

Definitely with a stop! Beautiful and professional exhibits outline the history of flight from the first flight to current space exploration. Tour is at your own pace so if you are local you could make an afternoon of it. A traveller just passing through? We leisurely visited for about an hour. Make the stop! ✈️👩🏻‍🚀🚀🛰️

Hidden gem! Great time line set up and visuals to help your realize how far we’ve come and how fast we achieved things. Totally worth the money and then some. So surprised by the amount of space and exhibits overall. We missed the hands on part for kids but will definitely come back when new exhibits are in…

This was a Harvest Host overnight stop. Large parking lot, well lit. The museum is amazing. It offers a scavenger hunt for children visiting, but I think adults will love it also. Lots of interesting planes, space rockets, etc.... Don't miss the opportunity to visit even if you're not in a RV. You will not be disappointed. Very friendly staff.

The place was nice, clean, and i did see a tour guide with a group. I'm not sure ifbthats extra or not. Staff was nice and the place and restrooms were clean. There's a kid area that is free and it's to your right when you enter the facility. Nice and open, and there are simulators that are not to user friendly, and that's from a guy who plays video games. They're still cool to experience. They are expanding some areas, and will be excited to see what they are. The good thing is that the price is very reasonable and wasn't affected by inflation. I will be back for sure.

Amazing museum with a ton of legit artifacts. I was amazed with the amount of material that were on real missions, and was delighted to learn a lot about the cold war space race and the missions around it.It can be completed relatively short, within an hour for sure, and there are not many interactive exhibits for kids, but it is still kid friendly. Great place, highly recommend if youre in the area or passing by.

Good luck making it into the museum because they happen to have an INCREDIBLE playground on the premises. As soon as we parked our daughter sprinted towards the area - complete with rocket themed play sets, swings, covered tables, and restrooms. The museum itself is staffed by some of the nicest people and the exhibits were extremely well done!

Crazy friendly staff! Really well curated museum. Great facts presented in easy to read format. Lots of hands on stuff. I've driven passed this at least a hundred times and bummed I've never stopped before. My son loved it!

This was an AMAZING museum. Although the full scale Lunar Lander Module displayed with astronauts on the moon is not a "real" one, it was much more impressive to see it at ground level and just a few feet away. Better experience than the one that I saw at the Smithsonian in Washington DC. Same with the1903 Wright Flyer. This is a great place to visit if you have any interest in spaceflight or the air flight.

This museum is such a hidden gem! We were absolutely blown away by this museum and it is continuously growing and adding to their vast collection of space memorabilia. The staff were so friendly and all the students that work at the museum is are receiving scholarships on behalf of General Stafford. The students working are very knowledgeable and passionate about their positions and the museum. Hunter gave us an in-depth tour and was great! My mom thought this museum topped the Smithsonian, it was so amazing! I highly suggest stopping in and touring. 10/10 !

This place is really pretty cool. They've got a nice exhibit with aircraft and other displays for you to look at. It's set up really good and people working were friendly. You can have a guide or just solo it. They got a nice little gift shop that was fairly reasonable. Been 2 times so far from Norman and playing to go again since they continue to add new exhibits. Definitely worth the drive.

It was a nice and fun experience. Very educational and my kids loved it. They loved the space ships and plane displays but wish there was more interactive things to do.

Great museum! We really enjoyed it. Not your average tourist trap at all—lots of real artifacts display including the Gemini VI capsule. Very well designed museum and fun, educational scavenger hunt.

This place is filled with historic aircrafts and it even gives me a sense of my family member who used to be in the military flying these airplanes. I have lots of pictures of the place and this place is just a wonderland of its own. It’s been a few years since I’ve been here, and I really do miss driving up to Weatherford to go see this place. I hope that some other time I can come back here and see how things have changed since I’ve started coming over.It was worth the 1 hour drive from Oklahoma City to Weatherford to come see this place. I had so much fun here, and hopefully things improved over the years here. Here are the pictures of the things I saw down below.

The museum was well done showing a lot of aviation and space history. I didn't quite expect as much about space, but remembered that Stafford was an astronaut - so it made sense. The tunnels made from upcycled parts of aircraft were a treat. I'm a total aviation geek, so this is my kind of place!

Fun to learn about another person who contributed loads of influence to our first trip to the moon and beyond.Very good selections of full scale real and replica planes. But it had a large number of real Mercury, Gemini and Apollo rocket parts. Including full size Apllo engine, space flown pieces and the Apollo 10 capsule which was flown by Stafford in preparation of the first moon landing.Very good place just off Interstate 40

We thoroughly enjoyed this museum!! So much knowledge and amazing pieces. The scavenger hunt for the children kept everyone engaged from my 10 yo to my 15 yo. We recommend this museum for everyone.

There is so much history in this museum. If you want to be thorough you definitely need at least 2 hours

Outstanding artifacts beautifully displayed (many genuine, also some exact replicas). Interactive points throughout are great for kids, students, and adults. Excellent, well -written information placards…just a top quality experience from start to finish…and the museum is expanding! The Smithsonian has come to the Oklahoma heartland with this excellent museum.

Wonderful first class air & space museum. Excellent collection of artifacts including a selection of space flown items. A must visit museum for any space enthusiast

Spectacular hidden gem in the middle of nowhere. I am an aeronautical engineer and terrific place to take my kids and educate them not only on history of flight and space, but of the actual technology and how things work. Cutaways of turbine and internal combustion engines to teach how things work! Best air and space museum I have been to including all in DC area, Dayton OH.We stopped on a whim and it is great

Cool aviation museum with pieces from the three main categories: wright brothers and early flight, space exploration, and modern jets.

Even the ladies' restroom was museum worthy with inspiring vintage photos of women in aviation. There were nice exhibits and lots of historical items from suits to rocket models.Also a good place for a small conference or event.

We live an hour from this museum and it’s always worth the trip!!!!! My son loves space and we’ve been here several times and it never gets old for him. Definitely a hidden gem in Oklahoma! Very cool for old and young alike.

What a great museum. I didn't get time to check out everything, but you could definitely spend a whole day looking at everything.There's definitely a variety and some unique pieces to see. Truly a hidden gem out in Weatherford.

So much to see! I drove all the way up from Lubbock to see this museum and it was definitely worth it! There's a lot to see from aeronautics to astronautics. I recommend at least 2 hrs to comfortably see/read things. I just wish the gift shop had a better selection of t shirts, fridge magnets (I bought the flimsy one) and post cards. Other than that, wonderful museum! If I am ever in the area with friends or family, I'd take them there.

This museum exceeded our expectations! A lot of information about aviation and space. Seeing the real life Gemini VI and the Titan Rocket was the highlight of the museum if I had to pick. Plus the new playground across the parking lot was a hit with the kids!An absolutely must for any one! Worth the drive from Oklahoma City.

Great place as a harvest host. Great to see so many planes in a small museum. Displays were well done. Worth the stop for aviation enthusiasts.

this was an absolutely beautiful and fun place to camp at. being a privately run park i personally feel the prices were reasonable to stay and enjoy the park. as far as scenery goes in Oklahoma this is one of the most beautiful and interesting places you will find here.it was extremely peaceful and relaxing as well. the walking trails were very well taken care of. and ranged from nice & easy beginner trails, to challenging but rewarding trails.my only main complaint was the bathrooms. they were a little on the dirty side. a group of ladies pulled up at one point and looked like they were cleaning the bathrooms, but they were in there for less than five minutes and walked out. when i used the restrooms after they left they looked just about the same haha. i don't blame them though i wouldn't want to clean camp ground bathrooms either (sorry to throw you under the bus ladies). but they were for sure not the worst camp ground bathrooms i have seen by far.i highly recommend coming here if you are am outdoorsy type and are looking for a fantastic place to come hike, camp, repel, or just relax!

Great family camping just outside Oklahoman city in under an hour. I had no idea this was in my backyard such a great hiking trip! It's a bird paradise in the canyon! They also have a pool and concessions!

So much positive change since I'd been last. 4 stars since I've never seen a perfect park in my life. With that being said, either the neighbors to the North of the Canyon or a house behind the entrance gait played music all day long and I don't think they realize it bounces off the canyon walls and you can hear it everywhere on the property. South end trails, N.E. trail, overland route, everywhere. People come to hear silence or birds, bugs, frogs etc.The campgrounds, bathrooms, trails, ALL were clean and taken care of. The staff was super helpful with the check in and maps. Camp neighbors were pleasant and the overall atmosphere was very peaceful. I'll be back for sure.

We really enjoyed an early Valentine getaway at Red Rock Canyon. We were the only tent campers for the entire week with the nights being rather chilly. Quite a few RV's but they were in another area of the park. It was a very peaceful week. It was so fun exploring all the trails. We especially liked the hike to Lucy's Lookout on the new Scissortail trail. The park is very clean and the staff is friendly. This is our first trip here since childhood so of course it is smaller than we remembered. It is nonetheless a nice sized campground. :-) There is a cool glamping tent that can be reserved. They have a swimming pool and concessions that operate in the summer. We watched multiple people come in and enjoy the repelling areas. There are a few playgrounds in the park as well. It was a wonderful week! It would be nice if the showers were free but that was set up when it was a state park. Hinton is just a few minutes drive from the park. We tried a couple of restaurants in the area and they were great! There is also a grocery store and a couple of dollar stores in hinton as well as a very cool museum that gives an interesting and informative glimpse into the area during the gold rush days. Overall great adventure. :-)

I went here on a cold fall day, the foliage was beautiful. Some parts of the trails were too muddy to walk, which gives me a reason to return here. It's beautiful!They have a fun little playground with swings and climbing logs.

Red Rock Canyon is one of those hidden gems that you don't really know about unless someone tells you or you just so happen to drive by once you take exit 101 off from I-40. I repelled there over two decades ago when I lived in that part of OK, had a great time! Now that I'm older I don't so much do the repelling but I definitely drive through and enjoy the scenery. Definitely looking forward to the pool being revamped and reopened, my kids and I will be there as soon as it is!

We stayed 4 nights. The owners were fantastic, beautiful, with hiking trails and very quite. The trails were amazing and well maintained. We found one area where beavers had cut down several trees and there were lots of birds throughout.

We accidentally found this place on the way back home from the West. We needed to walk our dogs to stretch from a long drive, and this park was wonderful! You can't see what awaits you until you get closer to the park. Beautiful red rocks all over and this park is enormous! Very well maintained, our dogs didn't get any stickers or any sort of ouchees. $10 entrance fee was totally worth it, and I wished we stayed longer. So many trails and paths that you can explore, no wonder why it's called adventure park. We will be back for camping sometime for sure as we saw many tents and cabins for rent. Dogs must be on leash at all times. Can't wait till come back to explore more!

I’ve been coming here since I was a kid and I still love coming here!🌲…Well taken care of, nice trails and lots of signs and information given to help you find your way around!🥾We had such a nice time today, climbed up to a trail for the first time here and it was a blast, a nice breeze, beautiful weather!Highly recommend coming here and checking everything out if you want to hit some trails and get yourself out in nature!☀️

Red Rocks Canyon ‘Adventure Park’, Hinton Oklahoma. Interesting campground. Pretty good misleading marketing on their website but we needed a stop off. This is a state park-really? Pulled in and no one at the front gate but not uncommon. Proceeded forward to our reserved site#50. Suddenly steep hill tight turn sign. Pucker up for a few minutes while you go into the canyon-it was steep and twisty. Not really big rig friendly between steep hill and untrimmed trees IMHO. Campground is spread out but where to go is poorly marked. Driving through the park there is a handwritten sign “overnight must check in at office”. Finally found site 50- right across from bath house. Bath house is questionable -we wouldnt use the showers but bathroom’s are functional. Only two other campers on our leg. We have power (50amp) but water is broke. Humm. So I drive to the office to check in. It looks like the office was abandoned when they filmed walking dead here. Not sure they did but this is like an abandoned park weird . Not sure where the office is because I checked all abandoned buildings. If you look at the website it’s paradise lol. Our site is ok. It’s cooling down outside and supposedly getting in the 60’s tonight. We would love that. We are here in Oklahoma though and it’s a one and done stop buyer beware-$41 a night is a ripoff for this. Bad experience with Oklahoma state parks now.

The park is in private hands, no longer a state park. The Rv sites are set up well, though the drive in and out is very steep.It is a pretty park but it’s a long way for a restaurant or other amenities.The pool is nice but was packed with kids and it is an additional $8.00 per person to use it on top of fairly expensive camping fees. We paid for it coming in and didn’t use it after we saw how busy it was.

A hidden gem and absolute must visit if you enjoy hiking and camping. Came for the day which a day pass is $10 per vehicle. In my opinion, you definitely get your moneys worth. The operators do an awesome job of cleaning the park clean.Did the orange dot trail which was clearly marked throughout the trail. The trail was narrow in spots but still it was a great hike.Well worth the 70 min drive from our place in the OKC metro area. A must visit for the outdoor enthusiasts!

Wow! What an amazing adventure we had at the Red Rock Canyon Adventure Park. When we got there, there were 1000 folks having an Easter picnic. We had been alone in the desert prior to this for weeks! The atmosphere was absolutely invigorating! Music! Kids having egg hunts. Kids getting rides on ATVS! And, then it got dark. Almost all of the folks left. There were only two other campers in our area! It became peaceful. I imagine it’s generally like that. Nice restrooms and showers. A pool and a playground. Plenty of group picnic area. The best best park is the Red Rock Canyon! Thank you to the owners! They were so very pleasant. 10/10 would return. If you like to rappel, you can do that too!

Beautiful campground! Love the red rock and hiking trails. Site #19 the best. No spaces in front of us. Clean and well maintained. Just gorgeous rocks and woods. Peaceful and quiet. Lady at entrance to park extremely helpful and friendly! Pet friendly. Good phone service AT&T. Second time to stay here and hope to come back!

Red Rock canyon is my favorite campsite because you get to camp down in the canyon and most of the plots have grass to set down on and that seems to be at a premium at most campgrounds in Oklahoma. It doesn't look great right now because they are doing a lot of construction right now. I'm not sure why because it used to be very nice and serene with lots of grass but there are large areas of bulldozed trees brush and grass right now so it was a bit of a let down today.

Red rock canyon, was another check off our state park list. Make sure to take lots of water with you if you are hiking. So much hiking and so much to see! We enjoyed our trip.

Great place , close to Okc.Easy to hike , good for beginners , children and ol folk ;)

Pack your camper and bring your climbing and repelling gear. Great little park to practice climbing and repelling while camping over night on the wall or in your camper.Fall was a great time as there were only 3 other campers in the park so it is quiet and there are thousands of stars.It's also great for a day including some fishing and hiking.Adventure krewe tip. Reserve camp suites A, B, OR C for full hookups 50 amp, water, sewer. Our get the campground near the end of the park for a less traffic camping experience.There are rest rooms but no showers and all the equipment, tents, roads, and trails are well used and could really use some refreshing which is why only 3 stars

We had a great 2 night stay at the RV park. We rappelled and rock climbed, you will need your own knowledge and gear to do this. The new owners are very nice and have some vision for the park. We look forward to seeing how they move forward with the ideas we shared with them and their own plans. Thanks!

Awesome place! We love the contrast of the red rocks with the green trees and grass. We camped there recently and really enjoyed it. Plenty of shade at our camp spot and clean bathrooms. Fees are definitely reasonable for the amenities and for how well the park is cared for. The new owners are super friendly and have done a great job making improvements. It's also nice to have the walking/hiking trails so accessible.

Love this State Park! It was relaxing and not much people this time around. 😁 I enjoyed the weather and the trail with my dog.

Love the park! Very clean, well maintenance, beautiful nature and great service from the office.

Very nice campsites, clean bathrooms/showers, gorgeous hiking trails and very nice staff. 100% worth the trip.$8 a day to use the pool is a bit much but the water is cool, there's a water slide and a rock climbing wall. It also closes at 6 which is a bummer but we enjoyed our time there.

We had a wonderful experience in Red Rock Canyon. From the moment we arrived we were greeted very pleasantly and were given an overview of the park. The Nash tent meet all our needs and was very clean and nice. The bed was very comfortable. Having firewood provided was a plus, so nice not to have to bring any. The pool was perfect and staff was very good. The showers and bathrooms were all very clean and well kept. We climbed and did some light hiking. Overall we think our stay was great.

we used the facility for a family reunion and the experience was awesome! The staff is friendly and the service was good. We used the Outlook Catering for our breakfast and lunch and the food was good. Irving was in charge of the buffets and breakfast was ready at 8 am and lunch at 12 noon as we asked. Irving was and his staff were friendly and very service oriented. After the meals were served they put all of the leftovers in to go boxes for our family to eat take home or eat later.

Amazing scenery! As well as amazing rv spots! Bitter creek is my favorite, Quiet, hardly any traffic, beautiful creek next to the parking spots for Rv’s. Amazing trails, as well as a restaurant (Foggy bottom, amazing, definitely recommend) not far from it. If you have the chance GO TO ROMAN NOSE!

Lodge currently has no restaurant.Went here 30 years ago, even before that, park has changed.Used to have a more open and primitive feel, I think I liked it better.Springs are still cool, a quick trip from OKC, but the Arbuckles are still a better destination.Roman Nose has lost a bit of charm.

This Park is one of the Best!!! With Tammy at the Lodge she is very knowledgeable. All the employees at the Lodge are very helpful and friendly. Nice little gift shop where most is reasonably priced. There are alot of good trails and plenty to do with a wonderful general store that give lot of more options to the park

Went hiking on trails to the springs of water. Seen caves and several natural springs. Has a little area you can get in clear water to cool off very nice and cool restrooms. There are 2 pools the main pool is nice and big with slide. Nice and relaxing.

The park was clean and peaceful and beautiful even in winter. Great stay, got some hiking and mountain biking done in a beautiful setting.

I lived within 10 miles of Roman nose for 19 years and never spent a weekend here. Brought my family out here in a camper and we've had a really good time enjoying the cool springs, swimming pool, and the general store. Replace Foggy bottom with a new concept and get the lake filled back up and this place could really be a weekend destination. A ton of improvements have been made around the park the new signage and trails are awesome! Park is well maintained, bathrooms have been clean and there is no litter/trash everywhere like in other parks.

Wow! A beautiful place to camp. We were in Cedar cove where we hooked up to electricity. The bathrooms were clean and had hot water. There is a pool but it was not open in April. We hiked around. There is also a cement bike path we road. The water level in the lake is down but that is every where we travel. We will be back.

So beautiful. Bring a meal and water. Nice hikes and even a pool. Natural spring water is so icy.

The location is not good, but the park is great. Excellent pool, walking trails, picnic areas, and overall all outside areas for camping.

Played a round of golf on one of the most picturesque courses in the state. It’s a humbling experience for most golfers. Absolutely loved it and already planning my return. Thanks, Leslie for all the pointers. See you soon! Stayed a short drive away at Lucky Star Watonga!

So beautiful and the employees were very nice and informative. We didn't get to spend much time but we will for sure be back. The Spring Trail was prefect for our 5 year old twins and our older boys enjoyed it too. Our hope is to go on the longer trailer next visit.

This park is a beautiful place. Cool 💧 pools ... Beautiful scenery 🌳 trees and flowers... Hiking trails 👣... picnic tables... grills for cooking 🍳. Plenty of 🌞 sunshine and shade. There is even a swimming pool. 🏊‍♀️ . We stayed for a few hrs enjoying nature ... 🍃 waterfalls ... enjoying the beauty of this great state ..Oklahoma 😊 .. it had a native feel....I ❤️ OK..A great place for a family 👪 day trip.. Stelly loved it.

I was raised in Watonga, but haven't lived in Oklahoma in 20 years. Coming back for a funeral, we opted to stay at Roman Nose Lodge. It was perfect; the room was comfotable, the food was outstanding, the ambiance was peaceful. From the first of the stay to saying goodbye, the staff working there were so friendly. They are a big part of why we will return. Even with our large group coming and going. This will be our go to place when visiting family. My family and I had a wonderful stay.

We tent camp every year and this year our campsite was one of the teepees. Our 4 year old grandson loved sleeping in it. We went to the natural springs every day and did a couple of hikes. We made some new friends and had a great time!!!

