2. Seeley Lake Historical Museum
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 2 reviews
The Seeley Lake Historical Museum was built in the winter 1929-30 as a horse barn on the Double Arrow Ranch where the roof collapsed during the 100-year snow of 1996-97. The barn was moved about a half mile from its original location and first reopened the barn doors in 2001 after it had been salvaged, dismantled and rebuilt Lincoln-log style. The old barn continues to serve the needs of its surroundings, recalling the past while looking to the future of the Seeley Lake Area. Seven double size (two horse) stalls are themed displays about our local cultural and natural resources. Each stall, named after a team of horses which had occupied it, brings back memories for some and tweaks imagination for for others. Display themes include Joe Waldbillig Pioneer Display, Norman Maclean fire and fish display., The Big Burn fire of 1910, Cabin Fever Cures, Local business history display, Old Time Logging, and Wilderness Epicenter. The outside grounds have additional displays.

The Chamber office has a lot of information about the history of Anaconda & the office is filled with great old photos. The summer bus tour is excellent. The drivers are very knowledgable about the history of the town and they take you to see many buildings and sights.

The folks here were very nice, even after being asked the question, "where are the restrooms?" about a zillion times a day. The CofC is right in amongst the businesses near the north gate of Yellowstone, and they have the only public restroom available. It was clean and they do have quite a bit of information available about Gardiner in their visitors center area.

Reviewed By parksvisitor - Maple Grove, United States
The visitor center and the park are almost two different experiences. The displays of the various fossils are extremely well done, especially for a state park. If you are a fossil/dinosaur person, this is a great stop. The small gift shop offers a nice selection of souvenirs too. Getting through Glendive to and from the park can be a struggle as it seems they skimped on road signs a bit. We definitely used our navigation app.

This is a much smaller visitor center than I expected given the size of the park. That being said, there is a lot of information available and definately worth a stop especially if you are entering the park from the west side. You can gather a great deal of information from the displays just outside of the visitor center, including up to date parking information. Save yourself the headache and check the parking and if it's full at Logan Pass, take the shuttle from here. Rangers and volunteers are avaialble to answer your questions and there is a small book store operated by the Glacier Conservancy. It does get quite busy here and can be crowded inside.
