Now, that was a nice walk. The weather that day was great for a mini adventure. The area was well kept and totally felt safe. The history presented was very cool. Easy to read plaques explained the purpose of the equipment as well as the timelines. The historic buildings and bridges were near to see. Its wheelchair accessible and a smoothly asphalted path to walk. Great for all ages. Highly recommend!!
Small mining museum but very interesting. Nice picnic area, in the works, behind the museum. There are 3 or 4 walking bridges across the fast running creek over to the picnic tables plus a newly made blacktop walking, running, or biking trail that leads to the Raleys Shopping Center. It will be really nice when its all finished. Ive been there several times and have only seen one maybe two people go by while Ive been there. I would recommend seeing this mining museum and picnic area.
Very interesting collection of mining artifacts. The walk along the creek is delightful.
Very child friendly. Bring quarters for the pelton wheel!
Amazing place, took all 4 of my kids and they loved it. The tour was awesome and the people were very welcoming and friendly!
Small but very cool museum. I especially liked. The working pelton wheel.
Very cool place and lots of history. This whole area is so rich in California history so if youre a nerd like me its the place to be ;)
Nice outdoor history museum walking tour.
We stop by just to look around at the old gold mining equipment. When we entered inside the actual building we was totally amazed. Most of the equipment in side worked and some where fired up just for us we where the only people in there total of five. The man inside wish I caught his name knew everything about all aspects of the gold mining days. Highly recommended.
No tables or chairs. Lovely setting but no access to water. We were there while museum was open.
I think the mining history is really interesting.
Took my grandson we loved it .Many interesting things to see and learn.
This is a great museum! Lots of history !! Kid friendly
Full of Gold Country history. Definently a were here, lets go see stop for out of towners. Local fisherman fish off the bridge over Wolf Creek and always fun to talk to. Great rest stop for travelers and perfect location to meet up with friends. Its safe to park there for a few hours if you are meeting people. The museum is straight out of a Pzint Your Wagon scene. Always worth stopping at. Handicap accessible and kids will love it.
Small museum packed with great exhibits and working mining machinery.
Great history. Beautiful.
Good place to look at the old gold mining tools
Cool spot has picnic tables and a creek that runs by it.
It was closed unfortunately; but the mining equipment set around the entranceway was neat to experience.
Nice museum and grounds, love the building itself and the grounds. I believe its haunted
Very cool... gotta check it out!!!
This park is a fantastic step back in history. Everytime were in town we try to stop by and walk the grounds. (Dogs are welcome)
Interesting exhibit of water wheels, mining history, and minerals. Probably best for adults or older kids. Nice park setting with picnic tables across the bridge. Cool inside the store building.
Only looked at the outdoor portion, as the indoor portion was closed for the winter. Super cool looking at all the mining stuff!
Lots of working displays of early hard rock gold mining. Great for the whole family.
A great display of both water powered pelton wheels and other mining equipment from about 1900
Very informative, enthusiastic and friendly staff.
My favorite place and great for the whole family