We've stayed at the lodge a few times this year (during the off season) while visiting family in Watonga. We've never received such wonderful hospitality. The staff are incredibly kind, friendly, and understanding with our rambunctious nieces and nephews. The lodge itself is immaculate, with communal areas in the lobby and a nice little gift shop. All it's missing is a restaurant right now, which I'm told there are prospects to fill that space. There is a state park general store located in the campground with good cheap food.The rooms are spacious, updated, and had one of the most comfortable beds we've ever slept on.Also, I ran the full hiking trail system here and was pleasantly surprised at the difficulty, variety, and beautiful scenery. The southern most trails were a great technical challenge and were very well maintained. The views on top of Inspiration Point are well worth the trek!My only complaint is that the showers of the normal rooms are a little tight. If you're of plus size, you'll struggle with these. Booking the suite will provide ample bathroom/shower space!We look forward to staying here again during the spring/summer months to get the full experience.

I love the running trail ,it's perfect for training and exercise. Granddaughter and I went on the horse ride from the stables and had the best time !!our guides were awesome.

This park was great! The people were super super nice! View is also amazing. I was sad the pools weren’t open until memorial day but we went hiking and went to the super cold springs. Sooo pretty. I loved this trip so much.

Having stayed in the park from the 60's, I have always been a supporter. Due to the lack of food service, I have chosen not to stay at the Lodge. I mistakenly thought the new restaurant was open for my recent trip to Watonga. I was one of 3 rooms booked during my stay. The staff told me it would take 7-10 minutes for hot water to reach my shower. There was only one bar of soap in the bathroom. I had to ask for additional soap for the shower. The historical print over the bed had been removed and all that remained was the Velcro and unpainted strips (obviously, I have stayed in this room before). I brought a pizza from town for dinner and was told I could not sit on the patio outside the dining room unless it was a private party. So, I sat beside the closed swimming pool with no view of the park. So very disappointed in my experience.

so much to do here, we stayed in the teepees it was so beautiful and loved the area, great showers and bathrooms.

A beautiful area to relax for the weekend. The heart healthy trail is my favorite to hike on! I love camping out here as well, though sometimes you won't have the most polite neighbors lol they can be a little noisy @ night.

We did a hike in the Mesa Loop and it was a great experience. It was my first time going there and I felt that the water level was little low but was none of my concerns. If you wanna spend your day hiking and sightseeing then I would definitely recommend this. This place have options like #Hikingtrails #Campgrounds #RVPark #Restrooms #Golfcourse

Great place for moderate hiking. The room was comfortable, but noisy Heat/AC unit. Clean but not 5 Star. Will stay again.

I ventured out to explore their trails. Upon my return journey, I discovered that they had two calves engaged in the search for sustenance and hydration. Their ribs were visible. It was a deeply saddening experience. Despite my attempts to converse with the desk clerk, she appeared more focused on her phone call than the individual before her. I tried to approach the general store and golf store, but inevitably, all stores shut down at five o'clock.

I used to enjoy the town of Watonga and campgrounds here ages ago for a small convention called Oklacon. I think about it so much. It's a lovely quiet park and one I miss deeply. I'd recommend it to anyone. Saw the milky way for the first time there. It was deeply moving. The park amenities are nice and clean.

We enjoyed seeing this historic fort. It’s too bad that the buildings were closed to the public, however each one had nice plaques allowing you to know what role it served at the fort. Hopefully in the future there will be enough funds to staff this important site.

What a shame. Made a special trip based on Internet descriptions. It's about a mile north of old Route 66; drove to find it was closed. The welcome center had a "Return at 10" sign in the door, but was closed (at 10:30). After a closer examination, saw a handwritten sign low in the glass "closed because of COVID." Need a sign at the entry off of Rt 66 with Open / Closed. Internet might also let people know. Later down the road, wondered if maybe the museum was in a different building and might've been open.

Great experience! The tours were intriguing. Tour guides were so comitted to the history of fort and told us so much information about indian wars, cavarly and the role of fort during WW1 and WW2.

Such a cool place and a wonderful piece of history! Stop in and speak with the amazing woman in the museum. She is knowledgeable and tells the history of the Fort!

Excellent ace to visit. Anyone interested in 1800 military would love it. Many old fort buildings still in tact.

Visited on a whim and wasn't disappointed. Lots of history happened in the corner of America and it definitely is worth learning about!

My wife and I stumbled across the neatest event going on. We had never been here but drove by it hundreds of times. We decided to take a small detour before heading home. As we approached the entrance there was a sign for a free event. As we get to the Fort we see a bunch of people. There was a calvary event happening. We sat for around an hour to observe. We had the pleasure of speaking with the director and his wife, and troopers as they are known. A neat little place that is well kept and gives you a sense of what life was like many years ago.

Beautiful grounds. We did not go into the museum. It was closed for a little while during our visit. Being run by volunteers, be patient if they aren’t there. A note will be in the door. We enjoyed walking around in the sun taking photos. Don’t forget to visit the Cemetery.

If you visit, make sure you talk to Deb. She's the sweetest and very knowledgeable. If you like history, make sure you plan on going to see the Christmas guns and their wreath placing ceremony. It was fantastic to watch a real old canon being fired as well as the pistols that were fired in between. While the museum itself is very small, it was a fascinating visit. I definitely suggest going if you have an inkling for history. While it is "kid-friendly", my 9 year old child was most amused with running around in circles outside with his friend. Again, worth the drive and conversation with Deb, a historian extraordinaire, was the absolute best!

Unfortunately we arrived were there was a meeting. Still got to look around and it was very remarkable! Definitely check it out of you are road-tripping it’s a quick detour and worth it just for the views

This was a pretty neat museum. It was $6 for adults, and $4 for kids. Unfortunately, one of the 2 buildings you are actually allowed to go inside wasn't open when we were there. But, there is still a decent amount to see even if you don't pay to go inside the museum. I also recommend driving up the hill to the cemetery. There's definitely some good history here.

Army and Calvary history worth exploring. Potential of this property being used as a public venue for events Oklahoma and seasonal is underutilized. Would be a great place for fairs, concerts , historical reenactments, harvest fest, farmers markets , as well as a place to remember and learn about the history of the area. I would love to see Fort Reno stay preserved and get the recognition it deserves.

Home of the US Cavalry Association. Nice museum. Work in progress to restore buildings. Host for cavalry competition in September. On Historic Route 66.

I loved my visit here. So much information and history. Stories these grounds posses is beyond amazing. The staff was so friendly and fun to talk to. The other visitors were awesome. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained.

This is a national treasure that few will bother to explore. Located west of El Reno, Oklahoma on a section of historic US Route 66, with a history dating to the Indian Wars of the 1870's and more recently supporting military services around the world by providing trained horses and mules. This site served as a WWII prisoner of war camp too. Fort Reno has several original buildings and the historic cemetery where early soldiers, staff, dependents and some of the agency mission staff are laid to rest. An adjacent section was added for the POWs that passed while in custody. One of the horses raised and trained here, "Black Jack," was featured as the riderless horse in over 1000 funerals at Arlington national cemetery, including significant state funerals. These include Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Herbert Hoover, and General Douglas MacArthur.Much of the original post lands were granted to US department of agriculture, and it is used for research for cattle grazing and prairie ecology.The smaller post parade grounds and buildings that house the museum and exhibits are reasonably well preserved, and the musem staff are quite knowledgeable and helpful. Much of their operating budget is donations from visitors and local preservation groups. If you visit, please be generous and help preserve this treasure not just for local history, but as a legacy of the nation.

A little pricey we stayed two night in may of 2022. Two adults and two kids in tree house 4. My children had fun but there was a lot of down time with nothing to do. It would have been night to have a splash pad here as well to keep busy. The people that work here or own it are okay not the best customer service but you can tell they love working with the animals and it really shows. We feed animals and walked the park 3/4 times in the two days we where here. When you thank about the amount it cost to care for the animals it make since for there pricing. Definitely an experience I appreciate my children getting to have. Very peaceful and quite.

This Safari zoo in Tuttle is a cute and fun lower budget place to check out in Oklahoma! My husband and I stayed the night in their #3 tree house, above the white tiger exhibit. It was a nice rustic treehouse that came with balcony, and even an outdoor fire pit and grill for those who bring their own propane tank.Around 6pm we went to see the animals. We were glad we did because they were most active around that time. They have some cute and beautiful Safari animals. Since it's lower budget they don't have a lot to see but what they do have is nice.We were there Friday evening. The zoo wasn't busy when we got there and when we were exploring it felt very private. The couple of staff members we saw were really friendly and gave us food to feed the monkeys and got the white tigers to get closer to us. That made the experience so much better.Some parts of the park feel a little abandoned, but we still enjoyed our time there. They have some pretty cool areas to explore. They even have an outdoor dining area that has an upper patio with furniture, grills and a fire pit. It was pretty cool to see.We feel like the park has a lot of potential and what they do have now is nice. It's a nice place to go to when you want to plan to get away from the busy modern day social media lifestyle. It's fun for kids and teens, especially if you get the VIP to be able to pet and hold some animals. Even couples who love animals, like us, would enjoy it there.

My family was visiting from Utah. We went here and showed up right in time for the VIP tour. Which includes 10 animals being brought out that you can pet, and the zoo. We all had a great time! The staff were all great. The animals are very well cared for. We will definitely go again and want to do the over night experience!

We stayed overnight in the huts. The pictures don’t do it justice. The huts have AC and were a nice, cool break from the sun outside. The beds were comfortable and everyone slept well. There is a small fridge, microwave and coffee maker. We opted to eat out in the town and it was great.Staying at the zoo we were able to have an animal encounter shortly after arriving. We got to know the animals and then take a break at the huts. We went back later that evening when jt was cool to see the animals again.At night you can sit outside and listen to the lions roar!It felt amazing waking up and sipping coffee by the pond, watching the turtles.The zoo is so open, relaxing, and clean! The animals all seem so happy! We will defiantly be back in the fall to visit again.

Went on our last day of spring break. We paid 200 for our family of 5. Which included the admission for the park and the animal Incounter. We are able to hold snakes and pet other animals. My son loved this, he is very big into animals. The park is also great. We will return.

My kids was on Fall break this week and we visited this beautiful and AMAZING Safari. This is DEFINITELY a great place for kids to learn educational things about these exotic animals, reptiles and big cats. We got lucky not many people was there. The VIP portion was a fun experience with kids getting to see the animals up close and handling a few 😊. Kim was AMAZING every animal she brought out had a name and was very alert! The kids ENJOYED recognizing animals from Madagascar Movie 😂. One of the Lemurs was actually named “King Julius” 😂 Kim also educated the kids on Tom the porcupine about “not shooting” quill the shock look on the kids faces was priceless haha. Overall they loved every staff member because they were polite from checking in, walking around to holding the animals . Elroy was definitely our favorite he has the biggest eyes and checked Kim pocket for more snack 😭 We will definitely try and visit once a year.

I cannot recommend this place enough! The staff was a friendly and knowledgeable. Bill (the owner) has an incredible story! He also makes you feel so welcomed by introducing himself to every guest. We will definitely be coming back, it is a great place for any age range. My two year old absolutely loved the experience! Wide variety of animals that are well kept and cared for. Pay for the VIP encounter it is worth it!

Had a mini getaway with my husband. We stayed in one of the treehouses overlooking the tigers, we got to see the bear early in the morning even though we weren't able to during our tour. Since it was Saturday we had the option to join in with others at a big bonfire, however we decided to opt out and have our own little bonfire at the fire-pit in the treehouse. We also did the Mega VIP tour the next morning. We woke up super early and got to see the sunrise.Definetly recommend staying there. Will be back soon to stay a bit longer.Here are some of the many pictures we took.

We came for my niece and nephew’s birthday party. Birthday parties at the park are amazing! We got an air conditioned party room and then the kids got up and close animal encounters. They got to hold and pet a baby kangaroo, a fox, a python, a red lemur , a hare, a cockatoo, a baby porcupine, a lizard and a baby lemur. The staff were super helpful and friendly. We also got to feed the monkeys and baby deer and had acres to visit the whole zoo.

Absolutely amazing. Great staff and the rooms clean. We had the African hut #3 and it was perfect on the lake with a fountain. The mega vip pass was wonderful getting to feed so many animals. Absolutely a must!

Honestly, I really liked this place, I really enjoyed it... if you're going to stay in the cabins, you should know that they don't have toilets, or sinks, or showers... 🫠 the bathroom is public and is at 5- 7 minutes walking (I didn't bathe) lol pretty cool staff, animals looks healthy...

this zoo was quite the visit. our family did the VIP passes for $35 a person. there were around ten encounters in the lodge that we got to be a part of (snakes, rabbits, birds, lizards, and even lemurs that you get to touch and hold). however, there are also tickets for $15 a person to just skip the encounters and walk around the exhibits. we also got to feed monkeys and deer. the monkey pulled his own food on the rope (super cool)! the animals looked happy and cared for. it's really a beautiful zoo.

If you are going, its worth paying to pet and hold the animals. It was a moment for us to get over our fears and they did an excellent job helping my mum and I. Ask in advance to make sure you know what the feeding and petting times are. The monkey feeding was our next fun part. Overall great experience and we had fun.

Spent 2 hours here today and enjoyed every moment! This was such a great park/zoo. There were 6 of us in our group and I highly recommend the VIP so you can hold and pet the animals! The staff there was so friendly and the owner even saw that my son didn’t want to leave and gave him a toy! It was so nice! Really enjoyed visiting, come to find out they even have rooms you can rent out and stay in! We will definitely be back!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. I rented one of the large African Manors. The accommodations were absolutely incredible. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything that we needed. Meaning a lot of the stuff I brought was completely unnecessary. The atmosphere the nighttime view the sounds of the animals as the sun sets and it starts to cool off. The experience is just incredible. I brought my two adult children to spend the evening with me we cooked out on the patio Enjoyed the beautiful view from the fountain, lit pond and basically had a private roam of the park after the sunset I cannot recommend this experience enough to anybody. It would be an incredible place for a family reunion a great place for a first date night, you name it, and these animals are taken care of. You can tell that they are loved , I love this place so much that I want to come and volunteer out here whenever they need me. Spend the money spend and the time with your family. The experience of being so close to these animals is absolutely breathtaking. It has changed me forever and I would do it again in a heartbeat, and anybody who writes a negative review about this place just has a problem with their life in general, because this place is out standing. Thank you Bill and the lovely lady who gave us our tour as well as the other ladies in the office you have made our experience amazing!

My daughter turned 16 last week and all she asked to do was go to a zoo because she loves animals. When we found Tiger Safari and saw that it wasn't too far, we booked 3 nights hoping it would be an incredible experience and it sure was! We were able to walk the zoo any time the gate was open and each time we saw something different! The animals are well taken care of and it's obvious that the staff cares deeply for each one. The owner is truly passionate about what he does and is a very nice guy with an incredible story. This is a definite MUST for anyone who enjoys spending time with animals!

Was a great experience! Stayed the night and will be back!! Family loved the tree house with the view of the animals! Staff super friendly and very informative. The area was super clean and great to watch and interact with all the animals. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

My family and I love this place. We have gone a couple of times now and have stayed in the cabins. The cabins are gorgeous amd worth every dime you spend. I recommend staying a couple of days to get the full experience the park has to offer. They definitely try to provide a lot of activities for family fun and the whole glamping experience. The only reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5, was the gift shop was lacking especially when you're staying several days you would like to be able to purchase more than a very select variety of drinks and snacks. Additionally, we had to park quite a bit aways from our cabin and hauling luggage across gravel, wrangling kids and my mom that is limited with walking, it would have been nice to park by our cabin.

This is an amazing stop if you are in the area! My wife and I visited on a weekend trip and got the VIP package, we got to hold and pet some amazing exotic animals and even feed a few!All the animals seemed quite healthy and happy 😊The price was reasonable and we stayed for a few hours, they also have cabana rentals that overlook the animals! All in all a great example of a private park.

What a phenomenal place to stay and/or visit! This was our second trip and we had the best time! We got to stay in the water overlook treehouse! Listening to the animals talk back and forth at night while enjoying the beautiful skyline view 💜We stayed the whole weekend and had the VIP experience both days! Let me just say that no 2 VIP experience is the same! Sarah and Amy are phenomenal with the animals and with guests! Our son is autistic and struggled with the reptiles (he says they’re his arch nemesis lol) and they were just so patient and kind to him. Saturday night was the big bonfire in the zoo surrounded by the animals where we roasted marshmallows and chatted with other guests!The first time we visited was in 2020 and we fell in love with the place! Since our last visit they have expanded and added more animals, and more treehouses built since our last visit too!Bill, the owner, is such a great person to sit and talk with too! I love the excitement and passion he gives off when he talks about this place! Next time we visit I just gotta sit down and hear stories of his adventures! There are tons of candid photos displayed around the zoo showing his with the animals in the wild as well as in the park! You can see the genuine love and devotion he has for this place and the animals!Such an amazing weekend all around! We’re already planning another trip back after we get settled in Michigan!! Thanks for an awesome weekend Tiger Safari Zoo!

We went on the fourth of July. So we didn't see many people. The parrot said Hi to us when we walked in. We got the VIP, so we got to hold a coatmundi which is in the raccoon family, a cockatoo, We bottle fed a baby zebra, which was a part of the VIP. The workers there gave us animal crackers to feed the deer and kangaroos. They also gave us monkey treats and we put them in the bucket andthe spider monkey reels it in, the other one you have to do it. We fed a white tabby tiger chicken which is 1/30. I lost my phone there, so we turned around and they brought us in the side by side and we found it. They also gave us 2 free water bottles. It is a family owned zoo.

We brought our family for a little getaway and stayed in the African Manor Hut #3. Upon walking up you could tell that the grounds needed just a little bit of attention and care. The manor itself is beautiful. We were really excited to use the big jacuzzi tub to soak and relax before bed. But we couldn't. The water pressure was so bad it would have taken over an hour to fill. Also the water turned cold about 15 minutes into trying. Things were just dusty and dirty like the bare minimum had been done for cleaning. The stove didn't work at all. We were told Upon arriving that it may blow a breaker but we checked and that wasn't the case. It just didn't work. When we made coffee I went to use the creamer and noticed thankfully that it expired in 2022. I went thru the kitchen and threw away a lot of items that were expired that other people had left and just hadn't been checked at all. The bathroom toilet more than a few times had to be messed with so it would fill back up with Water. We were disappointed there was no bonfire after it said there would be on the website but we still had a fire pit on the porch and made our own smores. I know these are all sort of little minor things but when you pay $265 for such a cool accommodation it's just disappointing that some of these things are being neglected. BUT now here's the good! The animal safari part is COOL. You can walk the grounds freely until 10pm and hear the animals all night! It does look a little run down. But the animals are so sweet! We got to touch and hold some of them including the 12 foot python and the baby kangaroo. They give you food to feed the outer door animals So that was really fun as well. The lion jeep encounter they post about online is not even a thing anymore. The glass behind the jeep is so dirty and thick with slime there's no way you'd even see a lion behind it. Everyone there was super nice and you can tell they love those animals! I would definitely recommend staying once for the experience!

This place is awesome and bigger than I thought it would be. The staff are all super friendly. You can feed and hold some animals, if you're in the area, stop and check this place out. It also has the unique Air BnB right above the lions and bear.

Large cats, lemurs, monkeys, birds, snakes,lizards,deer,chickens....beautiful animals. No gift shop or vending. Misleading advertising. Did not stay at lodging quarter's. All in all, nice variety of animals.

My family stayed in treehouse #2, our 4 year old absolutely loved it!! The animals were out and about due to the weather cooling off in the evening so I highly recommend evenings or overcast days. We could hear one of the lions from about 7:00pm to 7:30 am! So cool! We enjoyed the tiger feeding the most during the Mega tour and getting to hold and pet all the animals during the VIP aspect of it! Don’t miss out on the new axe throwing area, it is great for couples as well as safe for families of all ages! We will be back!!

This was wonderful! We were looking for something fun on each leg of our drive from California to the east coast. This looked interesting and it is a real gem. The place has so much to see, and the animals were really interesting in us. They came right up to the fence, and I felt that this was really engaging. The kangaroos came right up to us, even with the babies! Tigers, lions, monkeys, lemurs, reptiles and more. If you have the opportunity to check this out, I think you’ll be impressed.

