August 24, 2026 - Winslow, AZ…read more How can you pass up a chance to stand on the edge of one of the best-preserved large impact craters on Earth? If you're in the area, definitely stop. The crater is impressive, but the Discovery Center & Space Museum is worth the visit, too. It's packed with informative, interactive exhibits, plus a 4D movie that's definitely geared toward kids--but we enjoyed it anyway. There's also a movie about the mystery of the crater. We didn't have time to check out the dining area, but it looked like a great spot to relax and grab a bite or drink. Traveling with an RV? There's a parking lot for large RVs. They also have individual outdoor kennels for pets ($17 per pet). We were a little surprised by the entrance price at first, but after seeing everything included, we thought the $27 senior rate was very was actually pretty reasonable. Lots to see and do, and definitely worth the visit.

My family and I were doing a West Coast road trip and the last leg of the trip had us coming…read morethrough Arizona. As soon as I saw this was on our route, I had to make it happen. It is located just a short distance from Flagstaff and right off the interstate in Winslow, AZ. It was a random weekday when we came so there wasn't a huge crowd and parking was readily available. We also waited to get our tickets once we arrived. I subtract a point for the cost of general admission. It's pretty steep at about 29 dollars for an adult. This gets you access to I believe all of the attractions on site. Walking in, you immediately get to see the Holsinger Meteorite which doesn't look insanely big, but it weighs in at almost a ton. Most of the rest of the meteor dissipated upon impact. The impact created is what you came here to see, the meteor crater. It's definitely very cool to see something like this in person because the only other thing I've ever seen about meteor and craters were in books or movies. The crater is almost a mile wide and 750 deep. You gotta see it to believe it. They have multiple lookout points around the crater. Keep in mind, if you come in the summer like us, you're going to get the hot, dessert heart with not lots of shade. They have telescopes if you want to get a better look. There is also an indoor observation area in the Discovery Center. They also have guided tours if you want to walk to walk the rim of the crater. I believe there also also opportunities on certain days to hike the meteor floor. There are also things to see inside. They have the Blast Zone for interactive fun for the kids. There is a museum inside with all kinds of cool information about the meteor and space things. If you want to get off your feet for a little bit, they have a theater that plays a very informative film about the history of Meteor Crater. One of my favorite parts was the 4D theater. It was cheesy, but fun. Another cool thing they have here is an actual Apollo 11 space capsule used for training the likes of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin when they trained at the Meteor Crater. I love museums and things like this alot and will always stop when nearby. This will most likely be a one and done for me, but I highly suggest stopping by to see it atleast once in your life.

This was our first time visiting the museum, and the main reason we came was for the Hubble-Joe rug…read moreexhibit, which was simply amazing, along with the Licher Collection of Historic Navajo Weavings. In addition, the pieces on display by John Suttman, are beautiful, quirky, and entertaining! John's work can be seen throughout the La Posada and AMM, from the fused glass lanterns, ornate gates, and Turquoise Room Bar, to the sculptural winch used to display the large Hubble-Joe rug. Built in the 1930 Depot at the La Posada Hotel, the AMM is small yet fulfilling, with lots of history! There are incredible collections that the museum has gathered with the Winslow Arts Trust. Lots of history and items in regards to Fred Harvey, the Harvey Girls, Mary Coulter, the La Posada, and Winslow's rich cultural history. There are future plans for a sculpture garden, renovation of the 502 Railcar and the Turrell trailer, which are on the premises. We can't wait to see the completion of these exhibits! Danielle was so warm, welcoming, and full of information for visitors. The museum is currently open seven days a week from 9 AM to 5 PM and admission is just $5 (Winslow residents, college students, and Native Americans get in free with proper ID.) They also accept donations on their website, and currently Allan and Tina will match all gifts! Truly, a wonderful experience, and we cannot wait till our next visit! Our out-of-town visitors loved it as well!

It's part visitor center and part museum, with maps and information about the area, plus the old sheriff's office and historic jail cells that you can check out. Even the bathrooms are inside the old sheriff's office, which made for a pretty memorable Route 66 bathroom stop! For anyone collecting stamps along Route 66 or during their travels, bring your stamp book! They have several stamps available, including a Route 66 stamp, a courthouse stamp, and a few others. The best little surprise was that they give visitors a complimentary piece of petrified wood. We thought that was such a cool souvenir to take with us, especially while traveling through this part of Arizona. A really fun, quirky, historic, and FREE stop along Route 66. Definitely worth pulling over for, and consider leaving a donation to help support the museum!

