There were several little houses to explore and a blacksmith on-site making spoons. Outhouses, us military wagons, several items depicting pioneer life, a schoolhouse complete with non electronic games. My kids not only got an education but thoroughly enjoyed it. They did a scavenger hunt and got butterscotch suxkers.

Fun place to visit! Some of the guides are really good about explaining the history and stories.

This was actually really great. They gave out papers for a scavenger hunt. My kids were entertained the whole time! And they traded them in for suckers at the end. A lot of cool artifacts from the early settlers of Provo. Great place to take small kids.

Very cozy and authentic. Interesting stuff to check out.

Very nice volunteers and great stories. The buildings all had history behind them and hand on stuff for kids.

This interesting, free historical park has costumed interpreters. There are free games and activities. It was a pleasant place to visit. Our young children were finished exploring in about 30 minutes but they had lots of questions and it definitely made them think.One visit was enough, though.

It is a free fun a historical place to visit when there is nothing to do.

Super real, i love it

Amazing location to visit with friends and family. I visited with my husband. The services is quite well!!

Great place for Utah Co History.

It was Pioneer day (july 24). my family was apart of performing this day. My daughter meet Miss Provo and told her how to be a princess. We will be here next year too.

Im not sure why the newer review from 2016 isnt included. This site is wonderful and family first! You want to keep in mind that it is run and maintained completely by volunteers so dont expect slick or polished. This isnt Colonial Williamsburg!The site has a wealth of historical buildings and accessories to view close up,

A fantastic little place! So fun to see all the historical buildings and artifacts; really impressive. The volunteers are really nice, and theres a neat blacksmith demonstration area. Also a cute tiny store.

Great place to visit with the family and learn about Pioneer heritage. They also have story telling and fun activities for pioneer day and Christmas. Be sure to check it out!

The care the docents of this Pioneer Village give to guests is outstanding. There is a true feeling of respect for those who came before and the preservation of the buildings and the information given allow a person to immerse themselves in the experience.

Great family place. Runs on donations. About an hour to look around. Great history to look at

Great historical place. Lost of fun stuff to see from history.

Wonderful people there! And some really cool history!

Beautiful and charming place! Wonderful and free activity for families!

Great fun for kids. Not a big place, but we spent around 2 hours on pioneer day and certainly didnt see all of it (maybe half, but not in depth and we didnt go on any tours or workshops) The kids got lost in the pioneer games and toys and then the scavenger hunt. It was wonderful.

Ive taken my family here multiple times and the kids always have a great time. The people here do a great job taking is back in time and teaching us how things were done by the pioneers. We all come away having learned something and enjoying time well spent with family.

Lots of history in a condensed area- able to see a lit in a short amount of time as well as experience leather work and info from period hosts- kind of like Williamsburg or This is the Place (SLC)

This place almost always looks closed, but its actually open. Its just very quiet. If you cant get in, try the Daughters of Utah Pioneers Museum next door and they can often get someone to let you in and show you around. The village features houses, school and work buildings from the first Provo pioneer settlers. Its most popular on July 24, Pioneer Day, when volunteers will help you make crafts and demonstrate all kinds of pioneer skills. Definitely worth checking out.

For a quick fix of pioneer, this is a great place to visit to get a condensed version of the pricier, hotter, and more spread out This is The Place in SLC. If you go on an event day, there are lots of demos to watch. But do yourself a favor and visit on a day other than Pioneer Day when its hard to enjoy with the crowds.

Great place to learn the history of Provo and the pioneers. The volunteers are great and make for a fun experience!

I wish there was an option to add more stars. If you are a lover of history and can really appreciate the pioneer heritage you owe it to yourself to come here and check it out.

It was an awesome experience. You could really see the detail and crazy they put into everything there. It was great

Very fun! Tour is a little long (about 40 minutes), especially for younger kids, but there is a reward of fun, old fashioned toys and games to play at the very end.

Authentic Pioneer structures..well presented. Lots of history. Well worth a trip there. Only shortcoming is that they are not always open.

This place is great and extremely informative!

Better than reading a book.

Tour guides are great. Call them and set up a time. I brought my Cub Scouts and they did a scavenger hunt activity.

Kids loved it. Volunteers were nice and it was informative. Fun day out

Very informative, nice tour guide

Took my family to the Pioneer Day celebration and enjoyed the wonderful displays and exhibitions put on at the village! Planning on attending again next year!

Volunteers dress in pioneer clothing and lead tours that last roughly an hour. They love the village and are very knowledgable! A warm and memorable experience. Highly recommend.

Excellent place for visiting

Fun for the whole family.

It was a very interesting experience. I learned a lot of be things about an area where I have lived my whole life.

The staff at this attraction made me feel very unwelcome as soon as I mentioned that I was not LDS. A testament to the attitude of the church in general.

Very well kept

Try to go on a day when the blacksmith is there. The docents are very knowledgeable.

Took some of the grandkids to help them understand that it was not that long ago people lived this way. The people were great. The displays fantastic.

They have a scavenger hunt for kids which they loved. It is set up in a way that you can rush through or take your time and still enjoy yourself

Its cool to see how the pioneers lived and worked.

Loved it. Thank you for the water, and veges.

Cool place to stop and see some history! Right on the main road so its easy to access

You dont want to miss this historic spot.

Lots of fun for the kids, come when the blacksmith is working, its really cool!

Fun place!

Cute and adorable, great representation and authenticity.

Good place
