totem pole park印象

Part of Rt. 66 history so we had to stop. Browsed the small park that has a little gift shop that was not open. Place to sit and picnic and even grill if you like.

Stopped off to see on our trip. 4 miles off the route but worth it. Liked the small park, well kept totems. Has to be done on the Route 66 .

I probably wouldn't come here if you were pushed for time as there's not that much to see but it's still a good attraction. Make sure you also visit the gift shop which has a collection of fiddles. The lady in there is very nice and can give you a good run down on the history.

I like to get off the beaten path and find a place to stretch and maybe have a picnic when I travel and in warmer weather this would be an ideal place. When I visited on a cold and wintry January the gift shop and Fiddle House were closed and picnicking was out of the question, but I still enjoyed my visit.This nine acre park is owned and operated by the Rogers County Historical Society and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Ed Galloway who created the park from 1937 to 1948 meant it as a tribute to Native Americans. The huge 90 foot totem pole billed as the world's largest, is a turtle at the bottom with his head sticking out and four nine foot American Indians near the top representing four different tribes. In addition there are 200 other items on the pole. I found it really amazing and appreciated Mr Galloway's vision and perseverance in imagining and completing such a monumental task.In additional to the large totem pole there was also the 11 sided Fiddle House/Gift Shop and several other objects done by Galloway within the park and lots of room for kids to roam and for a family to picnic.The park is located four miles east of Route 66 on OK 28A which is on the far northern edge of Foyil about 10 miles NE of Claremore. The turn off Route 66 is not well marked and easy to miss. I enjoyed the drive down OK 28A through rural Oklahoma past some farms that raised unusual animals. I enjoyed my brief visit enough that I want to return in nice weather when everything is open.

Family of 5 - 19, 16, 10 yo girls. We all loved taking pictures and enjoyed the art and strangeness of this attraction. They have neat tables that are painted, totem poles (of course), and a neat gift shop that was nicely priced. We purchased Route 66 memorabilia, some indian wrist jewelry, enjoyed the banjo display and reading the signage. The gentleman that oversee's the property was in a wheelchair making his way around with his dog. Very nice man and enjoyable to talk to and to pet his dog. Will come by again if we do the entire route at some point. Recommend!

The totem pole park is a great site to see on your journey on Route 66 even though it is a bit out of the way. My husband and I had to check this off our list so we made the journey and we are sure glad we did. The totem poles are amazing and breath taking to see how much work the creator went into making them. The woman who works inside the gift shop is the nicest lady out there! She gave everyone a run down of the history and was so friendly. The fiddles and the photos in huge gift shop are amazing to think one man made all of those and more! I have to say my husband truly appreciated that the care taker brought him from across town one of the Route 66 bank cars that was first in the series as he was purchasing the second in the series.

The totem pole is a little outta the way so my advice pack a picnic lunch and eat on the grounds, there are picnic tables provided. They have lovingly preserved this treasure and the people at the Totem Pole are wonderful.Things were slower when Route 66 was at its peak.. this is the perfect place to sit back and reflect..

We took in Totem Pole park as part of our Route 66 sightseeing trips. It was interesting and neat to see. The detail and colors of the totem poles are impressive. Theres not a lot of them but if you are in the area it's worth stopping for a few minutes to check them out.

Stopped with husband on mini Route 66 excursion. Had a picnic which was nice and liked the inside of the totem pole was nice and cool. If you like odd things you'll love it. If you don't keep driving.

This stop is a few min drive off rt 66. it is not directly off the road. Don't worry you are not lost it's just drive through a rural area to get there. Cute little stop. A very large totem pole and a few other art pieces. Picnic area available.