We came as chaperones for our son’s school field trip and had a blast! Wide space for kids to run off energy but also many animals to enjoy watching and several areas to relax and eat. We will be back with family and friends .

This place has changed so much. We did the VIP because we happened to walk in 2minutes before it started and got to hold about 10 different animals including a baby kangaroo. Then we were given food to feed deer and monkeys. It was chilly outside but the animals were out and lively. The bathrooms were nice and I loved how healthy the animals looked. Not like arbuckle wilderness. You can tell they are loved and well cared for. They aren’t scared of people at all. It’s safe and fun. The snack places are closed since it’s the off season but I’m hoping to go back and try their treehouse overnight stay in may.

My family and I attend the safari March 9th. We had an amazing time. I was able to hold a baby kangaroo as much as I wanted. I really enjoyed being able to hold several animals. The staff were GREAT. They were super friendly and kind. I will definitely visit again to stay in a cabin.

I had so much fun at Riverwind tonight! The first machine I put $20 into I hit for $150. My fiancé decided to try the machine next to me and he hit for around $140. Then after spending another $60 I hit for another $120 and my fiance hit for another $153! All in all we had a lot of fun. They have a huge selection of slots to choose from, and although the tables were pretty full we could have found one or two to play at should we have wanted to do that. I also liked how there was at least 1 place still open to eat at when we were done at around 130am ( Burger King). There are a lot of restrooms all around so you don't have to look far when ya gotta go. The ONLY thing I didn't like is that we had such a hard time trying to find even ONE cashier so we could get our change that we ended up just leaving it behind after a good 10 minutes of walking around and looking. But Other than that we had A-blast. We were also able to park pretty close to the entrance so all in all I would say this casino should be a definite go to if you are in the mood to play. Two thumbs up from me!

Nice enough spot. Enjoy crab legs at seafood buffet but last seafood buffet there was no shrimp the last hour they were open. Great entertainment spot. Free coffee and soft drinks at multiple locations while you play. Clean facilities. Decent payouts. Crazy smoky inside, however, thats what makes it tough to endure for too long. Customer service reps call often to let you know about offers you have “earned”…

That fact we were able to reserve my favorite room and it was available when we arrived was awesome. However she did inform us she could not promise us the room. New TV and some other things we notice from our last visit were fixed a+ Just wish they would decide putting in the microwave. Chips and Alyse is partly the reason they're not getting five stars and the coffee seems to be weak this go around. I will be back though.

I did the all you can eat buffet on Saturday, which includes snow crab legs. Everything was delicious I got there around 6pm it was about a hour wait, but it was worth it. I mainly ate crab legs, the fried shrimp was good as well as the catfish. I saved a little room for desert, which I chose the bread pudding with carmel and vanilla sauce, but they had alot of options for $45. I will definitely be back 😁. If you get the Riverwind card you save $6

Love going to Riverwind when I visit family. It's like a mini Winstar and has a lot of good games available. I'm usually able to walk away even, or even up, even after playing for a while. Even when I don't, it's still a good time. They also give out free play often and free meals, and even sent us a voucher for a free cruise. We thought there was a catch, but nope, we're booked for our cruise in August for free!

We stopped to eat since we were on the highway driving to spend time with the kids. It was on Christmas Day, so it was the only place to really have a meal other than burgers or hotdogs from gas stations m. The buffet was excellent!

We came here on a Saturday evening to grab some crab legs and spend some money. The line to the buffet was incredibly long. We waited 2+ hours in line, and we had to give up near the end, because it was near closing time. The Riverwind Casino Wild Card holder has a benefit of being placed close to the front of the line, so it pushed regular people back a lot. The place was filled with smoke, and I ended up leaving the place with my clothing reeks of cigarettes, and it ended up contaminating my car too. The place needs better air ventilation and filtration to deal with those smell.One major kudos for this place is that their parking lot was well lit and organized. I felt safe walking and talking with my friend in the parking lot. It was also to find my party, because the parking was well labeled.

Went there with a group of friends last night. They are doing some remodeling but it doesn't appear to be affecting peoples fun. People seemed to be having a great time. They have a large selection of slot games. There are ATM's and bathrooms, a bar area in the center, a smoking area with card tables, roulette (table & electronic), and slots as well as a non-smoking play area. This was only my 3rd time in a Casino but it seemed great to me. There were employees constantly cleaning, waitresses walking by about every 15-20 minutes checking on people, and techs checking machines. The customer service lady was friendly, efficient, and professional all in one which was perfect! I would visit again.

Riverwind Casino offers ample winning opportunities, although the lack of a non-smoking section might be a concern for some. My experience included both victories and losses. The casino itself exudes an aged ambiance, yet hints at ongoing renovation efforts. However, the extent of modernization remains questionable. On-site dining options are available, albeit slightly pricier than typical establishments. Complimentary beverages like water and soda are offered near the entrance upon request.

Super expensive unless you only want crab.It was the worst buffet I've ever experienced.They have a line undeserving long. That's probably why they don't care about ...anything there was weird prome rib that seemed like precooked boil in the bag meat. The pork was dryer than dry looking shreds. No chicken at all and soggy fish and chips. There were very few sides and a lame salad bar. And to finish it a lame desert bar. At least it was above pig slop. For $39.99 it was a waste of money for me And for a casino...shame on your greedy penny pinching managment.

In the oasis room there really is no smoke smell it was nice. We’d never been to a casino before but it was a good experience and the cashier was really helpful since we were such newbies. Big food court and lots and lots of slots

This review is for the Showplace Theater only. We love going to see concerts here. The intimacy you have here with the artists is amazing, and the sound is spot on. We have seen several shows here and have not been disappointed. The prices at the bar are very reasonable too. I just wish they could find a way to book more talent.

I like the layout of this casino. They have several restaurants and a few have gf options. There is also a smoke free area which is awesome. I wish they would have some more rock concerts this year for the beats and bites concerts. They seem to have all country music this year. I went last year and really enjoyed it being outside and the weather was great!

I would leave a 10 star if i could. I drive a truck for a living. The truck parking that is provided is a great service to us truckers! Free, lighted, and secure. They ask for nothing in return. I live in Norman and have spent some money at the casino, but that is never a question, if you need to park, you park! But when I parked today they gave me laminated sheet that said occupied on one side. Security guard told me that if I was going to be staying in my truck over night to place the occupied sign out so if severe weather came they would get me out of the truck and get me to shelter! What a blessing! Nice to be showed some care! Thank you Riverwind!

We just want to thank Riverwind casino for the hospitality and the great energy that was experienced Monday my future wife and I was able to experience a magical day we thank you.My soul mate and I love coming to river wind to release, the energy, games , and vibes are priceless and we love winning!!

Really did not spend much time in Casino on this cold and wet day. Grounds leading into side entrance was littered with trash. A Landscaping brick unglued. Receptionist at guest counter was helpful issuing a new card & verifying new address from Driver's license. All total played four different slots. The Wicked Wheel was fun & kept me in the game. Ate a steak sandwich from IHOP located in food court. Steak might have been lean beef but appeared to be ground hamburger meat. Riverwind is a nice place to go for entertainment and fun.

Fun and entertaining had a good time with friends. Had a great dinner at Chips 'N Ales ate battered fish & shrimp with chips and salad plan on taking extra to suite. Service was excellent!

Went to the showcase theater. Had to ask directions numerous times. More signage would be helpful especially outside. Staff were super friendly helpful. Wish casinos could be smoke free but ventilation was the best.

Machines were extremely tight however I'm giving it 5 stars because of the semi parking lot. It's great you have a secure spot to park, shuttle to casino, and an emergency weather response plan for drivers. Security guards were awesome . Thank you for thinking of the drivers coming through your area!

I did not visit the casino floor or game. I attended Jo Koy stand up. He was funny. However the venue was essentially a ballroom with chairs set up as a theater. It seemed to be old fashion. The good news is that the venue is small enough to have a decent seat even if you end up in section 201 and above. One thing I disliked was the bar closing just before the main show started. That really sucks bcz I was parched the entire show. 😕 Next time I know to sneak water in. Lol.

Small local casino with an equally small hotel attached, in a cornfield next to a highway.Typical casino, nothing special or horrible about it. You give them money and you leave. Small food court with major fast food chains, and one sit-down restaurant with decent and GENEROUS portions. The buffet is only open for limited days of the week, so I didn't try it.The hotel side is also your normal hotel. They offer coffee and juice in the lobby, but that is about it besides a vending machine or two. They do not have a pool, or fitness center, but the business center has a PC and printer.Parking is ample and the service was average. The room was nice with a small refrigerator, coffee maker, and TV. The view is either the cornfield or Mcdonald's and marshy area in the distance.Now cleanliness is another thing. The refrigerator was visibly dirty, and the bottom two shelves were sticky to the point that I just left my items there when I left.The shower curtain didn't reach the tub, so water soaked the floor every time I used it. The shower drain was "stuck", but with a little effort it, along with a ton of hair came right up!

I've been to riverwind a few times now. They have ample parking. It's a great outdoor venue for concerts and apparently they have plenty of parking for RV space behind the building. Have not been to the casino yet but I'm sure it is very nice inside the venue. Staff are knowledgeable and nice when it comes to the concerts.

Best casino I have been to in New Mexico/Oklahoma/Arizona . You can drink on the floor. Plenty of gaming area. Slots keep you playing for a while. Didn’t take your money like other casinos.

This place always has new machines and constantly updating. Friday all you can eat steak is wonderful..steak is tender and juicy…

The guide that we had as well as the horses, cats, and dogs were all absolutely wonderful. We paid about $50 for two people, which lasted about 30 minutes on a guided tour. I originally was mistaken on the pricing and received a phone call from Tabitha, who was trying to make things right from a customer service perspective. I appreciate any business that's willing to reach out, because many of us that go out to places don't always know what our reviews going to be until hours after we've settled in at home from an experience. So to receive a phone call the same day I placed a review was nice and showed me how much care and consideration these individuals put into working here. I did share some feedback with her to let her know that for new folks in the area some clear instructions on where to go to start the guided tour would be helpful, and she handled that constructive criticism professionally. I appreciate that. I would definitely recommend any family check this location out, as well as any individuals or couples for that matter. Thank you and God bless.

If you're in the area go stop by here and you can see the beautiful horses and if you make an appointment tour you can learn history about the horse reams, feed them and more. It's a really cool spot to check out.

These horses are so beautiful... and huge! It's nice to be able to see them up close. Some are more "social" and come up to see you. Those big brown eyes, so beautiful. I just loved them. The barn is super clean, and even with horses, cats & dogs - my allergies weren't affected. There is an event space upstairs & a small gift shop in the barn as well. Definitely worth checking out.

Thoroughly enjoyed this experience. The horses are gorgeous and seem well cared for. We reserved our time in advance on their website. We were there for about an hour. Don't forget your camera.

Our band played for the Rockheads USA conference dinner. Catering by Abbey Road. Nice, unique venue. Good folks to work with.

Our group really enjoyed our tour. The tour guide did a great job answering all our questions about Clydesdales. The kids had fun petting the horses and haven’t stopped talking about going back.

I really enjoyed it. My wife paid for a private tour. The lady giving the tour, did an excellent job, all while carrying a small baby on a chest harness. This was well worth the money and two thumbs up.

New to Oklahoma are so really enjoyed seeing and learning about the ranches here in Yukon. Called for appointment, self guided for us.

I had no idea their hooves were so big. They're like the Redwoods of horses. Super cool it's open to the public for free. They are majestic animals.

I enjoyed seeing the horses, but the website made it seem as if we would be getting a guided tour. Instead it was a self-led tour where you could just walk around and pet the horses. So that was a little disappointing. I thought there would be more information about who they were, what they did, etc.

We had a fantastic time at Express Ranch Clydesdales during our visit over the fall break. Although we encountered a minor issue, the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us and make it right. We look forward to returning in the future to interact with and observe these gentle and endearing giants. It was an unforgettable experience for my littles!

We had a great time! The grandkids met other kids their age who all enjoyed the horses so much. There were dogs and cats there too for plenty of pet therapy.

We had an amazing time and the guided tour was well worth it! The guide was very knowledgeable and so sweet to the kids with us. It was a very hot day but didn't feel too warm in the barn and shade!

Fantastic experience where you get to interact with the horses in the barn and outside on the ranch. The facility is clean and the staffs are friendly. Note that they are busy during the holiday season and many of them are out for parades. Additionally, it’s a nice drive to the barn with beautiful, open landscape.

Great for the whole family. We had a large group and so paid to have a guide. She was great. Very knowledgeable and went into a lot of detail about raising the horses and the different kinds of horses. The facilities were very clean.

Such fun to visit horses. Grandson loved the horses and the mechanical things to ride too. A drink stand and tables would make it perfect.Nice bathrooms too.

If you find yourself in the Yukon Oklahoma... The express ranch is something to see.... We were able to visit the Clydesdale Barn see and meet some of the horses... It was also bath day which was quite an event... We got to visit the barn and walk through the paddocks to meet some of the other... The staff is open to questions I'm very informative about their giant co-workers.... These horses travel all over the country. And as usual with some of the bigger more interesting places in our state... They have quite the gift shop.

I just want to thank the museum for allowing the CacheFest 2024 team to have their Night at the Noble geocaching event here. Their “night at the museum” set up was an absolutely hilarious event and an awesome time was had by everyone. My kids explored the exhibits and truly enjoyed themselves. The museum staff was so kind and generous of their time as well. Thank you so much!

We drove down from Tulsa to visit with our 3 1/2 year old because he’s very into dinos right now. The museum itself is very nice and clean. Tons to look at but even more to read. If you’re a reader this is a great museum for you. There is a kids discovery room that was very hands-on and interactive - great for the kids to take a break and play. The gift shop is wonderful too, they even have some $1.50 dinosaurs & bugs which was a nice surprise as usually museum gift shops can be expensive. All in all it was a great museum & I wish I’d had more time to explore and read but my 3 year old was ready to move on pretty quickly so I think we will wait & try to visit again when he’s a little older. If we were local we would visit more often!

Amazing experience here with my children. Every exhibit fascinated my young kids and you could truly see their little brains absorbing all of the information. There is some thing here for every age and level of education and I’m really thankful that we visited. The staff , However, made our experience an absolute five-star experience. The people at the front desk were so welcoming and helpful, but the lady in the gift shop likely left us with such a great impression of the museum. She was so helpful in finding my children the stickers that they wanted, and going to look for shirt sizes for our youngest because he loved the design. I’ve never seen someone go above and beyond to make my family and my children feel like they were so special for just wanting to buy a T-shirt. Thank you for not only pouring into educating the community, spending so much time putting together these exhibits, but also hiring such great people to be the face of this amazing museum.

There was hardly anyone there and it’s a holiday weekend. My kids enjoyed the discovery center. There were family restrooms with baby changing stations which made diaper changes easy. Very spacious and lots of exhibits with interactive stations for toddlers and older children. They offer veteran and active duty discounts for admission. 3 and under were free.

Dinosaurs once walked through Oklahoma’s landscape and we can experience and explore the impact they had on our planet. Explore more about dinosaurs and how they evolved and lived by visiting Sam Noble Oklahoma museum of natural history. Interactive learning!

The paleontology and Indigenous People exhibits are excellent. The modern natural history section leaves a bit to be desired. A fun way to spend an afternoon.

What a fantastic experience! Loved the interactive aspects of the Museum and have been telling people this is a Must See!!!

Really enjoyed visiting the museum with my granddaughter who regaled us with all her 5 year old knowledge of dinosaurs (and she knows everything). There is way too much to see and do in one visit so we are considering getting a membership so she can return as often as she wants. And she will have to take her Pop-Pop with her.

It has lots of different sections there's an art section and a bunch of animal in nature sections there's also a store section where you can buy a bunch of different Little Things a gift shop. There's also a cave on Story 2 that you can go inside of it tells you about stalactites and stalagmites and a whole bunch of other things inside of case hanging from the top of the caves on the first floor there's a giant man with a statue of a man holding a spear that's pretending to be about to kill Mammoth.

Extremely clean museum with a lot of immersive experiences for young audiences and great picture layouts for groups or regular attendees!They have a lot of themed areas that touch on dinosaurs, nature, Greek/Roman artifacts, Midwest, and Native American exhibit (upstairs/2nd floor).

This was a lot of fun, and the best part was meeting Nance, who, after telling her it was our first time visiting, gave us a tour in the bone section. She had personally been on several digs herself along with years at some of the best museums. She was knowledgeable and funny and made the experience that much more fun.Besides that, the rest of the museum was awesome and educational, and we had an excellent time. Can't wait to go back with the kids.

Talk about a hidden gem! I’ve lived in OKC for 16 years and even went to OU and just found out about this. My buddy and I are dinosaur buffs so we went to check it out today. And it’s free for veterans, so that was a plus. Highly recommend!

I recently got hired to draw caricatures at this place... I love the energy there... It was easy to do my job... Because of the great staff and the good feelings I experienced while I was there.... There are so many great spectacles to view. I was also very impressed with how everything looked...This place makes the museum experience very exciting... I was drawing in front marble dinosaur that had to be about 20 feet tall.... That was awesome... I felt like a kid all over again while I was doing my grown up passion....It was an overall great experience for me....

We had an absolute blast my daughter has been wanting to see dinosaur bones and this was only an hour and a half from our house. Spent a good 3 hours looking at everything and just enjoying ourselves. Large Variety in their gift shop also. Great place to visit for adults and kids.

This is one of, if not the best, Natural History Museum I have ever had the pleasure of visiting in my life. Clean, educational, entertaining, and beautiful, just stunning. Never crowded! Has a simple, but fun gift shop as well! Thumbs up all around! Norman/OKC is definitely one of the best places to visit for attractions similar to this.

A great museum to enjoy some dinosaur bones, cool artifacts, and walk around for an hour or two. Wasn't too crowded for a Sunday visit. Paid about $13 for each person, no discounts. Plenty of parking, small walk to the entrance. Saw some fun things in the gift shop. Always love seeing the statues.Had an interesting limited time exhibit for kiddos there as well!

Displays were very informative and awe inspiring. The gift shop is priced at about eight times an items worth, disappointed in that.

Fantastic to have this nearby. Fascinating information about prehistoric Oklahoma. Give yourself plenty of time to read and learn.

A very nice look into the wildlife and First People of the local area. had very clever and informative displays and the 'Dinovator' was very well executed. unfortunately couldn't stay as long as I'd have liked because the entire main hall reeked of gasoline, which permeated into the exhibit areas (though thankfully not the front entrance).

Well worth the admission fee, easily spent almost 3 hours in here looking through every exhibit. We especially appreciate the dinosaurs but the advantage they took in creating these spaces is amazing.

I experienced an intimate group tour, and it was wonderful. The people who prepare the field work so hard. Security was tight, but we were treated quite well.

I recently attended the 212 Foundation’s Ladies Clinic. It was the most extraordinary Sooner experience ever! I'm incredibly proud to be a Sooner Alumni and donate to a cause that aligns with the values of building a community and family! Not only does the Sooner Football program show up on the field, but I'm pleased to learn that their mission work extends both at home in the community and abroad or during disaster relief. Women’s health is a priority for me because I had not one but several of the leading diagnoses related to women's health problems, such as a ruptured brain aneurysm, heart attacks, tumors in female organs, and the list goes on. For an organization primarily made up of men, I am grateful for their understanding and compassion toward women and the struggles we endure! Coach V and staff have done so in the past few years to continue to pour into the heart and soul of the Sooner Nation. Thank you, and the stadium looks fantastic, especially the new graffiti wall!

BEST Place to see a football game Hands Down. Or actually, HORNS DOWN!!!! Come early and do some tailgating or check out some the many awesome restaurants and bars on Campus Corner. You will have a great time hanging with friends, family and other Sooner fans. BOOMER!

First time at this stadium it was such a great time loads of fun! Very very packed the parking is insane we had to park like 9 blocks from the stadium and walk the whole way. Not complaining but still the parking is completely far fetched lol. Usually lots of walking involved!OU actually won that game and if you are in the area or thinking of going I definitely recommend just dress accordingly and bring your walking shoes!

