“This museum (basically in the middle of nowhere) is AWESOME! Nice gift shop and a very cool garden. The rattlesnake exhibit is wonderful. All of the displays have location maps to show their natural habitat.  If you are in the area it's definitely a cool place to visit."

“A great little museum. We didn't realize there were so many different types of rattlesnakes. Very nice live exhibits. There is also a lot of cool snake memorabilia. Be sure to visit the garden. It's worth the stop!"
