We passed this place many times on our way to Burlington. We finally took the time to check it out. This place is beyond amazing. Even if you are typically not into museums, this place has something for everyone. It's like 50 museums in one place. It's like exploring the back lot of a movie studio, only everything here is real. You will see art, sculptures, barns, trains, dolls, toys, hats, gardens, a covered bridge, church, school, ferry, lighthouse, merry-go-round, circus memorabilia and so much more. I could have spent all day in the doll exhibit. So creepy and awesome. Plan to spend hours here, if not a whole day. As a photographer, I was in absolute heaven.

We traveled from indiana to visit the museum. When we went for a tour today we were only charged $7.50 per guest. The tour went on for almost 2 hours! The tour guide was very knowledgeable! The items on display are priceless! Some of the irreplaceable items were a helicopter, cars, trucks, boats, motorcycles, and motorized bicycles. The museum also had huge bonus displays such as model trains and cars which were incredible! The museum catered to people with disabilities to include restrooms, and golf cart rides to the different museum buildings. It was also nice to see multiple seats strategically placed throughout the museum for people to sit and enjoy the exhibits. This was a great tour with a great admission fee! Must visit!
