Reviews
"The docent was excellent and shared vast knowledge of the area. The museum had many artifacts from the different cultures and experiences that filled the walls. From the native Americans that lived in the land to the Chinese that came to build the railroads. So many wonderful stories and history. Thank you"
"Cute little museum and would recommend going in. The docent (Judy) there when we visited was very loud and overbearing. She kept following us around and quizzing us. I couldn’t look in peace so we left. I appreciate her knowledge, but think it could be done in a better way."
"Most excellent collection of Truckee past. Small area for presentation. Remember the JAIL museum up the street a block away. Excellent presentation of Truckee Historical information. Thanks to all Historical volunteers for Excellent preservation."
"We enjoyed bringing our kids here on a Friday morning. We were lucky enough to talk to the head docent who answered so many of our questions about the area and wlked us through the displays. We have fallen in love with Truckee!"
"New Museum with well put together interactive displays! Definitely worth a stop :D"