We had an incredible experience from before the game all the way until after!We arrived early for some tailgating. The atmosphere was so much fun as everyone was getting ready to enjoy the game. We walked around the stadium and saw lots of neat statues and areas. Our kids got to take photos with the mascots that were walking around our area. The best part was watching the Pride of Oklahoma marching band playing to get everyone ready.The sun was hot but the Sooners were hotter! The announcer did a great job of keeping everyone engaged and participating in helping the team win. We enjoyed watching the fireworks and Sooner Schooner celebrate after many of the touchdowns.The food selection was reasonable and the prices were as expected. We really appreciated the water stations providing free water. We had clear plastic bottles with us to refill. And we did many times to stay hydrated.It’s important to note that you can only bring clear bags of a certain size and no food or drinks into the stadium.Leaving the stadium is normally busy with the rush of people walking out unless you have a good path to take. There are options to park further away and take shuttles to and from the game for less effort spent dealing with navigating traffic.We love the Sooners and hope to go to many more games!

I had an amazing time doing the Race to the SEC which brought me down to the field for a finish. What an amazing looking facility when standing on the field.I really wish more races ended like this one with the festival and fireworks!I would definitely do this again!!!

Smooth traffic during football day, easy in and out. Several gates to the stadium. Nice boy Scout guided seat directions. When we leave the stadium, cleaning crew lines up outside the stadium. Definitely Will visit again.

The best stadium in the country!The fans make it so special.We are ticket holders and we are proud to support the University of Oklahoma.Great food, fun atmosphere, and beautiful stadium

We had some time on a Sunday afternoon and decided to check out the campus. We saw the OU football stadium and fell in love. It is such a beautiful campus & stadium with plenty of memorabilia to walk around and view. We visited Heisman Row and took pictures with some of OU's greats like the Selmons, Bradford, White, Mayfield, Owens, & Murray. Highly recommend!

Great experience, great atmosphere lots of good seats tailgating all around the only drawback is the parking. But there is a lot of shuttle service

First ever visit to the Palace on the Prairie. Have to say this place has the most electric atmosphere of any NCAA Div I football stadiums. We had a blast and enjoyed the game. Fans are very passionate but yet friendly towards others.No issues getting in, security keeps the crowds moving. Recommend getting to the area two hours prior to kickoff to get parking, walk to the stadium and find your seats. Plus that gives you enough time to get food/drinks. The bleachers seats are wide enough, clearly labeled. Only complaint is that the rows are narrow but that's like most college football stadiums.Concession prices are comparable to any top tier NCAA football team or professional football.Highly recommend attending a game here. It's a great experience.

I had a great experience at the UCF vs Oklahoma game. It was a fun experience, the Sooners fans were super hospitable and I truly enjoyed going to this travel game. I was also proud as UCF traveled well to this game. #goknights #chargeon

Great experience. The stadium is a mix of old and new construction. Even the newer construction was older and needed renovations. But enjoy all college stadiums and their unique features that set them apart from others.

Always love bringing family to the field it totally makes us feel like OU family, and that's exactly what we needed. The experience on the beautiful campus is a honor to be there. Telling friends and family about it, is like we just sighted Bigfoot!!! And once in a life time for a true Oklahoma Sooners fan my timing was perfect walking in the gate and taking a pic with the all time legend Berry Switzer wow!!! Unbelievable 2024 Spring game I'll never forget Boomer Sooner baby 🏈

Always a pleasure. Been here a few times. Staff are always friendly and attentive. Restrooms are always stocked and clean. A great place to visit!

Stopped at OU to see the stadium of one of my favorite college teams as we did a southern US road trip. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to go inside the gates to see the field area, but enjoyed seeing the Heisman statues and statues of Switzerland and Stoops.If anyone from OU reads this, I would suggest having tours of the stadium like LSU does of its stadium.

The most beautiful place in the world! Great atmosphere, wonderful food and staff! We absolutely love it here!

Just... FANTASTIC! Being from an area where we only have NHL I didn't really care to go to an OU game, especially for the money it costs. I had an opportunity to go to the stadium off season and it was breathtaking! I tried to imagine the hustle and sounds and energy of the full stadium. Just a great atmosphere and OK is so fortunate to have their gorgeous stadium on the OU campus

Great football experience and fun environment. If your backside doesn't like bleachers, bring a bleacher cusion or something small to sit on. I suggest small as you're packed in like sardines (at least in our section) on bleachers. Was fun, just a tight fit!Quick note for first timers, learn from our mistake as first timers -- look at your football ticket to find the Gate # to enter. The gate # is not a suggestion, it's almost imperative that you use that gate if you don't want it to take 30-minutes to figure out how to get to your seat. We entered at the complete opposite side of the stadium and it was a hilarious debacle trying to figure out how to get to our seats.

The best college football team, hands down, horns down. Best experience I have ever had at a college football game. The atmosphere was incredible.

It's always a fantastic atmosphere on Saturdays at the Palace on the Prarie. If you have the opportunity to come to game in Norman do yourself a favor and do it.Over the years the upgrades to the stands, scoreboard, and concessions have made the experience even better.Parking sucks but it's to be expected and the concessions are stupidly overpriced but you are coming to a sporting event so you can't complain.

To the guard on duty late 8.6.22, thank you for making us feel welcome and safe when we happened upon the memorial at 1030pm. We are from Texas and in town for just tonight. We drove by and got out to take a picture of the fence of tributes. You invited us into the memorial grounds and gave us wonderful information that made our visit more meaningful. My 8 yo daughter was completely captivated by the memorial and wanted to read every name on every chair and read into whom the victims might have been and their relations to each other.This was an experience we will never forget. We will keep all of the victims and loved ones in our prayers always.

If you’re in Oklahoma City than you need to come to the memorial. This memorial does an incredible job of honoring the victims of the attack and the heroic first responders. Definitely prepare yourself mentally because it is quite a bit to take in at once if you’re not expecting it. I spent about three hours in total at the museum so give yourself enough time to see everything. The presentations and recorded interviews are absolutely incredible and are extremely informative and captivating. There’s a big section on the arrest and prosecution of Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols which I easily could have spent more time looking at. Everything is so well put together and all the staff are extremely informative and will answer any questions you have. 10/10!

A beautiful memorial in the heart of Oklahoma City. This memorial plays an amazing role in keeping the memories of those lost, as well as those affected by the events, alive. It is so well thought out. Walk outside the memorial to find the chain link fence and spend some time reading notes to lost loved ones. Pay attention to the black painted brick on the museum which shows where windows were blown out and fresh brick in the building. These unique features all add to the magnitude of the true memorial area. I would say parking was ample, but for whatever reason...hard to find (more so know the cost and if it was public parking or not). Don't get me wrong, there is PLENTY of parking in the area. We did not tour the museum, but I wish we would've. We did enter the museum to see the gift shop and use the restroom. I'd rank this as a "must see" memorial.

We visited the memorial early on a Saturday morning, just after sunrise. It was completely still, with no one else there except the security guard doing his rounds. Only the slight sound of the water flowing off the edges of the reflecting pool broke the silence. Everything about the memorial is beautiful and tastefully done; it is a fitting tribute to those who lost their lives that morning at 9:02 and others who were affected by the tragedy. Definitely worth visiting, even without touring the museum.

Everybody goes during the day and it's absolutely beautiful during the day. I have also been in the daytime and love it I go to the marathon and compete. I happen to be in downtown and wanted to see it at night. There is a security guard so you don't feel unsafe. He was a very nice man. To see this place at night with the chairs lit was a whole nother experience unto itself. It was so quiet and peaceful you could just hear the reflection pulled trickling. The remembrance wall with the saying in the times are lit. It was a good time to just go and not have a lot of people. Where you could reflect pray for those people and their family look at the memory wall and just have your moment.

June 6, 2017: I arrived about 1:00pm. No car or foot traffic at all. I was overwhelmed with the monument. I remember the day the bombing occurred, seeing half of the building gone. Being here gave me a different perspective especially reading the names of those who perished and seeing the remains of the bldg. The artist(s) who created this monument did a magnificent tribute. All the chairs, small and large, the reflecting pool, the remaining tree. It was breathtaking; it was peaceful. A must stop anytime you are even close. Pictures do not do it justice.

So beautiful! Love the survivor tree. Videos and pictures throughout the site. If you want to go through the museum you can but there is a charge for that. If you want to see just the area of the bombing, it is free. Make sure you see the statue of Jesus across the street also.

This museum was amazing and they do a great job of telling the story of the day of and the days following.While the museum was extremely informative, the real star was the memorial itself. This was probably the most beautiful memorial I have been to in the U.S. Both the simplicity and complexity behind the meaning of it all is incredibly moving.I don't want to write a novel about all the symbology, but definitely pick up a brochure and read for yourself!

My wife and I are taking a cross country road trip and spent an evening in Oklahoma City. While in town, we visited the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum. The museum is well done with many exhibits that teach about the horrible event, the people whose lives were taken, and the response of the people of Oklahoma City. While it is difficult to relive these sorrowful events, it is also good to be reminded that these events do not define nor destroy us.There was a school group that was going through the museum at the time we visited. Truthfully, some of them didn't "get it" and were rather cavalier in their attitude. But some did understand the significance, and even for those who did not, it is good that the seeds of understanding are planted. Perhaps someday they may fully recognize the solemn day for what it was.Following our visit to the museum, we went outside to see the memorial. Where the building once stood, a beautiful pool of reflection now exists, bordered by two large walls with times 9:01 and 9:03 inscribed. Those times represent the moments before and after the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Building. A field of empty chairs sit adjacent to the pool, representing those who were killed in the bombing. The memorial is a beautiful but somber reminder of the tragic day, but also of the strength and determination of the human spirit.

They do a great job with this difficult situation. The museum does a great job of showing the events from the time before the bomb all the way to the execution. It also tells the story of the heroes, survivors and victims. It was great to hear the stories but it is an emotional journey.

There is parking in the Memorial Parking Garage. Don't forget to validate your parking ticket at the counter so that parking is free. The museum is structured chronologically. Starting a few minutes before the attack until the erection of the memorial site. This memorial is already exceptional during the day. If you can, visit after sunset when the chairs and gates are illuminated.

AMAZING! They did an amazing job with this memorial.Extremely touching and informative. It puts you in that moment on that terrible day. You feel the chaos, the fear, the pain, hurt, every emotion runs through you aside from happiness. Walking through the memorial garden and the room with all the pictures literally takes your breath away it's so painful seeing everything. They do an amazing job and I will be back. Be prepared to cry because you will. Be prepared to be angry because you will. Be prepared to be touched because you definitely will.

Incredibly detailed account on that very tragic and unforgettable day in April 1995. I remember listening to the radio while serving in the U.S. Marine Corps in Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, on this fateful day. The visit to the memorial brought back so many memories. It goes beyond comprehension how much evil McVeigh and Nichols had to plan for the extermination of potentially far more than the 168 lives they took. Thank you to the precious staff of the memorial for doing such a blessed job at being so compassionate and empathetic to all those families that lost loved ones so prematurely not so many years ago.

Visiting the memorial is a visceral experience. We decided to buy museum tickets at 4:15, thinking it would be plenty of time to finish by 6 PM close. We were quite rushed toward the end. The video footage, interviews with survivors, and items on display that were collected both as evidence and as momentos from survivors and rescuers are incredible. Plan to spend another 30-60 minutes outside, walking around the reflecting pool and contemplating Survivor Tree. We also made the decision to return after dark to view the memorial lit up at night. It is serene and even more beautiful. Very safe to walk around, as well. Highly recommend.

The memorial was beautiful and the park rangers Dan and Cody were very helpful. I loved that the reflection pond was moving and made noise. I was not impressed with the museum though. The museum is "affiliated" with the National Parks Service but they don't take the NPS Annual Pass. The museum was very claustrophobic and there was no easy way to bail. I was locked in the "recording room" where they played a tape where the bomb exploded but then lights flashed and there was no warning and no way to get out. The rangers were great though so because this listing combines the memorial and the museum this is more about the museum.

They did a wonderful job on this memorial and museum. Lots of artifacts and videos throughout the 2 floors of the museum. People working there are very friendly. All throughout it is Handicapped accessible. Beautiful water Area with trees and grass for the Monument. See pics

The Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum is a very powerful and well done monument to the Oklahoma City Federal Building bombing on April 19th, 1995.In my opinion it is best to start in the museum, which features several videos, displays, witness testimonials, and even items and parts of the building that survived the explosion. I found the saddest part was the Gallery of Honor, which features photos of the victims with items that their families donated that speak to who they are as real people.The outdoor memorial makes more sense after you've toured the museum because it puts the memorial into context. It is very beautiful but sad.The staff are all very nice and helpful, both in the museum and at the memorial.

Very emotional. The museum is very graphic and it depicted the scenes very well. I was emotionally sick to my stomach reading everything and seeing so many lives cut short and families depleted. It is amazing how much the community and country rallied together to rebuild. The memorial outside waa peaceful and serene.

I had a friend who used to work in the building and was transferred out shortly before the attack happened. I always wanted to visit and finally got around to it this weekend. Definitely worth a stop if you are in the area. Helpful hint: Visit on a Sunday and you can park in the post office lot right next to the site :)

Visited here for the first time this week. It was very nicely done. They did a great job making it a peaceful setting. The chairs are overwhelming because of how it represents so much loss of life over such a senseless act. If anyone didn’t know about this event I would recommend they visit to see what happened. It was sad and so tragic looking at everything.

The OKC National Memorial is so very moving and sobering. The field of chairs, each baring the name of a person who perished that infamous day, induces so many tears, especially when taking into account the small chairs representing innocent children who should have been safe in their daycare setting. The Memorial was very well planned out and built.

This was a beautiful memorial to honor the 168 people who were taken too soon from their family and friends.It is a lovely tribute that encompasses so much from the impact of what happened on that horrible day.Highly recommend a visit if you are ever in the area. It's amazing during the day but a whole different experience at night when everything is lit up. If possible, visit at both times.

Still remember it like it was yesterday, as a senior in HS about to graduate. So sad and powerful to see the chairs, which represent approximately where the victims were in the building. Seeing all the small chairs of children that were in the daycare is heartbreaking. A well-done memorial that is ranger-patrolled for any questions or discussion about the event and venue.

Such a powerful experience! The memorial gives a wonderful tribute to the lives lost that tragic day and also paying tribute to good of humanity to came to help. The memorial grounds were a perfect place to sit and contemplate. The museum took you through all the events of the day where you could spend hours learning every detail of the event. Learning the victim and survivor stories was really powerful! If you’re traveling through OKC, visiting here is a must!

Today was my first experience at the OKCMM and it had to have been the most moving and powerful experience I've had at a museum. I arrived before they opened and used the time to walk around the site soaking in every piece of tribute and honor. The experience begins as any ordinary day, only to be met with explosions as the next door opens showing the destruction and recovery efforts. The heartstrings are in constant motion reading every piece of information and seeing the pictures as if you were on scene for the events.A couple times I had to move to a corner and breathe as emotions were in constant engagement. While there are exhibits detailing the men behind the attacks, this experience is truly focused on those who died and those who risked their lives in the recovery effort. The love and unity of Oklahoma, United States, and world truly shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it.I highly recommend visiting this museum and to take your time going through the museum and grounds. This was my first time in OKC and I've experienced great museums and experiences, but this truly is a beacon of light and hope in the midst of tragedy. I will absolutely visit again anytime I am in the area.

The designated parking garage is extremely small and hard to park, but other than that. This place is well laid out and done very well. The staff is all friendly and knowledgeable. If you're near here, stop and check it out. It is worth the stop at no matter age you are.

What a beautiful Memorial. We only walked the outdoor area and it was beautiful. The security guards were able to provide a lot of information about the meaning behind different areas of the memorial. I would have loved to have seen the museum but we just didn't have enough time before it's closing to justify the cost of the entry

This was gut wrenching, all those people, and children dead because of some person's personal hate. I walked away with a heavy heart. I mourn with the family's that lost loved ones.This country, and some of the people living here, might want to invest in some empathy. It was, for me, beyond my understanding, and tragically sad.

A beautiful museum that is a remarkable tribute to the victims of the bombing in Oklahoma City. It's a very thorough display of all that happened on that tragic day. The staff are kind and helpful. I highly recommend a visit.

I was privileged to be shown around by an exceptional park ranger, Dan McKee. He described the solace of the moments. The past, present and future of the site. The inspiration for the architecture and design of the memorial was breath taking. If you are in the area this is definitely worth a visit. The grounds themselves are amazing and Dan is a wealth of knowledge.

Oh my! A solemn remembrance of a horrible event in recent history of the U.S. The creators of this museum were thoughtful and thorough with their interpretation of April 19, 1995. From "an ordinary day" until the present day, there are interviews, artifacts (large and small), pictures - anything you can imagine that describes the day, the weeks of search and rescue/recovery, the years of waiting for justice, what all mankind can learn from it- it's all there.I especially liked how the outside memorial was planned; I believe it is an appropriate and meaningful way to remember those people who were killed.May this memorial and museum continue to be a source of healing and understanding of the experience.

OKC Memorial is a moving, informational, and impactful experience. I feel it is appropriate for all ages yet would be more appreciated by 10 and older ages. The thought and workmanship that has gone into the displays and kiosks is robust with much to see and absorb. My grandson who is 15 enjoyed and profited from our visit. Thank you to all who were involved in the design and build. Plan a visit and you won’t be disappointed. Free parking for visitors too. The grounds are gorgeous in any season of the year.

So glad we stopped here. It's a beautifully done memorial to all the victims of the Oklahoma bombing. Definitely a sombering experience but Park Ranger, Dan McKee was there to answer all our questions and explain some things to us that we were not aware of. Kudos to this excellent Park Ranger.

A moving memorial to those killed - to include context on the first responders. Very detailed information about how the terrorist was arrested and convicted.Highly recommended to visit - also there is an adjacent parking garage - get your parking validated for free parking, too.

My family started our OKC tourist day at the Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial, which was a pretty somber experience. The Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum was very well done, and really captured the anguish of that day in 1995.The museum had numerous artifacts recovered from the rubble, as well as a shocking volume of items related to the investigation and subsequent execution of Tim McVeigh. The guy planned and executed the whole thing (almost) using a fake name. At bottom, if he hadn't screwed up and used his real name to order Chinese food from a hotel where he'd registered with his fake name, he'd likely have never been caught as there would have been no link to a real person. Good thing he wasn't as smart as he thought.A particularly powerful part of the outdoor memorial was the empty seats - one large seat for every adult and one small seat for every child that died in the bombing. The number of small seats was heartbreaking. If you're ever in the area, this is a must see - just be prepared for an emotional experience.

Breathtaking experience. You can easily immerse yourself in this topic. Exhibits are not overwhelming and very well done and presented. You get to interact with the surroundings. The museum saved lots of actual items from the incident site.

A very moving and interesting place honoring those who lost their lives, and those forever changed on April 19, 1995. I remember when it happened - I was 9 - but there are so many other details to this day… such as the hearts of local Oklahomans who responded to the need for help and provided a surplus in a time of need.A powerful place of honor and memory.Highly recommend a visit.

Excellent tribute to the citizens of Oklahoma City bombing along with victims and survivors. Very well put together museum and many exhibits the outdoor memorial is beautiful and serene. The state park ranger, Dan was very informative and helpful. The museum and memorial was a beautiful tribute to the perseverance of the state. Price was very reasonable and has a gift shop. Ticket lady was very nice. A great visit for a self tour, very well laid out. Very nice and clean restrooms. Very accessible

What a surreal feeling walking where a building once stood. If you are ever in Oklahoma City, stop by the National Memorial that commemorates the victims of the bombing on April 19, 1995. It is a beautiful Memorial and tribute to the strength of our country under tough times.

This was amazing! It's a must see if you're in OKC and you have about 3 hrs to go through it. It was very emotional going through this memorial museum. There were some younger kids there with their parents that had a hard time going through it. You can't help but want to cry and yet be angry that it happened in the first place. Definitely worth the time and money. They do have a parking ramp to park in.

I was very impressed with the curation of this museum. Our experience started outside with the gates marking the entrance of the memorial, the beautiful reflecting water feature, the chairs commemorating those that died, and the survival oak tree. The museum itself was much better than I was anticipating and well worth the trip. The use of technology (like touch screens) was appropriate and informative. The artifacts that are used in this museum are very tastefully put together to tell the story of that day, from sound recordings, building pieces, personal items recovered. The news footage and exhibits were so moving. As a child I remembered this event covered on the news, but I did not remember the full extent of the devastation. I brought my 15 year old son with me to visit and we were both very impressed and moved by this museum and memorial. It is very well done.

