I wasn’t sure about looking at a ‘cowboy’ museum. I am so glad we did! This is the most beautiful museum! It’s huge! There’s so much to see! Plan to spend several hours here! The gardens outside are pretty and complete with fish in the ponds. There’s a cafe that closes at 2. We didn’t go there, but it was busy. The front desk reception is friendly and offered us a locker to keep our water bottles in. Then they gave us a key to access the locker, - quite helpful! We could easily go back a second day to see everything we missed! If you have the time, enjoy the museum! Much more to see than just cowboy stuff!

This is a great museum covering cowboys and the American West. The exhibition space is much larger than you might think. We spent 3 hours there and did not finish seeing the exhibits. They had a lot of artworks from Remington and Russell, but also other artists. The was also an area displaying winners of their annual art competition. These were very good and not "modern art" pieces. They had exhibits on the military, Native Americans, black cowboys and vaqueros, and well as Hollywood's portrayals of the American West. The life of a cowboy was also discussed. Outside, there are burial sites for a number of horses and bulls, a waterfall, multiple statues (including a large one of Buffalo Bill) and displays showing the "homes" of various tribes. The gift shop is very nice, though of course fairly expensive. One negative- another bathroom would be nice. Overall, I highly recommend this museum!

For a wee boy growing up in '60s and' 70s Scotland, watching countless cowboy and Indian movies and TV shows this was a dream come true, a step into a dream, a golden ticket to Willie Wonka's, a trip to Mecca and it didn't disappoint. This was one of the main reasons we travelled to Texas and Oklahoma this year and every minute of the 4 hours we spent here was magical. The place is huge, much bigger than we imagined. We spent so long looking at the wonderful art not realising that there was so much more. The costumes, the rodeo, the Hollywood memorabilia, the guns, the native American history, I could go on and on and we did. The outside was amazing too. It was worth our entire trip, so much to see, to appreciate and have to thank #hashtagtimthecowboy for really sparking our interest during the pandemic, we said when the world opened up we'd come and we did and it was so worth it.

I married a Texan 40+ years ago so he was very excited to have look at the museum. The exhibits were excellent, especially the photos of farmers from many states. We were there 2 hours and could have spent more time. Enjoy!

This place leans more towards being an art museum. There is plenty to see in each area. They cover movies, tv, Indian art, cowboys and cowgirls. Our favorite part was the outside area. You can wander through different types of early housing and also see the graves of horses.

If you enjoy cowboy and Indian art, you will love this place! And it’s more than that. There is an entire area dedicated to western film as well as the rodeo. It took about 4 hours to go through everything inside and out. We did stop and watch each of the films that were being offered but did not read each exhibit. Those ranged from 7-15 minutes each. A few places were under construction, and I can’t imagine having more to look at! My husband loved the weapon exhibits. I loved the miniature western town where you could walk through a street and look or go into buildings to see what it was like during that time. They do have an original Remington sculpture (only one made) that is beautiful.

If you like the West, cowboys or western movies. The museum is very detailed. Full of examples: 500+ barbed wire examples, movie star memorabilia, art work, interactive Indian lodging, statutes, and awesome volunteers. There is an entrance fee. Depending on your Western preference, plan on anywhere from 1 to 4 hours at the museum. The museum offers tours; call front desk for exact times. Tour was scheduled for 1 p.m. when we were visiting. There is not an easy flow to the museum; you wander from area to area loosing track of time enjoying the exhibits. The exhibit labeling offers good explanations. There are interactive children areas.

This is a great museum! I had read to give this museum 3 hours but that is without the guided tour. The guided tour was supposed to last 1.5 hours and it actually lasted 2. Baillie was great and passionate about the history and artifacts at the museum. You can tell he loves to share his knowledge. So I’d say give 4-5 hours minimum for this museum if you want to see everything. There is a lot of history about cowboys, rodeos, native Americans and more. There is a lot of artwork as well. I liked the museum and felt it was worth the money to see it.

Probably one of the best museums in OKC for families. There is something that will interest everyone in your group. From art, to history of the rodeo to several kids activities. Been there several times and it never disappoints. Throughout the year they have large scale events such as the Chuck Wagon festival (late May) and much more. Be sure to follow them on social media for upcoming events.

Absolutely amazing museum! For those with the time, you could easily spend an entire day here; however, it is equally enjoyable for those with only a few hours to spare. The reasonable ticket price also does not leave you feeling guilty if a few hours is all you have. Great mix of traditional museum exhibits and interactive displays. Life size reproductions and films really add to the experience. Definitely a must do!
