Where else are you going to see dinosaurs, mummys, and a handwritten letter by Elizabeth I? I really enjoyed walking around, exploring, and I know my kiddo did as well. It's in an old building downtown and has loads of charm everywhere you look. 4/5 stars because I thought the kids play area was a bit of a letdown - it felt a bit dirty and neglected. There also isn't a cafe, which I think would be a fun addition if they ever plan on expanding or remodeling. The exhibits were wonderful though, and I thought for the price it was a great deal. Overall I'd for sure go back and if you're the kind of person that enjoys something off the beaten path, or has a love for old stories and a solid diorama, this is the place for you.

Loved the furniture and furnishings, and the Oklahoma A&M antique pennants. There was a chair full of dolls, our forte', but they were not the Drummonds, but rather the guides. The snack sets display was also the guides personal collection...and we were a bit bummed by its limit, but they had recently acquired a family trunk and so display space was limited. The pros...great history, personable and knowledgeable guide. The cons...not a place for littles...nothing for them to touch. Steep staircase, and the house needs some continuing maintenance and repair. Overall, a great visit for us, because we are into antiques...we plan on going back and visiting again!!

We were warmly welcomed by Melissa who gave us a brief run down of the place. This place is a true museum with a lot of history of the town of Blackwell and its citizens. This place appears to have alot of things donated by local people who gave things that were a part of their lives or occupation. There are lots of items from numerous wars including World War one and two for sure. Lots of household items that were once used. Forgot to mention that is a hands on museum. Many items can be touched gently. Good luck on your adventure here. We hope to come back again some day when we have more time to look around. Be prepared to spend at least 2 hours here.

It is an open and interesting place for both adults and children. It is a perfect place for travelers to take a break. Opened just this month is an in-depth exhibit "F5 in 1955" commemorating the 1955 Blackwell-Udall, Ks tornadoes. The exhibit features personal stories, video presentations and a tornado simulator.

It's a shame this place doesn't top many Oklahoma "to-do" lists. It appeared online after some deep digging of things we could do when en route to the Great Salt Plains. In the end, turns out we could've solely made a day trip around this place and it would've been a summer weekend well spent. Inside you'll find taxidermy, saddles, movie memorabilia, old dolls (only vaguely creepy) and a host of other artifacts. Even fossilized dinosaur poop (or so they say). The huge building is also home to a slew of western-themed "movie sets" which the owners use for their own productions, and which the public is free to explore on off days. Best of all is when you get to talking with the owners. They've got a wealth of information if you take a moment to chat. They've got rollicking tales from their old movie shoots- and best of all a heap of John Wilkes Booth conspiracy theories linked to the town of Enid and stemming from their days working on the crew of the "Unsolved Mysteries" series. You'll leave this place feeling a huge sense of affection for the great state of Oklahoma and the wonderfully quirky folks who inhabit it.

Big art, small art. I especially delight in small artful details, and am posting a few pics as examples. Just know that this place is packed with them. Almost anywhere you look, there's something interesting. The Petroleum Hall Of Fame resides on the bottom floor. I view it very differently than the two women who wandered in and commented, "A good old boys' club." They need to read Atlas Shrugged! One of the men on that wall employed my grandpa - he worked for Hughes Oil. Personally I would not be willing to make the sacrifices necessary for my picture to be on that wall, but I appreciate the way of life those guys made possible. EW Marland in particular seems to have been quite generous in funding hospitals and many other things that benefitted all Ponca City residents. Have you seen the large portrait of Lydie? Apparently the artist disliked her, so he painted a serpent in near her feet. But I can't decide if that's also the reason the angle of her leg is so wrong, or if it was just a lack of talent. Either way, I'm surprised the Marlands would hang that portrait. Maybe they never noticed.