The Oklahoma City National Memorial is a tribute to the victims, survivors, rescuers, and all who were affected by the Oklahoma City bombing on April 19, 1995. The bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building was a tragic event that resulted in the deaths of 168 people and injured hundreds more. The memorial is located on the site of the former federal building and serves as a place of remembrance, reflection, and education.Visiting the Oklahoma City National Memorial was a profoundly moving and impactful experience.The serene Reflecting Pool was the first thing I noticed. It's a long, shallow pool that stretches between two large gates, each marked with the time—one minute before and one minute after the bombing. The calmness of the water provided a stark contrast to the tragedy it commemorates, offering a space for reflection and contemplation.This area was especially poignant. Each of the 168 empty chairs represents a life lost in the bombing, arranged in rows to signify their location in the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. The smaller chairs for the children who died were particularly heartbreaking. Visiting this area during sunset, when the chairs are illuminated, added an even more powerful dimension to the experience.The Survivor Tree, an American elm that withstood the blast, stands as a symbol of resilience and hope. The plaques around the tree share messages of strength and recovery, making it a deeply inspirational part of the memorial.The Rescuers’ Orchard honors those who aided in rescue and recovery efforts, while the Children’s Area features a wall with hand-painted tiles from children across the country. This section was both uplifting and touching, illustrating the nationwide impact and support following the tragedy.The atmosphere of the Oklahoma City National Memorial is one of solemn remembrance, respect, and hope. It’s a place that encourages deep reflection and offers a space for healing.The memorial is well-maintained and accessible to all visitors, with ramps and smooth pathways ensuring that everyone can navigate the space comfortably. The staff and volunteers were knowledgeable and compassionate, ready to answer questions and provide additional context.Visiting the Oklahoma City National Memorial left a lasting impression on me. It’s a powerful reminder of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of tragedy and a testament to the importance of remembering and honoring those affected by such events.My visit was a deeply moving experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking to understand the profound impact of the Oklahoma City bombing and the strength of the community that emerged in its aftermath.(Note: We could not visit the museum inside, as it closed at 6 PM)

This is a beautiful and solemn memorial dedicated to the 168 people who lost their lives in the 1995 bombing. Words are not adequate to capture the emotions brought on here, only a walk through these halls can relay those. I can't imagine a better way to remember and honor the victims, rescuers, and city that came together after this tragic event

We stopped here because I remember seeing "End of the Trail" about 48 years ago as a kid. This powerful statue left me in awe & I wanted my wife & grandchild to see it as well.We went in at opening time of 10am. I was struck by the size & scope of the museum's displays. WOW!! There is truly something for everyone on display.The staff was out of this world. Full of knowledge & happy to be of help. If you tour with one of their guides you will not be disappointed.I plan on visiting again the next time we get to Oklahoma City.

It was an absolutely fantastic experience! We had "an hour to kill," ended up spending 2.5 hours at the museum, and needed at least another few hours to see everything.The displays and exhibitions are well thought out, descriptive, and looked after!We loved the museum and would definitely recommend a visit.

This was my first time visiting this museum. I was VERY impressed. There was a myriad of paintings, artifacts, displays of western gear, weapons, ropes, barbed wire and MANY bronze statues, including Remington's. I took over 400 photographs that I plan to make a slideshow with for my YouTube page. At 1:00 P.M. I went on a guided tour with a very knowledgeable docent that was very enjoyable. I highly recommend this museum.

If you appreciate the American West, you can easily spend the majority of the day here enjoying all that this magnificent museum has to show. With the various exhibits rotating through, there are always new things to experience. If you enjoy reading all the details, plan to spend several hours here.If you have kids with you - they have four treasure hunts going on and a few stations for kids to work through activities - average of 2-3 hours and the kids have seen it all and you have seen it at 1.5-2x the speed that you would have wanted to see it!!So, let me recommend for the adults without kids - go have a large brunch, then, leisurely walk through in six hours +/- (to read all the things) and enjoy some of the most beautiful and breathtaking pieces our collective history has to share. It is worth spending half the day here.Some of my favorites are in the photos of this review... The giant paintings have been a favorite of mine since I first saw them - and I am in absolute awe every time I walk into that room.

Wow! The outdoor reenactment is very well done. The cowboy gallery and rodeo exhibit were so fascinating. Love the different multimedia making learning and browsing so entertaining.Lots of interesting American Indian history that occupied all over US, not just local tribes.We rushed through in 2 hours but could easily spend another 2.

Absolutely amazing. There is such an astounding collection of art and historical artifacts, it will take the better part of a day to work your way through everything. I like how the exhibits are broken down into sections which make easier to take it all in. I especially enjoyed "the town". An entire indoor town is genius. I also enjoyed the movie memorabilia section. Very well done! This is probably one of the best museums I have ever been too. If you love cowboy culture and the old west, this place is a must!

We had such a fun time at this museum!! Free parking, no wait time, and only $15 admission; I definitely recommend setting aside an entire morning or afternoon if you want to get the whole experience. I think we spend about 3 hours walking around the art galleries. So much beautiful artwork and history to see and learn about- I loved how there were also exhibits outside (see pictures of the waterfall below.) The gift shop has a huge variety of souvenirs to choose from too!

I was pleasantly surprised how diverse this place is. I loved the 2023 Prix the West exhibit - so many folk artists had a chance to show their beautiful art. The building is beautiful, too, very spacious and interesting. Remember to see all the outside spaces, too. The gift store had a great choice of handmade items available. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Sooooo many amazing displays and rooms and info and knowledgeable docents! This museum is one of the best I’ve been too. It’s not just “dry” info. They have found a way to display and tell and show that brings this place to life. Spent 2 1/2 hours here and barely scratched the surface and only left because of another appointment! Loved this museum and will be back!!

This is a really informative and well organized museum. I was pleasantly surprised at how engaging the artwork, history, and sculptures were. It took 1-2 hours to cover the museum and I went on a "Bank of America Museums on Us" free weekend. I highly recommend visiting if you're in the Oklahoma City area!

I would highly recommend coming here! Very informative and very well put together. Whoever designed the gardens outside did a very beautiful job. This is the perfect place to spend your morning or afternoon. It was nice to learn about all the local history and the museum is very well maintained inside and outside which made the experience way more enjoyable. Friendly and informative staff. I would recommend this place to anyone! Probably one of my favorite museums I’ve ever been to!:)

Had a fun family day here. It was a 2 hour drive for us but it was worth it. I was really impressed with everything and was surprised at just how large this museum is. It wasn't crowded at all which is nice. I highly recommend checking this museum out.

What a great place to experience cowboy and western heritage. The completeness and thoroughness of this museum is astounding. I only spend a couple of hours and rushed through the various areas of the museum. Everything I saw was done exceptionally well. If you are in the area, this is a must see place. Don’t expect to see the whole place in one visit, there are just too many areas with so many details that it would too ambitious to see it all. I have a much better understanding and respect for cowboy life after my visit.

I highly recommend this. Great for the family. Kids loved it. If you’ve ever traveled abroad to learn culture and see ancient ruins, you’ll love learning about the culture right here.We were impressed with the Prix de West art collection. And we’re not art connoisseurs. The kids loved Prosperity Junction which immersed us in another era. Definitely try the sarsaparilla at the saloon and learn about the cowboy job. Outside, tour the different types of indigenous Indian homes.You’ll spend about 2-3 hrs here and take about 20 pictures.

Large quantities of memorabilia and exhibits. Clean facilities. Wonderfully helpful staff. Well worth the admission price. They also allow for several different discounts on admission. Very educational for the whole family!

I really enjoyed my visit to the National cowboy and western heritage museum! The museum has a wide variety of collections and throughout the museum, I was offered guidance by the volunteers. The front desk staff were super friendly and helpful!! The garden was closed today due to weather but they were so nice and offered me one complimentary ticket to come back later this week to see the gardens! 🥺 definitely recommend this museum to everyone visiting OKC!!

So amazing! Literally soooo amazing! One of the best museums I’ve been to. So much to see. I want to go back so I can see the rest. Just too much for one trip, but loved it all and can’t wait to return. Great gift shop too.

Absolutely love this museum! If you are on I40 or I35 near Oklahoma City it is very much worth your while to stop and visit. Parking is easy (and free!). You could easily spend several hours or just stop in to view the art in the main area. Highly recommend!

This site is great for family fun, a date night, school trip, or just a leisurely stroll. The Cowboy is easily our family's favorite outing this year. We've made a goal to go monthly. We see a new room we didn't know was there every time we go!

Very nice exhibits and interesting artifacts. I enjoyed the outside exhibits as well. We spent about 2 hours here and it kept my 14 year old’s attention. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable as well. They also have scavenger hunts and other activities for smaller children. Lots of good photo opportunities and appreciated the air conditioning inside since it was very hot outside. Nice gift shop on the way out too. Parking was simple and free.

We all had a great time here, our party included parents and a 16 yr old as well as a 4 year old. This museum is massive and you could spend hours inside and then even more outside. The collections of art, memorabilia, antiques, replicas, etc are just enthralling to go through. There is no shortage of items to look and learn about in this massive museum. The old west replica town is so immersive, you feel like you are in a western. It is so well put together and several buildings you can actually go in and take really cute photos. I agree that the native American side of western history is severely lacking here - but the title does have COWBOY most prominent and that is what you will find here. Tons of cowboy history. From the wild west to the movies to the rodeo and beyond. I really wasn't expecting the massive structures outside of the museum but it is truly a sight to see. I recommend allotting plenty of outside time, especially if you are there with younger children. There is a playground, interactive areas and lots of immersive play opportunities. The people that complain about this museum must just hate life. My only complaint I have from our visit was that my four year old wanted to rush us through everything and I felt jipped on my experience there! I guess I will just have to go back!!

Absolutely loved the experience! Had a conference nearby and we had opportunity to stroll privately through this place. As a New Yorker who loves museums 10/10. Their private event space was amazing.

Absolutely, without a doubt, one of the highlights of our trip to the States. Loved everything about this place and tbh I'm not normally a museum person. Staff were fantastic, art was stunning and every area was superbly presented. Highly highly recommend 💯💯💯

Nat'l Cowboy museum was nice however, is was really alot of walking and a series of mazes which may cause you to miss a section or area. There were some pictures that I didn't understand the relationship to the cowboys or western idea but thern some were for sale by Artists that were displaying orther paintings so well.. maybe museum politics? The guides were very knowledgeable and helpful but there was an area where I felt that I was being pushed to believe something about Texas and I was forced to quickly look up a map of the State of Texas during its time as a Republic before a part of it was sold off to pay for expenses incurred while battling Gen. Santa Anna/Mexican Army. Overall, was great but expect to have tired feet that night at bed time as we stayed about 5 hrs looking. Enjoy!

Huge museum with amazing displays. Also has a whole wing dedicated to art. Things to do both indoor and outdoor. Small cafe on site with indoor and outdoor seating. Also has space for events. Plenty of parking.

Truly incredible museum with an incredible amount of history, exhibits, statuary, examples of weaponry, clothing, household and old west town every day life, Indian life, military, rodeos, art, etc... This has to be one of our top museums we've seen in America!

Was not expecting such a museum in a place such as OKC, not going to lie…I frequented many national museums in DC and I am glad I stumbled across this one. I will definitely be back to take time to soak in the entire exhibit. I highly recommend this museum if you are into these kind of places. Beautiful inside and outside.

My visit to the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum was a truly memorable experience. One of the highlights for me was exploring the outdoor Native American living quarters. It was fascinating to see how Native Americans lived and worked, and the attention to detail in the recreation of the living quarters was impressive.In addition to the outdoor exhibits, the museum itself is full of fascinating artifacts and exhibits that showcase the history and culture of the American West. From cowboy gear to Native American art, there's something for everyone to enjoy.The museum also offers a range of educational programs and events, making it a great destination for families and anyone interested in learning more about the history of the American West.Overall, I highly recommend a visit to the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. It's a great way to experience the rich history and culture of the American West in a fun and engaging way.

Had a wonderful time at the national cowboy and Western Heritage Museum. Bought tickets at the gate and was able to roam around all of the exhibit. I joined a tour which covered a lot of western history involving the trappers and firearms along with some of the clothing that was worn during those, early 1900sStopped at the gift store on the way out and got a T-shirt !I will be returning for a gala, which there ballroom is perfectly suited for, very beautiful art.

Fantastic museum - very detailed. Budget 3 hours for your visit to see everything.Lots of great western artifacts.. some exterior western exhibits geared toward kids.. and the short film about the history of Hollywood western films is highly recommended..!

The Cowboy Museum, as it's locally known, has made some big changes over the last couple years, and they are all for the better. The best part right now is an expanded outdoor space that honors many Native American tribes in the Oklahoma area and their stories. Liichokoshkomo' showcases a Chickasaw Council House, Hopi Pueblo homes and much more! Kids can also choose an animal guide to find drawing prompts, codes words, the sounds of the Old West and how many cowboy hats are in certain exhibits. If you haven't been to the Cowboy Museum in awhile, you definitely need to check it out! There's so many new things to see!

Enjoyed our visit which happened to coincide with the Chuck Wagon Festival. The kids really enjoyed the rope making as well as many other activities. We really enjoyed the museum as well. The old town and the rodeo areas were favorites for our kids. We spent about 3 hours there with two kids ages 9 and 5.

Took my grandkids, and we loved it!2 disappointments though: they don't accept cash at the food place in there, and I couldn't find my Grandads photography on the walls that used to be there. But other than that, we had the BEST time!

Probably one of the best museums in OKC for families. There is something that will interest everyone in your group. From art, to history of the rodeo to several kids activities. Been there several times and it never disappoints. Throughout the year they have large scale events such as the Chuck Wagon festival (late May) and much more. Be sure to follow them on social media for upcoming events.

Great museum to visit! Well curated collections to tell the story of the American West with artifacts, built out sets, activities, interactive story boards, and every medium of art imaginable. It was easy to spend an afternoon here, enjoying the history and learning so much along the way both inside and out.

Went with my 90 year old dad and 44 year old daughter. We all loved the entire museum! Worth every dime!!! Dad loved all the old cowboys and told us all about most of the. Great memories!!

This was a great museum! It covered a lot of history. There were multiple videos to watch. It has a lot of artwork and sculptures to look at. It's bigger than it looks. It took us a couple hours but could have taken longer if we would have stopped to read everything.

Enjoyed our family visit to the National Cowboy & Western Heritage museum. There is something for everyone here. I was impressed with the Art and sculpture. Others in my party enjoyed the movie and rodeo memorabilia. We spent 4 entertaining hours.I was impressed by helpful volunteer docents who gave us an excellent overview at the start and helped us learn more in the exhibits.

Excellent! So much to see here so plan to be here for a few hours. The right side has a bit more things to see and read than the left I think personally. Don't forget to go outside! I will be back because I know I missed some things and what an awesome National Cowboy Museum.The bathrooms were clean. The staff was friendly and ready to give important facts about wherever you were in the museum.Plenty of parking. They have a small cafe. Didn't eat food so cannot give an opinion. Ticket prices were good, they did offer us a disabled vet discount so that was nice.Go check this museum out!

We went on the first nice Saturday of the spring and it was super crowded. The overflow parking was across the street at the racetrack. Other than the long walk to and from the car, once inside, it wasn't bad. With all of the new expansions, the exhibits were all comfortable to get around. It was the first time I had been to the zoo in close to 10 years. It is certainly not the same as when I was a kid. The new elephant area is huge and all the animals have so much room to roam around. No more little cages for any of the animals. The Asia experience is beautiful and I can't wait to go back when the Africa section is also complete. That being said, with all of the updates the cost has also increased quite a bit. I believe that you can still bring a picnic lunch inside as well as your own snacks. We ate at the Cafe by the sting rays and for 3 kid drinks, fries, a hamburger, and chicken strips it was almost $50! 🤯 Wear comfortable shoes, because you will be walking a lot!

The zoo is very large but it doesn't mean it has more animals. The habitat overall for each animal is a lot larger so there is more places for the animals to hide. It will take a little more effort to find the animals especially on hot days. Best time to come is right when the zoo open at 9 to see the animals out and eating. It will take about 5 hours to see the whole zoo. There are maps posted at many locations but the layout is a little confusing. They have free tram rides to take you to parts of the zoo. Decent amount of shady area. It's a combination with botanical garden but there wasn't that many flowers displayed or designated garden. Gift shop was ok needs some updating to get more customers in the door. Best part for me was the animal hospital. Not many zoos displays that and unique to this zoo. Best to buy tickets online so you can scan and go in without waiting in line to buy tickets

Most of the zoo is under construction currently. It would be nice if tickets were discounted since a good portion (pushing half or more) is under construction. But it's still a lot of fun! Some things were still left from the dino exhibit. The zoo is huge, give it at least 3 hours. Lots to see. Bring quarters (feeding ducks, turtles, fish), $1 and pennies (smashing), $5s (wax molds!) and then however you're going to pay for food.There should be exhibit signs for the construction. For the workers, the machines, what's going on. Kids like construction, too, and adults are curious. I would love to see signs about who is working, what they like, how the machines work and facts about them. How the company hired is contributing to making a better planet. They're missing a perfect chance to teach.

It was a great school trip. The zoo is doing remodeling so there was a lot of construction that was going on. The animals that were there were awesome to see. The kids and everyone there had a great time, and can't wait to see what new exhibits will come. The zoo was also setting up the lights for Halloween, which was really cool to see as well.

With a whole new exhibit being constructed and the aquatic area slated for a full makeover there is a lot of work being done around the zoo. It made it feel very run down. Most exhibits were closed or empty. Some were just full of debris. Then, the exhibits that were open were overly crowded with unattended field trippers. The kids were so disappointed with the animal situation that they spent most of their time playing on the jungle gyms. For a Zoo actively pushing to be voted “Best Zoo in the Nation” it has a long way to go.That being said, the updates being made are very nice. When it’s all done I’m sure it’ll be fantastic. Until then though it just seems like a waste. We basically spent $100 for our kids to go to the playground.

Zoo experience was great. Every animals, and birds have enough space for themselves. They were properly labeled with their features or characteristics which is enough to distinguish them.There are separate sections for snakes, water creatures, asian animals, cats (lion) and many more. Special section is bear, they are real entertainers.New wing is currently under construction which will involve new animals or scenery to the zoo beauty. It has train service ($9-10/ person), if anyone wants to use. Food and water outlets inside as well.Kids live to spend time with their families.It will take minimum 5 hours to maximum 7 hours to see and enjoy whole zoo.

The zoo has made many changes since I was last there, 13 years ago. I decided to take my 19 year old son with me. We had a blast! Unfortunately we did not get to see all the animals because it was hot and they go inside, but that is expected. Either way, it was worth it! We took many photos and videos. Even stopped to ride the carousel. Just remember to be courteous to the animals and don't let little ones bang on their glass, it stresses them out more. Don't forgot to stop in the little shop they have by the night exhibit, it's quant and has many goodies inside (I'd recommend going that direction last, or else you'll be carrying everything throughout the day.)

Daughters first time there, and she loved it. Haven't been in years and a lot has changed and been added. Staff was friendly and the zoo was surprisingly clean with as many people that were there. You have to get there early for a good parking spot though, otherwise you are parking across the street at the casino or if you're lucky, next door at the science museum. Military discount is great!

A great zoo with many fun events and animals from all across the world. Seems to be a very popular spot for field trips. Some sections seem to be perpetually under construction, but that means it's constantly changing. The zoo friends perks are great for frequent visitors and discounts.

Clean, spacious. I loved how close all the animals seemed to be. And they were all out. Went on a week day. Which seemed to be wise.We brought our own food.I loved some of the artwork that made it feel like Oklahoma.Lot of shade and different picnic areas.I will say, they had plenty of maps. But they needed more dang signs!

It was busier than I thought it would be on a Monday! But it was still fun. The weather was cloudy and I think that may have affected how many animals we got to see. Overall this zoo is very kid friendly and has a lot of fun exhibits. This zoo def has some hills and the train/trolly ride is WELL worth it. Because you can hop off and on or ride it around to look at the animals. All of the staff was nice and we got snacks and drinks which were all good! There are cute little photo spots with statues of the animals which is great. The pavilion is also really cool and has water for kids to play in. It was indeed a good zoo to visit and we will indeed be back!

