This was the coolest little town. It has a one room schoolhouse, a blacksmith, livestock, and several other neat buildings with employees in time period clothing. Everyone is nice and informative. It was super affordable, and the gifts shop gifts are so cute.
What an experience! It feels like you stepped back into 1855. We attended the Independence Day celebration and the people in each of the stops were fantastic!

A spread out area dedicated to capturing the essence of 1855. Walking up the gravel road you see wooden fences with heritage live stock, homes that are from Missouri built in the time period, buildings for the mercantile the black smith, …
Excellent activity any time of year for kids and adults. The Fall Festival was wonderful with music, crafts, vendors, and good food. This historic village is a state treasure.
I like this place for several reasons. It is quiet and off the beaten path. Most of the time there is hardly anyone there, so if you like photography there is rarely anyone around to muck up your shots. It’s all pretty carefully done, and …
