If you have kids that love dinosaurs, if you've ever seen Jurassic Park, if you just need to kill some time, the Dinosaur Museum is for you. There's a lot of information and displays packed into a relatively small museum. Actual bones, fossils, models of different species, displays about paleontology, graphics and history of the impact of dinosaurs on the entertainment industry means there's something for everyone. Perfect for the whole family and worth the price of admission! Free parking in the lot. Also, a great gift shop (always a plus.) Highly recommended. read more

Decent museum! Very interesting. Displays are well displayed. The curator is friendly and helpful!

This is a great stop! The exhibits are actually really cool. It's a small place and only cost $20 for our family of 4. Perfect place for us to stop right off the highway, everyone was able to use the restroom and stretch our legs then continue on our journey! read more

This place was so cool. So many fossils and life size dinosaurs to see and all the pre-historical ones as well. We spent over an hour here with multiple kids and they could all run around to different areas but all be within earshot distance. It wasn't crowded and the bathrooms were clean. There was a giant room with all of these old movie posters which was very cool. Had a great time exploring and reading everything and taking some great photos! read more

Quite fascinating. The explanation of the distribution of dinosaurs on Gondwana land was very thought provoking. After visiting the museum I could still remember this place which meant it made an impression on me. I usually despise these roadside attractions with a vengeance, on their more than unusually insipid and ghastly displays, but this Museum had substance. The dinosaur displays were quite convincing and I even took a few good pictures to remember them by. Hopefully I may be fortunate enough to make a return trip in the future. read more

Owners, paleontologists and artists Stephen and Sylvia Czerkas have created a professional, well crafted and curated museum. The displays are all well done, labeled and displayed in a manner that you would expect from a prominent museum. Skeletons, fossilized skin, dinosaur eggs, footprints, feathered dinosaurs, eggs and babies, beautiful realistic sculptures and state of the art graphics make the world of dinosaurs burst into reality. Some displays like the mummified Edmontosaurus cast can also be found in other museums like the Senckenburg Museum in Germany. There are also dinosaur movie posters, memorabilia and exhibits illustrating dinosaurs in popular culture. Open Monday-Saturday 9-5 from April 15-October 15, it represents an exceptional value and experience. Admission is $3.50 adults, $2.50 seniors and $2.00 for children. While you are in the Blanding, Utah area,The Edge of the Cedar Museum and State Park and Utah State University exhibit "Nations of the Four Corners" are also quality experiences. read more

A ton of fun to go, chock full of cool dino history and information, along with a massive pop culture display of old posters, props, movies etc. throughout time of dinosaur films. Plus plenty of bones, fossils, specimens, and more. Great for the family, a great way to spend a couple of hours and with a small but friendly gift shop. A quirky find in the small town of Blanding! read more

This place looks awesome! I can't wait to take my kids to check out all of the dinosaur stuff. We need more places like this in town. Very cool!! read more

We are here on a Saturday at 10:15 and the sign on the door states it should be open AND the website states they should be open - HOWEVER it is not open with no explanation and we have told 5 vehicles that have pulled up after us that the place appears to be closed. Update your website and your door if you are closed read more

Wow! This is the largest collection of feathered dinosaur paleontology exhibit I have ever seen. In addition, this museum, obviously repressed a lifetime of movie set advisement or dinosaur model/animatronics. This makes the experience very unique while studying the vast array of detailed and well researched exhibits. The fossils and bones you would expect to see are in abundance including mummified remains of Edmontosaurus or Dilophosaurus in addition to several others. Well researched tracks and stomping grounds in the region including casts of prints are wonderful to review. Gives you lots of ideas of where to visit from here while you are in the region. Absolutely fantastic. Ok, this is for the curators, the movie posters are AMAZING! I never imagined that dinosaurs were featured in so many films. Please, oh please offer this collection in your gift shop. I would have purchased the entire collection. Or just some t-shirts. It was amazing. Oh, wait, I already said that. I also particularly like the still photography exhibit. Hope you don't mind I am posting a picture of what you see through the lens. All in all, I definitely recommend this inexpensive stop on your journey. It is a destination in and of it self. But please plan for at least an hour. The research in the exhibits could be poured over for a week. Wonderful!! read more

Fun museum to check out when you need a break from your drive through this area. There is a lot more there than I expected. Prices are very reasonable. $5 for adults and $3 for kids. We had stopped earlier in Arizona and found a place with real dinosaur tracks so this place really kept the conversation going. My boys of 8, 5, and husband had a great time read more

Love this place. Visited this place almost 7 years ago and was amazing. I came back thinking it might be the same, still was, but they added a new attraction. Their sign says "new exhibit every year" but I think just has small additions. Still amazing. The best part is that it's never crowded, you can have the whole place to yourself. Also pretty heap admissions, $3.50 adults and less for kids and seniors. read more

Amazingly cool dinosaur museum. I admit I wasn't expecting much when I stopped (mainly to take a break from driving), but as soon as I walked in I was impressed with the quality of the exhibits, as well as the amount of material on display. The science is very up to date, too. I also enjoyed the room with the movie memorabilia. Great value in this just-off-the-main-road museum. A 'don't miss' stop between Moab and the Grand Canyon. read more

Talk to the staff, don't be afraid to ask questions, they're very informative! It is a pretty good size museum. There was an exhibit that had a display of birds with feathers, beautifully done. It took me a good hour, hour and a half to go through. I would revisit if I am in the area again. read more

Spotted this place while trying to find a restroom. Glad we did. We stopped in and enjoyed the exhibits. Cheap! A lot to see.

Didn't expect to enjoy this as much as I did. Really fun with the big dioramas, fossils and other related displays, some a little tongue in cheek. The kids should even get a kick as it's pretty colorful and eclectic. Not just a bunch of dusty fossils, though there were some impressive examples of those to be sure. read more