I'd recommend to take the mini train for a ride in the first place and save some energy for the animals you and your family love. The park is worth for at least two days visit. But the legwork was a bit exhausting. Bring your own food. The park's food is not bad but might be a little pricey than average.

Place is under construction in a lot of spots, but it says that on the website so you should know ahead of time. Love the giant pride flags they have out during pride month, makes me feel very validated! The animals are very interesting and well taken care of. I've been going here every few years since I was a toddler and will be coming here more in the future. <3

I love our zoo! I can wait for the new exhibits to be done (should be soon)! We are moving up in the world.This is a great place for kids with multiple playgrounds, rest areas, and a waterfall with stream the kids can play in!

My kiddos and I came during the week the OKC Zoo was having free admission. It wasn't very crowded at all since a lot of schools started this week. What I was really impressed with was the amount of restroom stops they provided as well as cooling stations. I was so glad to see a lot of staff around as well, and they were all so nice. It was a pretty awesome visit despite how hot it was!

We had a blast! We really enjoyed how the animals were active for the most part, and how each area was so accurate to the regions that each animal was from. I wish we knew that the feeding zoo cost to enter so we could've been better prepared... Other than that we had a great time and all of the zoo employees were very friendly helpful and professional! Will be going back after the African exhibit is done!

The OKC Zoo is simply the best place to hang out any day of the week. So much to see and do! If you can, buying a pass is the way to go. I’ve been taking my children there for 20 years and absolutely love it! The zoo keeps improving and I hope to see it completed one of these days.

The zoo is now better than ever with the Expedition Africa open. They did however change companies for the dining areas so the Flavor Burst ice cream (the one everyone remembers from school) is no longer carried. However I will not dock points because I do not know the reason for the swap. The giraffe enclosure is so awesome now, you can see them from 95% of it due to how open the walk way is. I recommend the OKC Zoo and have been ~4 times in the past year it is always growing and getting better.

No zoo map to walk around with?! Closed exhibits! I've been to a few zoos in my lifetime but this one ranks toward the bottom. It could be so much better, that's all I'm trying to say.

2023 Safari Lights drive and walk through reservation. $70 for a car with up to 4 walk passes. It's about an hour and a half to see it all, but give yourself 2 hours. The drive was nice with more animals and peaceful, quiet, or Christmas music and heat. It only costs $7 more for 4 people to do the drive and walk than just the walk through, so that is the way to go, but you must order online in advance to reserve your time slot. I'm not sure it is something we will do every year, but it was very nice. The walk was nice with some interaction activities and places for photo opportunities. There were concessions around where you could warm up, and I saw some people cooking marshmallows. At the entrance, there is a light show all around that lasts for about 6 songs (+- 9 min) or so and then gives a 3 minute countdown before restarting. Wish there were longer paths to walk as we saw it all relatively quickly.

Coming from St. Louis where the zoo is free, it’s hard to beat that, but this zoo is definitely in the top 3 that we’ve been to! The habitats were large and beautifully done. There were a few areas we had to do some backtracking to see everything because of the layout, but it was worth it to see all the animals! We missed the mountain lion the first time around but saw them out on our second pass. The bats in the barn area were my favorite—such a unique thing to watch them active! We were supposed to feed the rhinos and had prepaid for it, but the rhino didn’t want to participate. They refunded the money we had paid for the rhino feeding tickets without any issue. We had a great time!

It was a great calming experience. It was during a weekday so it was All Adults, Not crowded. We walked around the whole park Not realizing 5hrs past by fast. The bathrooms were very clean, The lady at the Ticket both was really Kind, & The gentleman working The food booth By The Cats were respectful/Kind Also, They seemed like they enjoyed were they was working. The girls in the Starbucks seemed like they don’t like anyone & Just wanted to get paid to be there. But I will definitely say I would like to visit again 💯 Just cause It was a Beautiful, & Soothing place to Enjoy.

We have gone so many times with the purchase of the annual unlimited access tickets, best deal you can get. After 7 times back to back pretty much we still have so many things to learn about and explore, it seems like they have something new every time we go. Well done OKC zoo!

Great zoo! For adults, they do have places that sell alcohol but expect it to be 10 dollar beers, I bought two beers and two waters and it came out to 30 dollars. The exhibits are all nice, and the animals are all well taken care of!Military discount is half off tickets and they also have other discount programs for big brother/sister and I believe discounted tickets for the elderly.

The improvements have been amazing and Exhibition Africa is awesome. The OKC community is so proud of this zoo. It’ll be even better once the aquatic area is complete. I’ve been volunteering for quite some time and can’t thank the staff enough for all they do. Go and check it out; you won’t be disappointed.

Love going here on my days off. We went recently and did a Wild Encounter with the Galapagos Tortoises! Deffintely worth the price PLUS the goats in the new part of the Children's Zoo are TOO CUTE!

You forget you are in OKC here! It is a top notch zoo and will definitely be back because I didn't get to finish it. The only reason it doesn't have 5 stars and it's probably being nit-picky, but the map is super confusing and was hard to figure out where I was and where I was going. I wish they had more sign posts around pointing directions.

This is one of the best zoos I have ever been to. The staff was incredible! They were all friendly and kind, even in redirecting the kids to keep the animals safe.The zoo was interactive and the animals were social. Very kid friendly.

Went during a school field trip this time at around 10 am. There is still a lot for the kids to see by just walking around. Love this place. Different attractions at different times, so make sure you know what you want to go for and plan around that. If you're just going to walk around then around 10 am to 3 pm is the perfect temp and time to go.

A great place to visit. We were there for about 4 hours and still could only see part of the zoo.My wife got to feed the giraffes and loved that.I loved getting a mold from the Mold-a-matic. They had these at different places I visited when I was a child. It was like walking back into time and IT WAS FABULOUS!!!A perfect experience for the whole family!!Also, they had a lot of potential discount groups so make sure and find out if you can get a discount.

It was busy but we had a great time. Most of the animals were able to be viewed either outside the enclosure or inside relaxing. My favorite are the tortoises, giraffes and elephants but the petting zoo and cuddling up goats definitely brings a smile to your face.

We went on a Saturday afternoon in April and the zoo was incredibly packed. People will not hesitate to cut you off while walking. Due to the heat, many of the animals were sleeping or hiding. Notably the bears. We weren’t able to see any of the bears on this day. The monkeys and gorillas were definitely the most active animals on this day. The tram ride is $6 per person and I would recommend that on hot days. The cool part about the tram is that they provide you with unique animal facts and the zoo’s history as you are riding and seeing the animal exhibits. The bird feeding is $4 per person and I thought that it was ridiculous that I had to pay $4 just to walk in and watch my family members feed birds that didn’t want to eat. Bring your own drinks because we waited in line for 30 minutes to spend $25 on drinks that would have been $8 or less at any overpriced gas station across the state. Despite the sometimes disappointing price points and waits, the employees were incredibly friendly across the zoo. I would recommend going on a cooler day and during the week if you can.

Had a lot of fun. Wonderful to know you can bring your drink and lunch in so you can have a little picnic bought bracelets and what they call a key it opens up 22 different boxes that tell about different animals

2023 the zoo has a light show that takes place after 4:00 they have huge figurines very unique throughout your walk of checking out the zoo animals. It was absolutely beautiful. Me and my family had a blast,the time went by so fast that we wished there had been more time to continue our visit.

Fun experience at the OKC zoo! Little disappointed to not see as many animals as expected. Missing the hippos, alligators, zebras, sting rays. You are able to bring your own food and drinks which was nice. Overall good experience but could have more exhibits open.

Very nice, Zoo. Camel rides, giraffe feeding and more. Tram to be able to get on and off or for those who have a hard time. It takes you around the park to see the bigger animals. It was fun.

We loved the zoo. They let you get closer to some animals than most other zoos. The bears put on a show for us. We got to see 3 different animals get fed. Even though it stormed for a bit, it was so much fun. Here are 3 photos of the zoo. We 100% lived in the moment and did not take a lot of pictures.

W😱W!! I wish we had more time to explore!! And I wish it was cooler but the misting fans around the facilities, waterfalls, and a/c indoor exhibits made it much more bearable. Every zoo I've been too always advertise elephants but then never have them. I was so incredibly happy to see the Asian elephants. The mommas and and babies. Oh I could sit and just watch them all day. We took advantage and fed all the animals at the encounters. My favorite were the little birds. I did feel we were robbed on the giraffe feeding. $5 for 2 small leaves. Other zoos usually give you 5 big romaine lettuce leaves. It didn't take away from the over visit but I wouldn't pay for that encounter feed again. We paid for the camel ride for our daughter. So cool. Where else can you ride a camel?!?We ate chicken strips at the little restaurant there. We got the 4 piece and fries. These were very hot and tasty.I love the animal hospital. During our visit we got to see a small team work on a bird that had been overly aggressive. We weather a procedure to help control its anger issues lolThe lady there was very nice and answers all our questions. After 5 hours and temps near 100 degrees we were exhausted. I didn't have anymore walk in my legs. I wish I did but would definitely go back!!

We’ve been to the suit twice and last time unfortunately I had food poisoning from the hotel and wasn’t able to see much. This time we finally got around to seeing about 80% of the zoo and it was really awesome! Would’ve seen the other 20% Our feet wouldn’t let us. Got to feed some birds and pet a stingray. There are so many things to keep you busy I highly recommend going to the zoo! Also the fried okra was out of this world here and the chicken and fries with the gravy is enough to fill up both me and my husband and have a lot of leftovers that went to waste. I would recommend getting the two piece chicken strip and sharing it with your partner!

We went here on a saturday. We stayed for 4 hours and was able to tour the whole place. We really enjoyed playing with the goats/sheeps, my daughter was able to eat/pet the animals which she enjoyed. I enjoyed the experience of riding their camel for $8/head, it was truly a unique experience 😂😂 i like that you can see and observe the animals up close compared to other zoos we’ve been in before, the place wasnt too crazy and overwhelming. It was a lot of walking and he number of different kinds of animals was enjoyable 😍they also have a small playground for kids that my kid enjoyed :3

My family and I have an amazing time here every time we go! They really take care of their zoo here and have expanded, making it even greater experience. Highly recommend! Bring the family and have a good time

Had a wonderful time at the zoo per usual! However I forgot my ice chest, so had to purchase drinks and things! But I of course think it's great that they even allow you to bring your own food and drinks! I love the animals and my kids always have a great time! If you don't have a stroller you can rent wagons and things, or even wheel chairs!

I visited the OKC Zoo for the first time on a hot day with temperatures reaching 95 degrees. Despite the heat, the experience was quite enjoyable. The zoo is well-maintained with a great variety of animals and plenty of shaded areas and indoor exhibits to escape the sun. However, the drinks were extremely expensive, so I highly recommend bringing your own. Overall, it was a good visit and I’m looking forward to returning, hopefully on a cooler day!

Amazing place! I especially enjoyed the Celtic Throne performance during the summer of 2021.

A hidden gem in Central Oklahoma. Saw Celtic Throne as they began their 2023 tour. A premier venue for musical concerts. The venue is beautiful with comfortable seats and amazing acoustics. Staff is super friendly and willing to assist. A definite must for musical performances .

Our first time to visit this auditorium, and we were not disappointed! Beautiful facility and the acoustics were great for performances. We saw the Celtic Throne, and the talent of these young adults and kids was amazing. Plenty of informed staff to help with doors, directions, history and parking. Small parking lots but the staff moved traffic in and out safely and quickly.

Loved it. Had an exhibit bringing rare Bible artifacts to be seen by Oklahoman's...Skip the religious reference if you do not believe! The artifacts are still rare examples of very old ancient civilizations.There was no cost or any asking or place where you could put a donation. I did ask ...and gave a small amount and may mail in more money donation. This is rare for an exhibition or museum not to have a place for donations where such significant things are being displayed.This exhibit dealt Seals Isaiah and Hezekiah. It goes til Aug. 19, 2018

A very wonderful place to be. I 100% recommend coming here for a concert or an event. It is very beautiful and the staff very hard working and happy. This is one of the nicest places I've ever been.

Absolutely the best show I have ever seen. The lighting was incredible along with the talent on the stage. The venue was marvelous as soon as you walked through the doors. The audience was very involved, clapping to the songs! The audience even stood up to clap after a couple performances. I would go see it again tomorrow if there was another show :)

The perfomance of Celtic Throne was phenomenal! I've seen it once in person and many times on DVD and it is beautiful every time. I can't help but picture Jesus and the angels dancing along with them! Thank you for the great love that you all have put into this !

A stunning building with a great auditorium. The seats were comfortable and had ample leg room. Everything was well organized and flowed well. Seemed a little pricy.

Incredible!! Such sharp, dramatic choreography. Such showmanship--every single person right down to the little peeps! We could tell they were having fun. I really loved how Jude explained about the family connections. Wow! The patriotic songs were also very stirring, and many in the audience gave them a standing ovation. It was so professional and somehow it just keeps getting better! How is that possible?! I'll be back next week!

My cheeks hurt from smiling! My hands hurt from clapping! My voice gone from screaming! And my mind, soul and strength recharged from the message! What a rush! The acoustics at Armstrong Auditorium quake!! Thank you to all the crew and staff, amazing hospitality. Finding a parking spot was a delight, quick and easy being directed by traffic control through the beautiful campus both arrival and departure. Can't wait to come back!!

We enjoyed the show Celtic Throne very much! Outstanding talent! Lots of variety! The location is absolutely beautiful! Thank you for an amazing time!

Celtic Throne was simply AWESOME!!!! The dancers were OUTSTANDING even the little ones, with great energy, charisma and flair!!!! The singers were GREAT and the musicians were PHENOMENOL with so much energy and excitement!!!!This was our 1st time at the Armstrong Auditorium and this place was BEAUTIFUL!!!! We look forward to attending more performances!!

My wife and I saw the Glenn Miller Orchestra Thursday, April 4th at Armstrong. It was our first time with this orchestra and at this venue. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend both. The auditorium is beautiful throughout and the three giant chandeliers are beyond words. The orchestra was nothing short of outstanding and the musical selections were excellent. The only issue was that it was difficult to hear vocals due to the volume of the instruments. This was not a major issue and would not stop me from coming back. Overall it was still a great 5-star experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed The Celtic Throne. The dancers and musicians were outstanding and the music and light show were exception. The grounds of the auditorium are gorgeous and well kept. The art inside is beautiful and the staff is very friendly. I intend to attend more events in the future. It was throughly enjoyable from start to finish. I highly recommend this venue!

As a teen I watched all of the old musical movies with Big Band music. The Glen Miller Band with "In The Mood" has always been my favorite. Last night at the Armstrong Auditorium with the Glen Miller Band was wonderful. The only thing missing was the dance floor. Thank you for the opportunity to cross off on my bucket list, my live big band experience. I loved it! 5 stars!

We are never disappointed with our experiences at Armstrong Auditorium! Thoroughly enjoyed the Glenn Miller Orchestra last night, as we knew we would! Everything about it was fantastic! Your venue is absolutely gorgeous and we love having a reason to dress up for a night on the town! Keep up the good work!

Absolutely gorgeous! We saw Celtic throne ...it was wonderful ❤️❤️❤️! Standing ovation worthy! Loved everything about it! Thank you so much for bringing them to Edmond! My sister and brother in law treated us to the show.. beautiful ❤️..I hope they return..a must see again 💞

We saw VOCE8 from Great Britain. The facility is simply amazing. The opulence is stunning, you feel like you have just walked into a palace. The acoustics in the auditorium can't be beat. Thank you for a completely enjoyable evening.

Over the top as always. Try not to miss any of the performances. The stream came through flawlessly and we and those watching with us are inspired by the 100% effort put in by all involved. Thank you. We will be making the 10 hour trip to Nashville for the June 10th performance to be able to see it live for the very first time.

Sound and video quality on the live stream was excellent. Ideally, it would have been great to have an additional camera for close ups, but of course that would mean a producer for switching cameras in real time so I get that that's a lot more complicated. Show 10/10!

Had a wonderful evening at the Armstrong with my husband last night. The staff were all very helpful and kind. The venue is in a class by itself, and I don’t think there is a bad seat in the house. The only thing that I thought was a bit off was that the stage floor was extra dusty. But on a final note (pun intended) getting to hear the Hamburg Steinway again was such a treat. Such a joy to see a 26-year-old play it so brilliantly.

Wonderful venue. Beautiful architecture, and great sound. Attended the Glenn Miller Orchestra presentation, and it rocked. Attended two (2) other shows (Ray Chen and Irish dancers). Perfect productions. Have updated, and increased my season tickets. You can't go wrong with Armstrong Auditorium.

Such a cute historic spot to stop on Route 66! This round barn has lots of history behind it, that you can read about in the museum/gift shop downstairs. And the upstairs is a must see. The ceiling looks as if it’s a woven basket, so neat! Lots of space upstairs to have an event such as a dance or wedding. The pictures would be beautiful! Definitely recommend stopping by for a photo opp and to learn a little bit!

We arrived within twenty minutes of closing. With that being said the woman working still gave all three of our kids their scavenger hunt paper, which helps to be more interactive within the building, and encourages reading about the different art pieces to help fill in the paper. We would definitely visit again to have more time to read around. The upstairs is breath taking. It's an awesome piece of history I hope continues to stay around. We were not rushed to be out, and we still got to see everything in a timely manner.

It’s round. It’s a barn. Joking aside-It’s a great stop on Route 66 that is pretty awesome. Downstairs has history of the barn and the area. This thing is an architectural landmark and it’s great to see it preserved. Upstairs you really get a great look at how the roof was constructed. Farm machinery exhibits outside and bathrooms are clean.

If you ever wanted to see a round barn, then here she be! Inside tells the history of the barn. There are two levels to explore. The inside also has things you can buy. Parking is across the street. Basically you just pull over off the highway. Make sure and look both ways before crossing. Speeding cars might get you! Also check the hours before going in case they are closed.

Volunteers here are amazing!! They gave me maps and a lot of detail on what was nearby and accessible to visit on their portion of Route 66. Fun place to visit too, displays to look at, history, souvenirs if you need them. Best part was the local knowledge and the amazing folks to answer your questions.

Such a lovely gem on Route 66! Free to enter and check out and there are so many amazing antique artifacts to check out. Volunteers working in there are incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. As a volunteer in my home state of Illinois, it was refreshing to see other energetic and kind volunteers!! So fantastic. And so awesome that it’s preserved and still here!

This is so interesting. They were playing live music when I entered gift shop & it wasn't crowded. The inside is so beautiful. Love RT. 66 stuff.

Always fun to see the different stops along route 66. Loved that we found the Oklahoma passport books here, as a cute keepsake. Lots of history to look through and very easy on the budget.

Neat barn. The architecture of the roof when you're on the 2nd floor is incredible to see. They hold dances up there and you can rent the space for parties and weddings and such. I'm sure makes for a gorgeous venue. The first floor they have a thrift store as well as some history about the barn.

Very nice historical red barn. Right off the highway. Parking on the side of the road, and a parking lot in the back. Unfortunately we came early, and the barn wasn't open itself, but we were able to walk around and get some pictures.

We visited the Arcadia Round Barn on a weekday in May, 2023. other than one person in the gift shop, there was no one there. The store person didn't say anything to us, so we just went about our business. We viewed the barn, but didn't know a lot about it.It is nicely built, with really nice acoustics. But we didn't stay long. The museum runs on a donation system. So maybe donate to the cause if you can. They have rest rooms in a separate building and a nice little area outside the barn.It's a nice place to visit.

Quick stop on historic route 66 in Arcadia. Cool museum and gift shop with a friendly staff on the ground floor and loft above. The loft can be rented for shows, gatherings etc.

Historical place, you must visit if you are around Oklahoma City or near by , this is one of attraction in entire route66 apart from pops 66 which is close by. Don’t forget to get a route66 passport and get it stamped and explore entire route from Chicago to Los Angeles… highly recommend…

Warm welcome.and a unique selection of historical perspectives, stories and items, including a collection of bricks and barbed wire, for example! Plenty about Route 66 as well including an interesting set of maps pre and post the route - showing highway networks.

