Okanogan County Historical Museum

This was hands down one of the best museums I've ever been to. They have the not only the entire county's history laid out with multitudes of large displays but the whole regions as well. Step out back and there is an entire re created old town strip with everything from an old saloon, store front, barber, blacksmith, post office, and even an apple workshop among many other old pieces of equipment used to to just about everything. Many very old vehicles on display as well that could even be viewed without paying the 2$ admission per adult (kids under 15 free). And for a bonus they have the best display of older firetrucks I have ever seen. 4 different full size real trucks that look like they all run and all the history on them. Definitely a must stop and very worth it.

Free to the public. Donations requested. Many interesting historical items inside and a "ghost town" of old buildings outside.

Worth stopping if you have even the slightest curiosity about the history of the region. Items on display range from thimbles to wagons to entire houses! Plus it's fun chatting with the volunteers...

Packed with amazing stuff and the Best information. And with just a friendly donation. It could take ALL day. Lol

Outstanding museum and research center. The staff was incredibly helpful and generous with their time as we researched family history. They are passionate about the history of the region and skilled in the archiving of documents, news articles, and photos. There are so many fascinating people and colorful stories to tell in Okanogan County!

well curated history of the county
many facets are covered
easily spent 2 hours here, could have spent more time too
it's free, you can leave a donation if you wish
on a hot day, it was a good way to stay cool too

I totally loved it. I could have spent more time here, probably hours! So much history, so tastefully put together and arranged.

We were there when they were closed. But you can see some things outside

One of the best local museums that I've been to. Definitely worth a visit. They have a large collection of artifacts also they have several historical House's.

Loaded with local history. Of you consider yourself a historian of sorts or you are very interested in history let them know and they can always utilize new people to join the historical society.

Amazing museum. So much to see and things you won't see anywhere else.

Very well laid out. All displays were great. Loved it!

Interesting museum. Inexpensive entry fee.. lots of artifacts and historical information on this part of Washington.
