Friendly greeting. Good digital tour on cell phone. Fun for history buffs.
Cute place and neat to experience the living village of days gone by. The tour was informative and cool to see the period actors at their trade.
My wife and I came for the Maple Festival in March 2019. The museum has a lot of promise and it is wonderful to see so many buildings from Western New York’s past preserved in one place. Definitely looking forward to what is next at the village!
This is a good museum if you know what to expect. I had the idea that this would be a village with dozens of buildings to see. This place has only 12 structures and of those, a few have little or no description. They had, for example, a blacksmith shop with no descriptions and no one inside to explain or demonstrate.
On the other hand the museum has a nice indoor museum with great displays of radio, the prohibition and a wonderful Erie Canal room that's great for kids.