We attended a wedding in the upstairs part of the round barn. The barn itself is awe-inspiring. The beauty and craftsmanship are breathtaking. The wedding was beautiful as well! If you have a function there, remember there is no air conditioning. They do have fans, but it is still very warm inside the barn. Also you should bring a sound system. It was extremely hard to hear the wedding party. We would do another function here. We will plan it for a time when it is much cooler weather, though.

I grew up by Arcadia and never stopped to look inside and boy was I a fool! This landmark is a work of art! You have to stop!

Unusual barn6, another stop on 66 that's interesting.Across the street from the chicken shack. Great food and great music! Lively place.

Delightful place and wonderful lady working the giftshop! Love the acoustics and wish I could attend a barn dance!

We stopped here while we were parked at Pops a half mile down the road. the volunteer was very informative. it was very interesting to spend time walking around this place looking at yesteryear There’s plenty of room to park handicap, accessible and best of all it’s free. I would recommend this place to everybody get your kicks on route 66.

I wasn't able to go in. It was closed due to the extreme heat . Only 106 that day. The exterior is still worth a picture.

EXPERIENCE THE Arcadia Round Barn, it’s a must see on your RT 66 Trip!The Round Barn is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is more than a century old.It is the only round barn on Route 66.Built in 1898The Arcadia Round Barn is located in Arcadia, OK. Six miles east of Interstate 35 on Route 66. Admission is FREE.Exhibits and a gift shop are located inside. Outdoor displays consist of primitive farm implements.The beautiful upstairs loft can be reserved for special events.Has alot of all farm equipment on the grounds as well as memorabilia from days gone bye inside barn. Free admission but they do ask for donations of two dollars per adult. Great acoustics inside the loft. They rent the loft for parties,weddings,family reunion.

There’s a lot to do, really see, in Arcadia. Visit the Round Barn to see all the things inside & out. There’s a map of the town with historical buildings still in existence. Further west is Pop’s where you can buy all kinds of different colored sodas, different candy, shop the gift shop, and even dine in their cafe. Food is great. Heading east out past the Round Barn is an old gas station, and old western style town, and a historical marker of the eastern line of the Oklahoma Land Run of 1889!

This is probably the best 30 minutes spent. It is beautiful and well maintained. There is no charge but they do accept donations. Be sure to go up the loft and check out the roof, absolutely beautiful.

We went today and took a look. I enjoyed looking at all of the old items on display. Two thumbs up. You can rent the top of the round barn for a wedding reception or some type of large gathering. It's restored very well. They had ample parking. It's worth giving it a look. It's a pleasant way to look at a by gone era. My wife got her Oklahoma passport stamped, made her day.

Supper fun and cool thing to do! It was really cool to see and talk to the owner!

The hotel room and walk in shower were both very nice and pretty clean.The hotel staff were kind and check in and out we're easy.The Casino has a good variety of modern machines and a few of the Video poker machines.The reason for only giving 3 stars is because all of the food court restaurants, the Sushi restaurant, and the Steakhouse, were all closed for our entire stay.The only places to eat are the Grand Cafe from 6 am to 2 pm, and the Sports bar.Both the Grand Cafe and the Sports bar had good food, but on Monday night, the Sports bar didn't have a bar tender. A sports bar without a bar tender, really isn't a sports bar!Everyone told us that all of the restaurants are closed because they can't get any employees. They provide great benefits, but still can't get any employees to staff the place. It's very unfortunate, because this would be a great destination resort, if all of their restaurants were open! Even the gift shop has a sign on the door that says, by appointment only. That's crazy!We won't be back, until the restaurants open.

Make sure to use HotelTully.ᴄᴏm when booking your stay. This site will compare countless booking websites and normally will have prices much cheaper than others! Thank me later on! This place is the best rated in this area. I have been coming here for a long time. If you decide to stay here you for sure will love it I'm sure!I stayed in my Tractor Trailer so I can't speak of the rooms. But I'm sure they are very nice. The whole place was well kept. The staff were awesome. PLENTY of parking for a big rig. I will definitely return! Thanks for a great evening out of the truck! I had a great time!

Probably the best casino in Oklahoma. From the outside it looks smaller than it actually is because it is probably the only two level casino in the state. Has an interesting little food court in place of the usual buffet, and a pretty nice sports bar with great and cheap pizza. The slots were not only loose, but there's a huge variety including some interesting classic games (still mostly bingo based though). The wheel of fortune game in the lobby is a treasure.

I've stopped here several times over the years and it's a beautiful casino however I've never had any luck here.. ate dinner at the sports bar and the food was delivered fast and was delicious.. service is excellent and the employees are extremely professional and nice.. plenty of truck parking is available even late at night.. just park in the back of the casino if you can't find a spot.. they also have a food court.. some guy next to me won $19,000.. good luck y'all..

Hotel and casino are pretty nice. Room was clean but AC made very loud noise for about 20 seconds every time I kicked on all night long. Really nice hot shower though and good selection of television stations. Poker room a little ridiculous with two plus hour wait for a table. Plenty of empty tables but I guess maybe they're short-handed on dealers? Ended up taking myself off the list at 8:30 p.m. after having waited 2 hours. Day shift players club phenomenal people but second shift supervisor should not have a job there. We were asking about the point system and how much it takes to get a comped room and all she rudely said was we base it on a lot of things and would give us no details. ( We had already stayed one night and extended for a second and just wanted one of those nights reverse comps)Food court has the best barbecue I've ever eaten out and the coffee shop is also really good. Fun machines and calming atmosphere in walkways. Felt very safe here.

For me, three stars is about the highest rating a tribal casino can receive. Perhaps if they made slot machine information/stats publicly accessible, then a five star rating could happen. That said, Grand Casino is a very nice casino. Of all the Oklahoma casinos I've visited (I have been to quite a few), it has the look and feel that most resembles a Vegas casino. It's clean, not smokey, and if I was smarter and less greedy I could walk out of there a winner on most visits. The 45 minute drive (longer during high traffic times) is definitely worth it.

Nice size gambling facility with non smoking areas. Wide variety of games. Good sports bar and grill. They have a nice non- smoking hotel with room service, a pool on the second or third floor, a spa and exercise area. The attached casino has free soft serve ice cream along with fountain drinks and coffee and tea machines. Enjoyed my visit there.

The restaurant has really good food and the price was good just wish the hours were longer being open. The food court food isn't bad either. The Mexican food station is the best. Other than that have fun losing money. I never go thinking I'm going to strike it rich. Lol

This is one of the best casino and hotel I've been to they know how to treat there customers they offer me one free night a month how nice is that...we always stop on our way to Missouri to see my son the pizza is the best and the breakfast at the restaurant is amazing the machine are very generous and the best thing is the margarita's..The staff is very friendly and rooms are clean and comfortable oh did I mention they have a soft service machine and the ice cream is delicious I was pour some in a cup and then coke wow a free float..Thank you guys for the free stay.. if I had to say anything bad about the casino its that they give me very little free play all the other casino I've stayed have been generous but besides that it's a great casino with lots of slots that pay out its just a great place to visit I will be going again in November I can't hardly wait try it out guys you will love it..please reply to me if you go tell me if I was right...God bless you all...

Awesome place great clean chill atmosphere friendly staff. Excellent free ice cream. Neat machines I miss some old familiar ones but I'm liking these and black jack on fire!!

Several weeks ago we spent three days in your beautiful hotel. We won a huge chunk of change too, playing the penny slots! Everyone (employees) was so friendly. Our room was immaculate! The casino itself is awesome! The restaurants were outstanding! The free ice cream each night was delicious and appreciated. Wish someone had been working in your gift shop the 3 days we were there, but it is what is. We have no complaints whatsoever! Your rates are better than other hotels in the area.

What a fun day at Grand Casino in Shawnee, OK!Love that they still have penny slots that are so much fun to play! Hope they never upgrade!Also, the free ice cream is awesome and the food court and sports bar is great ! Must check out!❤️

This place right here has some good people working here. The bartenders are awesome even though you generally only get what you pay for. My last visit was not recent as I was told not to return. To be fair the officer did give me the options to get a ride home (my brother was there

The Grand has decent rooms. I like the Grand because it's not far from where I live. It gives a little freeplay and comp rooms from time to time. They do have plenty of free giveaways to card members. I've gotten several nice things from there. The merchandise they give away to customers is good quality stuff. I've gotten backpacks, Bluetooth speakers, and other things. Some of the giveaways I've had to earn 40 points to get and others I could just walk in, grab my gift, and walk out.

This was my first time staying in any casino hotel. I've stayed at numerous hotels in my travels. I have even had extended stays while working out of town for weeks to month long stays. This was easily the best shower I've EVER had. Wouldn't hurt to have a nicer shower head, being the shower was so large the shower head was very small and basic? The room was a good size, had a desk w/chair, couch and 2 chairs, small refrigerator, microwave. Overall it was a very pleasant experience at a very competitive rate. I will definitely be staying in casino hotels whenever they're available for the location we're planning to stay. This room was particularly nice 👌 👍

I used to love this casino. Now never win. It feels rigged. Another lady and i were winning about a year ago . She was up 1600.00 I was up 500.00 as soon as I pulled my players card out of the machine...it immediately said DISABLED CALL ATTENDANT! That's rigged. It was hitting for an hour now curiously disabled. I've lost last 3x I've played ..beautiful place tight slots

Got a flat tire and pulled into parking lot. Went inside and 🎊🎉 amazing. I had forgotten how great it was. Funny and friendly staff. Clean restrooms. The spa has the best nail techs. I got a pregnancy massage and it couldn't have been better. The price was reasonable too.

The rooms are spacious and nice. Well equipped. They have a large buffet open varying days and hours. It's ok. Their coffee shop has above-average food and a few items are excellent. Service could be better. Their Asian cuisine restaurant has closed and will not reopen. Their signature restaurant is a Brazilian steakhouse and it is absolutely outstanding. Reasonably well equipped 2-story gaming area. Machines are Indian tight but do give decent play. A few of them break down a lot but I am told this will be addressed around August 2023. Small high limit area. Nice and well run poker room with tournaments Wednesday and Thursday evenings.

It's a fancy hotel and a casino how could you not love it! Now I've got to admit that their service is typical of any casino it's poor and you can't get a drink unless you're lucky enough to have a bar or a self-serve location. But I don't go to a casino to drink I do that at home. It's a good place to have a good time with your friends.

They’ve really upgraded the place over the last year. I like how they still have a lot of older machines. They also have a large non-smoking area upstairs that seems to go unnoticed. They should really put signs up guiding people to the area that don’t smoke.

I did not stay at hotel.I met a friend for lunch at the food court, which I love. I've tried the pizza, Chicken Alfredo, and the Mexi Bowl. All of it was very good. The lime rice at the Mexican food section is absolutely amazing. I had never had lime rice before, decided to try it and was so glad I did.Casino is very clean and lots of games. I didn't come home a millionaire but that's gambling!!!

Great parking, nice place, restaurants were mediocreonly game I played was roulette 70-80 or more chip in 1-36 and 10 times in a row it hit a number with no chips or 1 chip….? Odd???They charge a .50 per play on live games, like the house is not making any money after paying out barely anything to anyone. 🤷‍♂️Oh and it stinks like an ash tray! 🤢 both floors. Thank you

I love this place. Great restaurants with pleasant servers and fair prices!! I stop here whenever I drive this corridor, great place to hang out while your car charges!! Nice Casino though I don't gamble much. Clean and pleasant!!!

Highly recommend this and Choctaw nation if i could give Riverwind a no star review i would. This is a beautiful establishment with several dining options my only complaint is they aren’t open 24 hours except for Fri and Saturday which blows if your staying at the hotel. One thing i do like about the hotel is check out is at 11 but you can simply tell them you want to check out at noon and get that extra hour no charge

The parking was great, and they had ramps for wheel chairs. The pricing for the room was very nice and not too expensive. The room was very comfortable, and the bedwas soft and comfortable. I was able to fall asleep easily. The food was fantastic and not too pricy. The staff and front desk were very nice to us, and made sure all our needs were taken care of while staying there! Overall, if we ever came through here again, we would definitely stay again.

We are from Missouri, so when neither of us had phone service & we were relying on Google maps to get us there, we soon learned not to depend on maps or phone svc in this area. Once we got there, we had an okay time. They had a lot of slot machines, but none we cared for a lot. There just don't seem to be that much of a selection. Employees all seemed nice & courteous.

Always a fun time! Rooms are nice. Slots aretight. Had a good time playing baccarat. Flame is usually pretty good, had a bad server/bartender (same person) but other than that it was a great time!

Arrived in my room and pretty much discovered that the AC didn't work I turned it down to 68° on the thermostat and went to eat lunch. Came back to the room and the temperature had risen by 2 degges talked to front desk and let them know there were issues and the informed me they would send maintenance. Explained that I had to drive in 6 hrs and that I need to get sleep hopefull to get another room but of course not they are to worried about keeping rooms open to pack the most likely rip off casino. Made multiple complaints but no upgrade to room with a/c. Will be an enjoyable 700 mile trip with an hour and a half of sleep!

Driving cross-country, I mainly stayed in the major chains, but wanted to give the casino resort a shot. Turned out it was a great value with a really nice room. I'm not a gambler, but I walked through the casino to get to the restaurants. A little loud and smoky, but whatever. Unfortunately, I was there on a Sunday or Monday and dining options were more limited than usual. Even so, the grilled chicken sandwich was really nice and very reasonable. While I'm not a drinker anymore, the alcohol prices were extremely reasonable as well

We stoped by yesterday, and we had a great time, lots of machines. Could use more poker machines, some fun poker machines like hot roll, split, and so many others I enjoy playing, we came out ahead and hoping the casino will invite us for an overnight stay, then we could have a cocktail or two.

Easy to access hotel just 30 minutes outside of Oklahoma City.Staff is exceptional, very accommodating and friendly.The Brazilian all you can eat restaurant is fantastic! Service and food, excellent.Our waitress Mercedes was spot on: friendly and personable, quick and accommodating, and suggestive and knowledgeable.

Truck stop was the usual place. Not bad, just a truck stop. The food I got from the casino was less than I was hoping for. $20 for a meager few slices of brisket and 5 slices of their version of BBQ sausage, baked beans and mashed potatoes on the side. The BBQ sauce tasted like it was half corn syrup and half tomato sauce with a few spices added. I definitely won't be getting that again.The parking lot was very well lighted and easy backing. It makes a great place to spend the night. Maybe next time I'll try the sit-down restaurant in the casino

It is a very good Casino. The facilities are nice and clean. The food court has a grand variety of foods from different regions of the world. The customer service was great. The Casino offers free drinks and ice cream to its guest.They also offer Truck Parking... so this is a Truck Driver Friendly Casino. Excellent!I would definitely recommend that you visit Grand Casino Hotel & Resort.

Had my daughter, mom, and sis in laws birthday here. Great games. Someone in our party left with money. So that's a bonus. Great time and would go back. Good food in the restaurant that's cheap too!

Stayed with my daughter who is 10, she had a spa day with facial and massage, they were super professional. Clean and comfortable areas, my daughter loved it! Can’t beat their rates for room, food or anything. Go now!

First time staying here and it was better than we were expecting. Very clean and excellent customer service from every employee we encountered. The food was also good although with our last minute planning we were unable to get into the steak house and spa, so make reservations ahead of time if you want to do either of these things. We didn't win big, but won enough to have 2 full evenings of game play. Prices were more reasonable than I have seen from a hotel casino in many years. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a weekend getaway.

We live in the area and thought we would try the food court at the grand. Well can tell you will not be back employees were to interested in each other and not the customers. Food was not very good, I had the brisket dinner and it was mostly fat, asked for sliced and got what looked to be chopped. When I asked about it I was told that it was sliced in a not so friendly tone.

I love that they have free ice cream. Their machines were tight as in no wins to brag about. There was 5 of us there and we left to go to another casino.

Loved that it was not a smoky as other casinos. Also, the Flame restaurant was fantastic. All you can eat steak and other items. Reasonably priced for everything you get. Food was delicious. Looking forward to a return visit.

First time I ever Ben here. I gotta say it was pretty nice. Lots of games n it was pretty clean. I actually hit a 1200.00 jackpot. The pay out took a little bit but they were pretty busy that evening. I'm ready to go back.

The room was nice and clean. The bed was very comfortable. King size bed room, for two people. You only get two towels set (washcloth, hand and bath towel). If you want water bottles, you can buy them or bring them in.

This is a great place to stay. Quiet rooms and nice size rooms. Very quiet and great room darkening curtains. Toilet has its own room. But shower is in same room and closed by 2 pockets doors. Very comfy beds and lots of comfy blankets. We were very toasty. The side lounge room was nice. Couch and a nice desk area. Lots of lights and super bright bathroom lights. Very helpful staff.

I park my semi truck here. Play at the casino which I've had a few hand pay wins. The restaurant has great food for a very reasonable price and the portions are very nice. Haven't had the pleasure of staying in any rooms yet. But the location is great. East on/off interstate Access. People are awesome. Highly recommend if you're passing through in a semi truck or on vacation.

I've never stayed in the hotel but the casino has done us pretty good. When I was locked up in county jail on a $2000 cash bond my wife walked in with $350 and within 2hours she had $2500 and I was bailed out within hours. Good looking out red blood and thank you baby, I love you more than life

Always a clean, inviting environment. The only luck I have there is usually non-existant. My money does not go very far on the slot machines.However, if you are not lactose intolerant, you can have all the ice cream you can eat.

Might be a little prejudice since I am a Cowboys fan (Go Pokes!) but this campus is so pretty! 🤩😍 Yes there is currently construction going on in some areas but can still easily navigate 🚙🚲🛵. The grounds are kept immaculate, no trash, no loitering of unsavory types, well maintained roads w/signs. Did go prior to students returning from summer break but able to get around campus & to town to explore no problems.Student housing bit of mess I hear? 5k more students this Aug 2024.3 day conference attended was a positive experience all-round. 👍

I'm proud to be an OSU alumni. The facilities and people are top notch. I love it so much my daughter is attending!😜👍 Go Pokes!

Forever timeless, nothing quite like Oklahoma State University.

OSU was home for 4 years during 2016-2020. Came from Bangladesh as a grad student, did a double MS, got married, started my first family, parents visited, experienced COVID in early 2020. All these years, always found peace and rejuvenation around the library, international mall, Colvin, CEAT and Human Sciences buildings. Would love to get back whenever opportunity presents itself!

I'm a parent and all the money we pay for dorms and they can't open a window! My son been back 3 days and sick! The building flooded last semester and has not been aired out! Are you all trying to make our kids sick? Is it a fire code violation to bolt windows shut? Believe me, I will find out. Also, make sure carts are available at all move in dates! Don't request ppl to be early and not have all the equipment needed to move. You all need to get it together!!!I said I'd find out! Now fix it!You all are in violation code R310.1 Emergency Escape and Rescue required.Every sleeping room shall have at least one operable Emergency Escape and Rescue opening.Section R310.2 Emergency Escape and Rescue openings shall open directly into a public way, yard, or courtyard.Section R310.2.1 window openings can be open 6 to 20 inches based on the floor.

Had a pretty good semester of graduate school here before transferring. I found that it felt like a “small” school but with all of the perks of being a massive Big 12 Conference member. Fun football games, some good professors (and easy classes) with a beautiful campus. Go Pokes!

Always Great Campus, With Top Technology Center's Available.

A student who was supposed to be moved for "Emergency" Housing has not heard anything for over a week. Housing either doesn't answer their phone or promises to call back and never does. Do better OSU, you aren't keeping your students safe, just seeing them as income.

One of my worst experiences in my entire life. As an international student, I am telling everyone to avoid this school by any cost. It is really not worth it plus they treat as an ATM, they come up with fees and they really good at it. Don’t underrate yourself and apply for better schools. Also stillwater itself it really sucks and there is literally nothing here and it’s so hot in summer and cold in winter.If you are reading this DONT COME here be careful

It's a great University. Been here for two years and it never ceases to surprise me. A wonderful world away from the rest. Best place for students to hone their skills and learn new ones. For me it's personal you should be here in person to feel the energy of this little university town. You wouldn't believe how happening this place is. Welcome to Oklahoma State University. #gopokes.

beautiful university! very distinguished! and we were here! because my daughter received a writing recognition! . congratulations 🎉🍾🎊🎈!!! daughter ! proud of you! proud to live in Oklahoma! and have been in this university! of first class !

