The Gardner is a great place to see relics, antiques and tools from the Choctaw Indians. The…read moreChoctaws were moved from Mississippi to Oklahoma on the Trail of Tears and here you can find the history and the relics. The (remains of ) 2000 year old Cypress Tree is very cool to see. Gives a bit of perspective. It's worth the stop to meet the owners and to learn about the beginning of Oklahoma as a state, and the Choctaw Indians and the history of the removal. The museum is located near the Mountain Fork River, so if you are planning a float trip, you can stop by the museum before you hit the water.

Its hard to find (your GPS may lead you to the wrong place - I updated the location on Yelp so it…read moremay lead you correctly), and if you go during the summer its going to be hot, but its worth it. I came here based on reviews on a travel site, and I'm glad I did. Although it may be hit or miss, I believe most of the time you will find a very elderly gentleman as a tour guide. Jackpot (assuming you aren't in a hurry, which you shouldn't be if you are here). He was a wealth of knowledge. This isn't a traditional museum. Its an old house, full of artifacts. Some you would expect, some you wouldn't. We started by viewing EXCEPTIONAL examples of fossils and crystals in the porch area, as shown in the pics I posted. This isn't even all of them, and the pics do not do them justice. They were museum quality specimens for sure. Inside there are signs posted everywhere not to take pics, and so I did not. As mentioned there are traditional antique items you would expect in an old home, but in our opinions, the best part was the antique guns and indian artifacts. I think that little kids would be bored and hard to control here, but older elementary age and up might really enjoy this place. I know we did!

You have to come to the Forest Heritage Center when they have the Folk Festival Arts & Crafts Show…read more It is really one of the better festivals that I have ever attended. I have been coming to Beaver's Bend State Park and to the Forest Heritage Center since I was a child and I noticed that Spike S.'s review discussed the wonderful history and description of the museum so I won't go there. The Folk Festival is going on this weekend and my sister, husband and I went yesterday which was a Friday. I have always gone on Saturday or Sunday in the past but here is a pro-tip. Go on the first day and get there when they open at 9am. The parking is less crowded. When you get to the Forest Heritage Center follow the signs with arrows to the parking area. You will then be directed to a space to park and then you can hop on one of the adorable trams pulled by a tractor or you can hitch a ride in one of the state park vans if you prefer a little more climate control. They will drop you off at the festival and they are constantly picking up folks leaving the festival so you never have to wait. We shopped and observed local artisans preparing their wares. There were people dressed in period costumes throughout. Women were spinning yarn, a man was making wood carvings, and a group was performing traditional folk music on dulcimers and mandolins. There were also Choctaw tribe members making beaded jewelry and demonstrating the game of stickball. The Forest Heritage Center is known for it's support of woodturning artists; so there were many of the woodturners there with the most gorgeous bowls and other turned wood items on display. I believe next year I will buy one of the bowls. Soooooo beautiful. The nearby Oklahoma Historical Society from Fort Towson was there and had numerous prints of old Oklahoma Maps and other historical Oklahoma themed posters for $5 each! Those posters would have made excellent framed art for some of the local cabins or for someone's home. Mountain Fork Brewery had a booth and I bought a nice bottle of the local Stout called Pappy's Buck Snort (love the name and the bottle is gorgeous). I also picked up some delicious Jalapeno Cheddar sourdough bread and a jumbo chocolate sourdough cookie. I also picked up some honey soaked pecans and honey jar containing a honeycomb from Roark Acres and salsa verde from Sixth Day Snacks....as you can see it is all about the food and beverages for me. I hope that you will consider visiting this awesome museum and especially coming to the folk festival in early November. I highly recommend!

Reviewed May 7, 2019 Learn about the logging industry!…read moreThe logging Industry played and still plays an important role in Oklahoma! This museum takes you back to the early days of logging, and progresses to today's industry and the products we depend upon. The museum is laid out in an indoor loop that you walk through to see the displays. It has displays of tools, folk art carvings, informative natural history displays and a great display of historical photos.

While visiting family in Arkansas from Florida, we decided to spend some time exploring local…read morehistory and stopped by Ka-Do-Ha Indian Village. The experience includes a small museum, preserved burial grounds, and an area where visitors can search for arrowheads. We spent over an hour there simply walking leisurely, reading plaques, exploring the grounds, and taking everything in. I actually enjoyed going through the museum twice -- once before touring the grounds and then again afterward because seeing the burial areas and artifacts in person gave much better context to what we were viewing inside. One detail that really stood out to me was the intricate beadwork on a pair of Indian baby shoes displayed in the museum. The craftsmanship and patience behind something like that was incredible to think about. The grounds were well maintained, peaceful, and you could tell they're continuing to improve and add additional features over time. Admission for our family of 5 was around $50 total. While that's not outrageous by today's standards for museums and historical attractions, it did feel a little high relative to the size and simplicity of the site itself. I'm glad we experienced it once and I do believe in supporting local historical sites and preservation efforts. If you enjoy history, archaeology, or quieter educational stops while traveling through the area, it's worth experiencing at least once.

The museum here, though small, deserves to be savored. Walk through and give yourself plenty of…read moretime to read and observe. The collection of arrowheads and Caddo pottery collected at the site is exquisite. It is very well documented and lets one get a true feel for the history of this site. The outdoor exhibit is also thoughtfully and respectfully done. The attendant on the day we were there, Kolton, was very well informed and helpful.

Just an amazing place. It was like walking back in time! This place out of all the places I…read morevisited made the trip worth it. The tour guides knew everything about the owners and history of the home. It gave a lot of insight on the time period when the home was build. The best part was five bucks gets you a very personal tour. This was one of the best tours I've been on. Worth a visit if our in the area and definitely worth a visit if your passing through.

I was in Texarkana in December for work at the same time that we had our short government shut down…read moreso I had a day we had to kill before the defense budget was passed and we got back to work the next day. I found this house on Yelp's things to do search...it was slim pickins for sure. I rounded up four other coworkers to go as well. We couldn't take pics inside so I just have the exterior. It's been a few months so I don't totally recall the history but I think that the original owner was the only lawyer in town. His wife would fly to Neiman Marcus in Dallas twice a year to shop. The photos of the shoes that are on yelp from the business owner are just a small snapshot of all the shoes. There were so many that were cute by today's standards. I loved looking at the shoes. The house was made so that all rooms were an octagon, I think I recall the reasoning was because you get the most light that way. But again...I could be butchering this story. The house had many rooms and a lot of detail. The family donated it to the city as a museum and left a lot of the decor and just took stuff that was sentimental. I think a nephew still lives in town. The house and the grounds definitely needed TLC and preservation. But that costs money and I don't think they're raking in the dough. When we got to work the next day I told one of the dudes that lives in Texarkana that we went there and he knew all about it and mentioned the wife flying to Dallas for shopping lol. So...long story short...if you're in the area and looking for something to do I think this is a great choice. It's cute and informational and supports the community.
