We were very surprised by this museum. It is well organized and informative. Displays are interesting. Very clean. Friendly staff. Free admission, donations appreciated. If you’re in the area I recommend you visit the museum.

We were rambling along the streets of Oakland and stumbled across this cute museum. There is so much history and lots of exhibits. The gentleman running the place was very knowledgeable he filled us in on some of Oakland’s history and answered our many questions. The museum is run by volunteers so make sure you drop a few in the donation box. Enjoy!

Great little museum featuring 1800’s styles and articles. My friends and I enjoyed walking though it and admiring all of the original pieces.

I thoroughly enjoyed this small museum. Everything is very well done, clearly labeled and the exhibits are nicely presented. Everything is clean, which isn't always the case in very small museums! My favourite exhibit was the logging one. Logging is still an important part of Douglas county. The docent was friendly and non-intrusive. There is a donation box and I'd encourage visitors to contribute since this museum is not supported by tax dollars. Glad I stopped in.

This is a charming free museum with many different and tastefully displayed items supporting different work and lifestyle themes. We were expecting something much smaller, less organized and possibly dusty but were delighted to find just the opposite. We also appreciated that we were left on our own to read the interpretive signs with the volunteer nearby to answer any questions. We don't like it when a well-meaning volunteer launches into stories and you can't break away. I won't hesitate to go again and bring others.
