One of the absolute best pioneer-era museums in the United States, the General Crook House is a historic institution with special features and exhibits operated by the Douglas County Historical Society. I highly recommend it to any fan of history.
So much history, fun for entire family. Beautifully restored and maintained. Feels like youre stepping back in time. Staff friendly and helpful. Would recommend the Fort Omaha walking tour to anyone in, around, or simply passing through Omaha NE.
Will be having our wedding ceremony here. Cant wait to see it in full bloom!! Went a few weeks ago to look around and this place is absolutely perfect for our ceremony! Roxanne has also been amazing through the process!
Interesting building. History abounds.They are open to special venues.
Great social with good friends then lunch at the Sage Bistro
First and second floor nicely restored to 1870s. Basement displays called Straight Out of Omaha is very informative.
Our ceremony was here, and it was beautiful! The staff amazing and very helpful. Everything was amazing
What a hidden jewel on Omahas early history
Unlike other historic homes, the General Crook house allows you to sit in the furniture and touch some of the items in the home unless specifically marked. The lady that greeted us was very nice and knowledgeable about the houses history.
It was closed. I had asked if it would be closed on Monday. I made the mistake of not saying Memorial Day
Great place to learn about history.
Interesting small historic venue. Great staff. Low entry fee, I think $5. Elevator to second floor and basement.
It was a cool place but $ 6.00 to get in
Very interesting place full of unique items
It may be a small museum, but you should stop by and hear the history of our town. Every year there is a different exhibit, on top of the interesting regular displays. Ask about the wallpaper!
Very, very educational and fun.
Interesting enough. All self-led tours. Half of the audio guides didnt work, so we had one person in our group listen and repeat everything she heard out loud.
So awesome and I interesting!
Love this place
Everyone needs to see this.
Great visiting
This place is a big part of my memories about My childhood neighborhood
