One of a kind unique glimpse into the past. Worth the trip. Great food at the cafe as well!
Everything about this place is wonderful! There is so much to do and interact with! It’s very well kept up, and there is a lot of attention to detail - you really feel like you’re in the fur trade. The people there are very knowledgeable and friendly. They have lots to do - chicken races, an interactive farm, a working fur store house (with so many furs you can actually touch!), atatel throwing, and an interpretive centre. They do a wonderful job of balancing the Indigenous history with white history. Their diner is amazing!! We got the pulled rabbit sandwich, and it was delicious! This is a really special place to visit!
Staff was very friendly and showed us around. We met all the animals and actually went into the Turkeys barn.
The site was very nicely preserved. This is a piece of Canadian history you cannot miss!
Loved this little site. Too bad the little store was closed due to Covid. The short walk around the buildings was just right. Was nice to see a few people role playing in the garden n officer shack. Looking at this history from an aboriginal perspective showed some inconsistent facts. Wish there was more history dedicated to the first nations in the region.
Nicely setup. Very interesting and informative. I thinking one of the best historical places I've visited in awhile. The Home Strech Diner has good food.
