Afternoon Tea at the General Crook House! The house is still decorated for Christmas and it is very festive! AARP sponsored this event and it was quite popular.

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.

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 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!

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.