This is truly, a hidden gem! You cannot access this petroglyph site and area on your own. You need…read moreto make a reservation in advance, with the tour guide for the City of Holbrook. More information is available on the City of Holbrook website under "parks". Currently, the tour guide is Darlene, a Rock Symbols Researcher, and she can be reached at 928-241-1324. She is fundamental in the preservation of this site. I met Darlene at the golf course clubhouse, which is at the end of Gold Course Rd. There you sign a waiver, and the fee for the tour is $25 cash per person. Make sure you have cash with you, as there is not an ATM on site. The city of Holbrook website does not explain a lot of this, so, when you speak with your tour guide, make sure all of your questions are answered prior to your visit. From the golf course, you follow Darlene in your vehicle on dirt roads, so a vehicle that's possible on a fairly decent dirt road, is needed. These roads do have locked gates, so do not try to access on your own. If you have time, she will take you around the birding pond, and then to the petroglyph site. For the petroglyph site, make sure you are wearing decent hiking boots/shoes, as the trails are challenging with rock-climbing, and pants, as there are shrubs that can scratch you. Also, wear sunscreen, bring an adequate amount of water, a snack, some TP or a napkin in case you need to pee pee, and I would recommend a hat and binoculars, as some of the glyphs are up high. Many of these Anasazi glyphs are in wonderful shape and from different time periods. My tour guide, Darlene, was just amazing in pointing out the glyphs, describing what they possibly mean, and the history of the property. Darlene also spoke of her documentation of these glyphs, as well as others, as there is really no way to preserve them. There is very little vandalism at this site, which is a plus! My experience on this Earth Day, was so educational, peaceful, and truly enjoyable! The Anasazi had it right, leave no footprint behind unless they're petroglyphs!

Since we moved to Arizona I have developed several new interests, and one of them is petroglyphs…read more So My Lady decided she would take me here for my birthday. Rock Art Ranch is way out in the country, on a dirt road between Winslow and Holbrook, Arizona, The dust from the road completely covered our car before we got to the ranch, and we washed the car the next day in Winslow. It was May, and we encountered quite a few cattle and calves on the way to the ranch and back. It is actually a 5000-acre working ranch, and we had to make reservations and pay for the tour with cash. The owners were real cowboys, and they escorted us on the tour personally. Three areas of interest were featured on the tour. The first was the ranch complex, which included a large converted barn, some old equipment including wagons and camp gear, a preserved bunkhouse, and a memorial rock garden outside the barn. The second was an area out in the wilds that included some Native American hogans and an archaeological site of a 14th-Century Puebloan village. The third was the area the ranch is famous for: petroglyphs. They are found in a canyon on the Chevelon Creek, a tributary of the Little Colorado River. A thousand feet away you wouldn't notice the canyon, but once you are there it's a treat. The Chevelon Canyon cuts into the plain for a depth of several hundred feet. There is a picnic area on a platform house that overlooks the canyon, with plenty of shade. It's a steep descent to the creek, down steps and a path cut into the sandstone walls. On those walls are thousands of carvings made by men and women that go back thousands of years, and that is what the Rock Art Ranch is really all about. Take a lunch, you can't buy one at the ranch. Take plenty of water, the 100-degree heat will get to you, especially when you realize you have to climb back up to the platform shelter. Don't worry about restrooms, there is a charming, clean outhouse up the hill from the platform shelter. Do have a look at other sites on the web to see what you're getting into. There is so much to explore, we'll go back some day and pick up where we left off.

I grew up in Holbrook so this is the post I'm a member of. The bar itself is down a flight of…read morestairs also know as "the foxhole." It's a clean bar with alot of military decor, I even have a sign from my deployment to Iraq that I donated hanging on the wall. The beer selection is not extensive, but it's a small town. The staff is always friendly and the people in the bar are mostly locals. They do not sell food, but the prices for drinks are great, again small town. The upstairs is a big dance floor with another bar which is only used during events like weddings and dances, It is located right next to the cemetery and 99% of the time after a military funeral the legion will be packed and have a pot luck. If your a member I highly recommend stopping in for a beer and meeting the local veterans.