I love the campus and my program, but the city is a prison if you don’t have a car. No bus or train for other cities, only university’s bus to tulsa which doesn’t work in holidays or weekends. Not All students can afford buying a car!

The grounds are. The workers are good people. The OSU Police department falsely accuses students of reckless behavior. I was wrongfully arrested placed in 24 days of incarceration within those 24 days I spent $23 hours in a cell with one hour out. Officer Justin Gordon Brianna page and William Paterson created fictitious charges saying I was stealing utility electricity wow inside the McKnight center after hours.Update: The Police Department promotes Constitutional protection for groups and or corporate activities, yet chooses to practice acts of discrimination against Consitituants of the public. It has been settled beyond controversy, the expression of any/all principles, protections, and immunities the Constitution demands from the Fiduciary Duties and Obligations each and every Public Officers, Officials, including but limited too Employees of all titles. I am American Indian, by the actions of the police department of the campus continues to go against the very dream that Martin Luther King Jr., Frannie Lou Hammer, Malik El Hajj Shabazz a.k.a. Malcolm X, and other Civil Rights Leaders stand and stood for.On Feb 13, I will stand before Appointed Judge Diane Vaughan, former JAG Officer;I am under duress being forced to enter a proceeding where there is no Standing for a suit.

fantastic registrars office and student experience here.they dont even charge for a few official transcripts here. most other schools will charge

Apparently greek life here like to abuse animals. This is absolutely disgusting. As a college student myself, I am so deeply disturbed by this behavior. Thanks to Daily Mail, now we know how fraternities really operate here. If the school is as appalled as they say they are, they will shut this frat down. As someone from the midwest, I am so saddened by the death of this longhorn. I was raised never to kill an animal without a purpose to eat it or defend yourself. Farm stock should be respected. Not only was this animal tortured and abused, but it was left to rot as a joke! These kids are sick in the head, and need to be disciplined to the fullest extent both legally and academically. Anyone with a sound mind won't attend this college or donate a penny until these criminals are found and dealt with. People who abuse animals go on to abuse other humans, and thats a fact. Do better, OSU. This is disgraceful.

I regret to express my disappointment with my experience at Oklahoma State University. The academic support and resources fell short of expectations, with some faculty members lacking in responsiveness and assistance. Additionally, the campus infrastructure seemed in need of improvement, affecting the overall environment. The social scene was not as inclusive as hoped, and the university could benefit from more efforts to enhance diversity and inclusion. Overall, my time at OSU left me wanting more in terms of academic and social support.

Each year OSU Hosts Special Olympics. They are so much more than just sports! We love coming and spending 3 days here. Stillwater is a nice town and OSU is the very Best

Stillwater StrongI am so proud to be a part of a community that celebrates its' triumphs and sticks together in tragedy. I've seen Stillwater grow not only in population, business and industry but expand services into neighboring cities as well. Stillwater is a city that has displayed its' resilience after the Cowboys basketball plane crash in 2001 to the Oklahoma State University homecoming parade crash 2015. Stillwater has and continues to leave such great memories of what a hometown should be for me.

I am in love with this University, Its such a huge university with diverse culture and such warm hearted people all around. Truly a life changing experience it will be, if you happen to be in okstate. Go Pokes :)

Overwhelming breathtaking beauty. Architecture in variety from the start to finish. Your better off to take a guided tour so you can get more information (unless you know someone who has worked there or lived in Ponca City their entire life); go into more rooms of the mansion, but also the chapel & Marlins’ wife’s house as well. Walking the grounds can be quite beautiful as well; seeing the statues, the ducks and flowers. To bad they haven’t restored the pool to it’s former glory( that would be definitely a delight & beautiful area for a wedding and special occasion too! 😉

Beautiful!!! Loved it. Next time we will do the guided tour not the self guided.

Amazing home with an intriguing history. A must see. Been here several times and will return. Learn more each time I go. Notice some new detail I didn't see the time before.

Well kept. Friendly staff. Everything was nice and fancy, and there was a lot to tour. Something to do if your in town, and have free time. Interesting history there. Definitely going back when we go again to Ponca! Wish the gift shop had more, and of course there's a fee to tour the mansion. Enjoyed the experience.

This is a wonderful place to stop if you are in Ponca City for the day. Air Conditioned indoor fun about the history of the Oil Barrons of Oklahoma! You can look in each room of 40,000 square foot home built in the early 1900s that had working air conditioning at the time. Tours are available.

Beautiful former home of E. W. Marland and family and site of the Marland Estate. Now owned by the city of Ponca City, Oklahoma, it is preserved as a historic museum, landmark, tourist destination and event center.

Amazing place! Really enjoyed the tour and history!

Gorgeous 43,561 square foot mansion built for oil baron E. W. Marland. The house is well-maintained and the grounds are beautiful. The tour is extremely interesting. Hear about the house architecture as well as the tragic story of the family.

We visited the museum on a quiet day in May 2023. Because there were almost no other visitors on site, we were lucky that David, the Executive Director, could take the time to give us a fine guided tour with excellent explanations and exciting stories and we were also allowed to ask lots of questions. Well we were very interested :).So we had a great time with David, learned a lot and were very impressed! There we have had really luck.On this way a big thank you to David for this excellent Friday morning!The museum is very interesting in many ways. The life story of Mr. Marland and his family is remarkable and amazing (and also a little scary and sad), the building is technically as well as stylistically, optically and architecturally exciting, there is a lot to see and you can dive into the past with pleasure and let yourself be touched if you like.Now, yes, we had the best museum guide you could ever wish for. So we would recommend every visitor to take a tour! Really. The museum and its many exhibits and facilities do need their explanations and become all the more interesting. This information cannot be perceived in depth during a short unguided tour - unless you read up on the literature. But even if you go through briefly, it will be impressive for any visitor.About the content: A self-made multi-millionaire builds himself a huge villa with technology that was unique at the time (air conditioning, heating, elevators), international flair (he had craftsmen come from Italy, for example, etc.) and exciting, clever and very detailed architecture. However, the whole object is not dully ostentatious but impresses with a real feel-good atmosphere.The museum doesn't look that big from the outside, but it's huge inside.Our conclusion and recommendation: The museum is definitely always worth a short visit - but we strongly (!) recommend to take your time and enjoy this wonderful impressive museum for two hours during a museum tour.

What you will find if you ever tour Herculaneum, or the EW Marland Mansion, is that after people are comfortable and well-fed, additional wealth basically is poured into art. Lots of art. Big art, small art. I especially delight in small artful details, and am posting a few pics as examples, but just know that this place is packed with them. Almost anywhere you look, there's something interesting.The Petroleum Hall Of Fame resides on the bottom floor. I view it very differently than the two women who wandered in and commented, "A good old boys' club." They need to read Atlas Shrugged! One of the men on that wall employed my grandpa - he worked for Hughes Oil. Personally I would not be willing to make the sacrifices necessary for my picture to be on that wall, but I appreciate the way of life those guys made possible. EW Marland in particular seems to have been quite generous in funding hospitals and many other things that benefitted all Ponca City residents.Have you seen the large portrait of Lydie? Apparently the artist disliked her, so he painted a serpent in near her feet. But I can't decide if that's also the reason the angle of her leg is so wrong, or if it was just a lack of talent. Either way, I'm surprised the Marlands would hang that portrait. Maybe they never noticed.

We took our kids here as we saw the sign on I35 at first we said Ponca City ?? no thanks but we took a chance and wow this place is great, it seriously could of been transplanted from an old English countryside. The place is massive and has lots of interesting things to look at. Be careful of the stairs they are not for running or jumping. If you get there early in the day ask to see the secret tunnel !! and please buy souvenirs

This is probably one of the better old historical Mansions I have toured. The Tour guide was knowledgeable and informative. Highly recommend.

I absolutely LOVE working at the Marland Mansion for wedding events! We just did a styled shoot here a few weeks ago and it was a dream! Truly the most gorgeous and breathtaking venue. We had so much fun and the team here was a joy to work with!

A MUST-SEE Oklahoma landmark! The entire place is unbelievable, and likely only surpassed by the governor's mansion in OKC. I recommend a guided tour, but you can do self-tours as well. (same price) Everything from the floor to the ceiling to the exterior and the windows and light fixtures can only be described as stunning!! It's not expensive. Take plenty of pictures and share them with your friends. They will thank you and visit it themselves to see it in person.

We enjoyed the tour and learning the history of Marland Mansion. David and Kim were knowledgeable, helpful, and a delight to meet. Thank you for your hospitality!

Late family Christmas celebrated here (at the "cottage"). Lots of space for little ones to run and ride their bicycles and we had a beautiful view of the grounds and the lake. Many took the tour, but I did not. They reported that it was a little long, but enjoyable.

I spent a wonderful day at the Marland Mansion. The story of E W Marland is fascinating. Well worth the trip to Ponca City.

Nice Boyd gaming property. Lots of slots and table games. Nice Hotel and restaurants. Roulette and Blackjack are nice games that they have. Close to Witchita.

We had a great time, won some slots which is always fun. I do not like the smoking, wish they would separate this into completely different sections like other places I've been. Trying to have a good time and people are blowing smoke into your face isn't really what I'd call relaxing. The tin lizard was good, nothing too special. Wish the woodfire grill was open on Sundays.

Real fun place even on a Monday. Lots of nice people lots of people winning and we even took home a few hundred. Had a really nice time. I appreciate all the truck parking you have the lot is really nice. If I could of changed anything I would of liked to see a trash can out in the lot for the truckers

Amazing place to visit!Wonderful staff and very kind dealers. The facilities were wonderfully clean. The Non Smoking area is a nice plus, but the filtration on the main floor is just fine. We will be return customers on many occasions! First class facility!

My son and I visited today to play Blackjack. I'm a novice who's played only a few times.After about a dozen hands and being repeatedly and openly chastised, nonstop, by "Frau Schutzstaffel", for not being fast enough to suit her( Older German lady).....we packed it in.While ahead, it wasn't worth sitting at a table with a verbose, openly hostile dealer with issues. This was at the $15 table about 5pm.No excuse for this kind of misconduct.Most new players learn by making mistakes.Apparently there was zero accommodation.......she personally took all the joy out of the game.Everyone else sitting at the table was gracious and accommodating..... but one wants to be hammered on each and every miscue starting out.Hope this helps.

I understand that the "21 years or older" law to enter casinos in Kansas may not be a decision of Kansas Star Casino:This 1-star is purely how that information was given to me by the 2 guys doing security on the north entrance.Yes their job is security, but as a possible customer I'd still like a service/product that treats me nice. That is not the staff of Kansas Star Casino, not a good first impression and not a place Id refer people to stop at, on a trip through Kansas.

The atmosphere here is absolutely amazing. As well as slots, there are plenty of live tables like black jack, poker, roulette, and craps just to name a few.

This establishment has many of casinos in multiple of states. The most exotic place is Ameri Star. A very rustic and absolutely beautiful place. The last that I visited the Ameri Star you were not able to take photos. Maybe that has changed. Naturally every Casino wants you to leave broke. They are in the business of taking all of your money, have a gambling problem you need to get help. Limit your gambling and enjoy a few hours of gambling.

Enjoyed the stay at the Hotel. The nights I was there, unfortunately the games were pretty tight, but I still had fun.

A huge suprise out in the middle of nowhere, absolutely enjoyed ourselves in the Casino and Restaurant. Food and services were great. My favorite spot was the FanDuel area where I played a 3 game parlay and won. Felt pretty lucky in this fine establishment!!!

My husband and I are team drivers. We are so happy with the spacious parking here while doing our 34 hr reset.The Kansas Star Casino is very nice and clean. Multiple restaurants with deli, bar food or high end restaurant options. We’re very pleased that we gave this casino a try being on the road and unfamiliar with this area. We genuinely hope this review helps other drivers find this helpful, and give it a visit.

Beautiful and spacious casino. Machines seem cutting edge. But then you get hungry. The Philly was dry, and the tots were middle school tots. Still, next time, I'll give it another try.

We stayed in parking lot with an RV. We were very comfortable. It’s pretty quiet at night with security driving around occasionally. Went inside to play the slots…. Came out with a little extra money. Machines are not as noisy as some other Casinos, which made it comfortable for me. I could hear myself think & could talk with my husband without yelling over the machine noises.

We were heading back to Wichita and needed a restroom and a restaurant. Being a Tuesday night, things pretty quiet. The restrooms were very nice also very clean. We ate at the Lizard. I had the fish and chips, which was awesome. Not greasy and very crispy. She subbed the coleslaw for salad since I can’t eat dairy.My husband had the pound of prime rib. It came out perfect. Loved the atmosphere, the service, the food, and the price.

I'm a trucker and I had time to stop by and check it out.. this place is huge and I even got kinda lost in there a couple of times.. haha.. I really enjoyed myself and everyone was extremely helpful and polite.. I'm really glad they allow truck parking.. it's a really clean and comfortable casino..

Nice casino, had 3 restaurants to choose from and a great variety of games. Friendly staff, clean restrooms and clean gaming area. It is connected to the Hampton Inn for easy access to a very nice hotel.

I won 100 bucks within 20 minutes of being there on the penny machines. The staff was friendly, and drinks were reasonably priced. I enjoyed the chill vibe

We just stayed here while in town to see our friends. We had a great time and the hotel was fantastic. We were able to bring our two dogs with us here and the room was great. John went above and beyond for us and he really was a credit to this place’s customer service. We will be staying here again the next time we come.

On a work trip to Kansas, we stayed at there hotel, where we also ate dinner. Service was great the whole time. Nice down to earth employees.

This place has always been welcoming to me and I have never had any problems with their service. They have a pretty good mix of the old style slots with many newer slots as well. The machines seem to be fairly loose and you can have a profitable time if you play wisely. This casino is fun because even if you have a little to play on at least you can find a machine that will give you a chance to come up and walk away with more!

Very clean, drinks are strong, friendly staff. Variety of slot machines, nice restaurant and a pretty good vibe there. Won a few times but lost most. Of course 🤣

Nice, clean, quiet room. Made out great at casino!! Food at Tin Lizard was just okay, our server was nice. The drink servers on the casino floor were ALL super nice and helpful and fast!! Great time.

Seemed like most of what I saw noted it was copies or casts (meaning not real) like most documents and dinosaur bones. So much so I just quit checking. Nice enough exhibits but kind of scattered. I entered several exhibits from back to front. Maybe markings on the floor recommending a path to take? Only the presidents exhibits noted begin and end. War section from left to right was Vietnam, Korean, WWI, WWII. so didn't really flow.

This was a stop on a road trip for us and we loved it. It has a lot of stuff across three floors with a play area for kids on the third floor. We had a great time! It was also so affordable.

This is a great museum. What it lacks in size it makes up for in content. I loved the Egyptian and Roman segments. My son loved the fossils and dinosaurs. There are even real mummies and a shrunken head. Most of what i enjoyed was on the first floor. Second floor was mainly war related and not much on the third floor. Nice gift shop. It was well worth the visit

Lots to see. Very up with the feel of other museums of this type. 3 floors with an elevator. The kids loved the play area at the top floor. My husband and I want to come back without kids so we can read more on the exhibits. I've lived in Wichita for 35 years and had never been here. I had no idea it was such a neat place!

Wow, I had no idea what to expect when I decided to visit from out of town. There was a little bit of history for everyone from dinosaurs to American Presidents to past cultures. We visited for a few hours but one could spend days reading all the great signage and learning more. The gift shop offered some neat souvenirs so I picked something up for my daughter. I would love to visit again next time I’m in the area.

This place is amazing. The dinosaurs are from the area. The details and video of them putting the T-Rex together is awesome. They have a real piece of the Berlin Wall. As a teacher of ancient worlds, this museum had everything. Old Stone Age, domestication, Neolithic Era.. Ancient Egypt (a shrunken head, and two mummies and a canopic jar), Ancient Mesopotamia, Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. Coins from the time of Julius Caesar and more.They have a display of signatures of all of the presidents from Washington to #45. There are exhibits from

The museum has so many interesting artifacts. Be sure to give yourself plenty of time to look through it all. For a modest museum, it packs a lot in.

Enjoyed a leisurely stroll through the museum - not too busy on a Sunday afternoon! The dinosaur exhibit was by far my favorite but there are also extensive collections of war history, different regions and time periods, and such great information. Activities for kids throughout and a play area upstairs.

The kids and I had a lot of fun learning and doing the scavenger hunts together. Great place to visit in town on a rainy day. We used the Sunflower Summer app to enter, but we'll plan to come back again

We had a lot of fun walking through two of the three floors in this museum. We especially loved the first floor, which houses mummies, sarcophagi, dinosaur fossils and replicas, and more! If you are a war buff, there is a ton to see on the second floor, along with a small but interesting medieval collection. Would definitely recommend if you are in the area!

This is such a fun museum the kids loved all the things they could interact with. Things are displayed very nice not cluttered. Everything is written simple so adults and children can enjoy reading about the history. I suggest anyone with kids visit this museum!

A lot of history is covered under the roof of this three story building. The history of dinosaurs, Egyptians, world wars, and historical leaders are covered in a well laid out setting. There are a few interactive exhibits and a play area for kids.

We used the Sunflower Summer pass and felt blessed to finally get to see this amazing museum with over 9000 items on display.

For 2 people, it was 22 dollars to enter. The bathrooms were nice and clean, and they had an elevator inside. The parking outside was easy, but can be hard to find on a Saturday from what I'm told. There's no eating out drinking inside, and you need at least 2 full hours to see everything.They have some actual dinosaur fossils, mummies, a section of the Berlin wall, and so many other things. The volunteer staff is really nice.

Pretty cool place, packed full of historic peices. There are several peices that aren't permanent, so we got lucky to see a few really old documents. The mummies and shrunken heads are quite interesting, and I'd definitely recomend coming here, especially if you're studying the ancient Egyptians or WWII.(Good water, 7/10)

Great way to spend a couple hours. Exhibits from around the world, showing ancient history to modern historical events. Wheelchair accessible entrance, elevator for convenience, with handicap restrooms located on the second floor. Interesting items in the gift shop at the entrance.

We stopped here during our trip to Wichita recently, and are so glad we did! It was super cool, and educational! We had a lot of fun looking at some super cool stuff. Definitely recommend if you're in the area! Worth the stop if you're into history!

Dinosaurs section is top notch. Very well laid out super articulation and a amazing t-Rex specimen. Having the Rex next to its cousin is a great touch. The way they have displayed the evil looking monster fish (which gave me nightmares) is so cool. The ancient history area is very nice. Good flow and it made sense the way it was laid out. Egypt could use a bit of help with labels and lighting but still very well done. Nice paintings by the way with the mummies good work there. Second floor was not quite as polished as the first, however this so still a very good collection. Well worth the visit. I will say again though Parents control your brats!

Love the place, great artifacts and atmosphere. However, the lady at the front desk could have acted like she wanted to be there... instead of speaking low and fast like she was trying just to go through the motions.Couldn't hear half of what she said.Other than that, as long as you don't get the blonde lady in a pant suit, it will be a great ticket buying experience.Maybe she doesn't like cowboy hats, next time I'll show up without one.. you know, for science.However, this place is amazing. Amazing artifacts with lots of detail. Plus the gift shop has lots of neat items for sale.Also, who doesn't love dinosaurs?

Wonderful museum! Had all kinds of cool stuff. Even real mummies. (Not sure how I feel about that) I would recommend going.

Great museum! Go through at your own pace. Elevators and benches make it very accessible for everyone. From dinosaurs to war history, exhibits are varied and interesting. There's even a replica of the Resolute desk in the presidents exhibit. A little of everything so everyone can learn something new. Staff were very friendly. An enjoyable experience all around.

Three floors that take you through a tour of the earliest life on our planet, through nearly all of our different ages, including American and world wars that include important artifacts, while peppering in geology, commerce, literature, pop culture, and more.So much more than you would expect. Cool exhibits included mummies and shrunken heads, and respectful signs asking not to take pictures of actual human remains (so I didn't).A great take, indeed.

The museum was wonderful! Such a cool place. The sunflower summer app has been wonderful this year!
