“This combination of 5 museums was a wonderful experience. The facility is very attractive and beautifully designed… The Center is celebrating their 100th anniversary this year. Congrats!” (Posted by Mary B, Denver, Colorado)

“…Five fabulous museums in one, filled with amazing history and artifacts about the Wild West and more. Could have spent days here, one day definitely isn’t enough to see and do everything, but don’t let that put you off – definitely worth a visit even if you only have one day to spare. Too many good things to review here, but if you are interested in Native American and Wild West history, just go, you won’t be disappointed…” (Posted by Shona106, Wishaw, UK)

“…This place is stellar. You could spend all day here. It’s huge. The nature displays are incomparable. The massive collection of art is western and wonderful. There is an interactive kiosk for making your own painting and emailing it to yourself that is pretty cool. All the artifacts and original costumes are amazing…Too much more to even mention! Worth it, worth it!” (Nancee M, Sanibel Island, Florida)

“I recall being in Cody, Wyoming, 49 years ago as a child, and this museum was a small but meaningful tribute to the Showman, who gave this town its name, along with having great western art. Now it is an incredible mix of five distinct museums, with something for the entire family. I had planned on spending a day here and thus I was richly rewarded. If you have the time, take one or more of the guided docent tours!” (clw52, Fort Collins, Colorado)

“The firearm collection here is amazing. We also attended 3 guided tours. All were expertly narrated by some very talented staff… We finished the day with an excellent dinner and music show that we purchased as a package. This is one of the most enjoyable stops we have done in all the years we’ve been taking vacations.” (FlyRC, Marshalltown, Iowa)
