Abbie Gardner Cabin

Reviewed By Bookmom17 - Kansas City, United States

The Abbie Gardner cabin, neighboring museum and historical monument are tucked away in a city park setting a short distance from Arnold's Park. Visitors learn the history of the Spirit Lake Massacre in which many of the earliest white settlers in this area were killed or kidnapped in a confrontation with Native Americans. Definitely take the time to watch the interpretive film in the small museum. It explains the history of the area and the events immediately leading up to the killings, and the major life events of survivor Abbie Gardner. Very important for everyone to know the history of the westward expansion that displaced Native people. The monument dates to the 1890's and lists all the names of the deceased settlers; very moving.

Historic Amusement Park and Museum. Celebrated over 125 years of operations.

Reviewed By TootlesMinnesota

I have 2 grandchildren I was able to go on this trip with and my little 3 year old granddaughter had the time of her life at this amusement park. It is so geared to young children and I LOVED watching her have the best time ever....she could go on roller coaster, log ride, ferris wheel....all of it was great for her. My little bit older grandson also had a terrific time as it is small so he could run and do what he wanted and felt quite safe!!! I would suggest getting rid of the dart game to break balloons, this day and age not a great sound until you get used to it...
