The museum is much larger than we anticipated, with several buildings on the grounds. Like a miniature Greenfield Village. The fully restored Governor's Mansion is not to be missed, as is the introductory film in the first building. We met one docent who was quite informative and not at all intrusive. You exit via an interesting gift shop, loaded (among other things) with quite a few very interesting books pertinent to the locale and history. We were there in early January. I have no doubt it is more crowded and has more going on during warmer weather.

As a local I love taking people to this museum. It is a great place with really friendly staff and tells the history of the area. The buildings are always fun to check out. It is an outdoor walking museum so make sure to take the proper attire and go early rather than later since they sometimes close before dinner. It usually takes my guests 1-2 hours (more if they are really into history) to walk through.

We sort of stumbled upon this museum at 415 Gurley Street in Prescott, AZ, while visiting Whiskey Row. The history you will discover inside is remarkable. The volunteers that serve as your guides are pleasant and well versed. It is a good way to spend several hours; however be careful about the two hour parking limits all over town.

A series of buildings for the visitor to enter and learn about the Prescott Valley/AZ Territory and how they developed. The original log-cabin Governor's Mansion is the crown jewel, and there are helpful docents on hand to tell stories of pioneer hardship. We heard how the 2nd Governor's young wife, Margaret McCormick, came from NJ by ship up the Sea of Cortez, offloaded onto vessel to take her up the Colorado, then traveled overland (following a route not far from today's I-10) to this remote, alien land. And she died the next year in childbirth. I will never drive from Quartzsite to Ehrenberg without thinking of that tragic story.

We enjoyed our visit to this museum. The volunteers were very knowledgeable and would introduce the house or display and then let us wander through on our own.

I liked the helpfulness of the staff. We went first thing in the morning and everyone was very upbeat and friendly! The museum is well done and buildings well preserved. They say go to the car museum onsite and included in the price. That is just OK in my mind. Gardens are nicely done as well, with frontier plantings as well. Great exhibits on Native Americans. Well done!

We enjoyed the local history and the friendly people. My favorite was the many things collected by Sharlot Hall. It's worth a visit and doesn't take forever to walk through

The guides and docents were fantastic and knowledgeable. You should try to go during the week and make sure to ask questions. These volunteers know their history and are more than willing to share. Go today!

Sharlot Hall must have bee quite an incredible individual and one I would like to have met! She was the mover behind this museum and the volunteers at the Sharlot Hall Museum have continued to add and improve what is available at the museum - with truly outstanding results. There are more than 9 buildings, many portraying early life in Prescott and its history but also a pre-history area showing American lions and American camels among other animals that have been extinct in America for thousands of years. Docents are knowledgable, friendly, and helpful as well as fun to talk to. It's a gem of am museum and we will go back whenever we are nearby

Very educational, but fun too! Interesting to see real homes and how people lived in the early days of the west. There is a senior rate (a dollar off the $7 entrance fee).
