Miracle of America Museum

It was a lot fun visiting here! There was so much to see and it felt like we only scratched the surface. Most of the exhibits were very well organized although there were a few that were less cohesive.
Would love to come back again!

This has been the best museum I've ever been to. We just spent 4 and a 1/2 hours exploring and were so excited to be there. Alot of American history and interactive, we got to sit in alot of vehicles and ring bells and all sorts! I can't recommend this enough, this would have to be at the top of my favourite days we've had in America & Canada (in 8 months) and we nearly drive straight past it and missed it. So much stuff but it's all so cool and interesting and so many different exhibitions. Some of my favourites were the old car sheds, the diner, the fur shed, the army vehicles. There's so much to see and for all of $10usd ea. The owners were greeting people and were genuinely interested in us. Thank you for creating this place, it looks like a lot of handwork, effort, time and money has gone into this Museum!

We have driven past the museum so many times, but never when it was open! Today it was! My husband (a history buff) was so excited and loved sharing and showing our son all the different memorabilia. Now, touring the inside of the building with a 3 year old....not a good time, but once we got outside...it was a new world! Both my kids loved it, my husband loved it and he is already planning to go back without the kids! Lol

Not everyone visit this place when traveling to Montana, but i must say this is a DO NOT MISS spot. This place is 100 times better than any famous American history museum. Ill be making a few social media videos about this place because i really want everyone to know more about it. It deserves more relevance. Worth every penny and i only regret not having a few more hours to spend here. Definitely an important stop for anyone traveling between Bozeman and Glacier National Park

This place is amazing. What I post is a miniscule amount of what this place has. Definitely worth a full day. They also demo much of the equipment. Great people working there.

Hands down my favorite museum outside of the Wright Patterson. Obviously comparing the two is out of the question, but the fact remains; this is my second favorite of all time. The admission price is a bargain as well. I found myself throwing money in the donation bins out of sheer thankfulness of keeping so many awesome things from becoming scrap.

The Miracle Of America has more rare items outside in the dirt than some museums have on display. Although many displays are crude, or hastily put together, do not mistake that for second class. The sheer number of items simply could not be properly displayed. While the displays could have been condensed and the mishmash avoided, that would have meant never seeing some of the neatest artifacts of our history. These "extras" are normally locked away in storage. However, that misses the point. I WANT to see 2-3 versions of the same piece, in different states of use and abuse out in the open. I do NOT want to only see single, perfectly restored, versions behind glass and under blinding lights. The rawness shows the real history of the items. That smell, some may find as unappealing, is just another sensory input to bring me back to the time periods where these items were born. Each fleck of paint missing a story unto itself.

Anyone that is enthusiastic about anything mechanical, as I am, you will have the time of your life finding all the seemingly forgotten treasures in every exhibit. I, more than a dozen times, found myself gasping at the sight of something so rare I had only ever read about it. Eagle eyes will be rewarded with many one-of-a-kind treasures. Give yourself several hours to take a fraction of all of it in.

Surprisingly large museum. I have been there many times and I always find new things. Every inch has some hidden or not so hidden historical treasure.
I helped for a handful of years in the blacksmith shop for the living history days. That's always a good time.

After glacier national park and Flathead lake this museum was ranked high on our must see for our Montana trip. It was a wonderful way to spend the day. In one day it's impossible to see the entire museum but we only had a week. Thousands of great old items and wonderful metal art . Spend some time, make a donation. This place should live on forever. The amount of love and work that went into building it and continues to keep it going is astounding. 5 stars, the best. Don't miss it.

Fantastic place to visit and see all the historical machines that built this great country. Absolutely amazing place you can’t see it all in one day so we will be back

This is an amazing museum of history, all aspects of American vintage, World War 1, 2 and Vietnam planes, vehicles etc. This is a must do if you enjoy Museums. Cost $10. for adults. Easy access. Old cars, motorcycles, harvesting equipment, The Paul Bunyan ferry, eclectic pieces, to many objects to list. Just go and spend a few hours.

This is by far the best museum I have ever visited, and I've been to a lot. Its not as polished as some, but it has its own flavor and you can't beat how interractive you can be with it. There is something for everyone, and the sheer diversity of what you can find is staggering. You can stay there for hours and you'll still only really get a rudimentary vibe for everything. I spent way too much time dinking around in the little UFO play area. Do not miss all the interractive gizmos there. I loved it. 10 bucks for an adult made me feel like a highway robber by the time I'd left

Very unique museum. If you want to see the whole place you need several hours. We were short on time but really enjoyed seeing everything we could fit in. The owners are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the things in their museum.

This place is filled with so much history!! Worth the few buck we spent. Plan on making a day of it and pack a lunch (lots of places for a picnic) for a family of 5 it was like 30 $ (worth it) there are litterly thousands of different things to look at. From cars, planes, helicopters, motorcycles, clothes, toys. Ill post pics too. This place looks like a museum on steroids. My little history buffs loved it.

Definitely worth the stop!! The exhibits kept going and going. There is something for everyone here. Can’t believe the collection he has. We spent a couple hours and could’ve spent more. Appreciated that he let our well-behaved pup to come in with us for a small fee, since it was near 100 out. If you are in the area, I would recommend stopping and checking it out!

Awesome place! So much to see. Make sure you leave enough time to spend plenty of time at the outside exhibits.

I really loved this museum, I had been in some museums but definitely this one is the best. There is a lot of history and old buildings, antique cars to see. I enjoyed it!

I was absolutely amazed by the amount of stuff this museum has on display. 40 buildings with everything you can imagine from the past. Definitely a must see and inexpensive to get in. I added 50 pictures. I took about 200.

An interesting place that didn't feature on our go-to places until we drove past it. To me, it didn't even matter how accurate the information here is, it was just a thing... seeing so much "stuff" from the past. UFOs? Aliens autopsy? A bunch of very funny "stuff", lovely "stuff", history and everything else. There is just so much "stuff". The interactive green ovals are a neat addition.
If you find yourself in Polson or close by, go there go there for a little break.

Well i have been there three times. Any time spent there is going to be amazing. We spent multiple hours there each time. The museum is so deep and dense that you will probably be surprised at how much you miss when you go back . Small children will have fun with some hands on stuff. Adults who are gear heads, history buffs, or have any kind of outdoor hobbies will be gobsmacked by the sheer volume of EVERYTHING. The website will give you an idea. But one example is native artifacts that were ethically sourced including a headdress that is amazing. The motorcycle collection is facinating and contains bikes i have never seen anywhere else. Vegas may have something similar but not the variety.

I don’t believe you can do this justice with out multiple trips.
I don’t know of a better collection of American artifacts west of the smithsonian

A must see if you're in the area! Something interesting for everyone in the museum.
