This review is way overdue. My family and I visited this fantastic museum back in March 2022 and we all certainly had an awesome experience! Lucas Todd was extremely well versed on every aspect of the museum. He is very nice and professional and he took his time explaining and answering all our questions. We definitely ended the tour so much better educated on fossils. Thank you Lucas for taking the time to enlighten all of us. An unforgettable experience we all loved!

Wonderful collection of fossils with a docent~led tour. Check admission price beforehand because it’s on the high side for the size of the museum. However, you will have someone to guide you through and answer your questions.
