What visitors say
Place like this are some of the best tours! Small, personal and very interesting as you get stories that are not well known. Bob Norman was an incredible guide! He played us a 100 year old record on a 1905 Edison windup record player!!…
Staff easy to work with. Many possibilities for events. My original post was from 2 years ago. It was a 5 star. Although I do think the location in back of the museum has many great potentials for events, it saddens me to see it is not…
Fantastic museum to learn about the early history of south Florida and the original pioneers who settled the area Sharon is great!
