Very nice small yet unique museum honoring the historical elements and people who existed throughout the centuries on Manotoulin . It is a great 1st stop to learn about the generational influence on the island. Names and locations then give reference to historical events in these places. Enjoyed the artifacts and personal items connecting the past to the present.The smaller cottages were also unique as I felt like I entered a genuine home from centuries ago...even smelled like it was from that era lol. Amazing place and lady at the front was very friendly. A must visit!!

We enjoyed ourselves here and it was the only one of the 4 museums we tried to see that was open on Saturday.

A fantastic country museum with lots of artifacts and exhibits from the local area. It’s the location of a Paleo-Indian archaeological site dated from 12,000 years ago. It also has displays of everyday life from the early 19th century. Be sure to check out the little story about President F.D. Roosevelt’s visit to the area during World War II and the story of the Dodge Brothers heir who died under suspicious circumstances in the area. Give yourself a couple of hours to see everything! Thank you!

Good place to spend a couple of hours Definitely join the guiding tour if availableVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes

Nice little old houses

Nice small museum. Almost all the items are donated by locals, it is really fun to look at them, but do not expect anything extraordinary.

Very good displays illustrating the European history of the Eastern Manitoulin Island area. Excellent display describing a 10,000-year old quartzite quarry used by Aboriginal people after the last ice age. The out-buildings contain some historical treasures as well A must see if you are in the area.

Quiet here .... not much to 'wow' you. It's the archeological dig site where one would actually like to visit.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
