    When you visit it, the Shelton-McMurphey-Johnson House comes alive with history. Here, you'll get…read moresome good insights into some strong women's lives. Tip: The stairs are steep so be aware; they're not recommended for small children or people with mobility issues. When you ascend to the attic, you'll find an impressive replica of the house, and also a nice collection of war memorabilia (Swords, flags, photos, medical instruments, etc.). We very much enjoyed learning more about the history of Eugene; the docents were both friendly and knowledgeable. The furnishings and architecture are from a different time and the tour was informative.

    Read a review from 3 years ago and it said it was only $6 to get in and guess what? It's still only…read more$6 to get in! The docent was a very kind and friendly lady who knew the most about Aida but knew something about all of them. I appreciate her honesty when we asked a wished didn't know she would tell us she was not sure but would offer a maybe because... or probably because.... She pointed out what pieces of furniture were original to the home and explained how the rest were donated. So much history! She said the last lady who owned the home was raised in the Campbell House Inn which is actually where we stayed! I didn't take a bunch of photos as I was enjoying the moment and listening to the docent tell us the history of the home. Also many other people have posted great photos here already so no point in being redundant. The docent said it is decorated for Christmas during the holidays and recommended to visit it if I'm the area during that time. The theme was weddings do when we visited as the docent explained that someone had donated a tremendous amount of wedding gowns to the museum.

It was outdoors and near great hiking for those interested and very reasonably priced at $3,500 Fridays and Sundays and $4,500 Saturdays. You get the venue from 11 AM - 10 PM and 1 hour rehearsal that you can schedule. I knew it was outdoors and came with that risk but I do wish we were warned about all the bees as there were so many making it hard to eat. Otherwise the whole crew were amazing and made our day feel so special.

    Went to the mushroom festival and loved every minute. Great job using full size busses as shuttles!…read moreI think this is my third event here and I love how they run things. Parking is great and the space is top notch. Their events always attract a great crowd. The surrounding trails make for a lovely escape from the masses when you need a break and it's incredibly pleasant to wander in all the different pockets of fun that can be set up around the main hall. On non event days it's one of my favorite nearish parks year round. Bird watching early or evening strolls, shady summer walks or a solid hike up the hill, it's never boring. They've got nature events all year round and easily accessable interpretive trails for fun and education. Go check it out if you want to see what appreciating the land looks like.
