This historic park gives you such a realistic portrayal of Frisco from its beginnings. You must tour this village--free!

This free museum features several old log cabins and buildings with historical significance to Frisco and mining in the surrounding region. Many exhibits and audio recordings enhance the tour, and the setting is in a pretty little municipal park.

The best small town museum we've ever visited, and we go to a lot of museums. The old buildings are interesting in and of themselves, and they have obviously been lovingly maintained since they were moved to this location. The exhibits inside each building were very professional, with each building having its own theme--one is all about the early women of Frisco, one is a bar (and shall we hint, brothel?), one is a trapper's cabin, one a general store, and a couple were set up as family homes. The town's original school building is the "main" building, with well-done displays of various aspects of Frisco history--Native Americans, mining, local fauna, etc. A wonderful diorama of the town of long ago, with great "can-you-find-its" for the kids. Well, okay, I'm no kid but I'm still proud of finding the man yelling at a cow and a little girl in "time out." I'm going to check the box for allowing 1-2 hours, but we were there for more than 2.

A good place to kill a half hour or more.
Plenty of history and memorabilia in the main building that explains the early days of Frisco. Go out the back door to walk through the jail and homes that were preserved in their original condition.

An amazing collection of relocated cabins and buildings from the late 1800s and early 1900s. The buildings are all furnished as they would have been, and there is a museum and gift shop. And it is all free to see! The park has a large gazebo where you can picnic or rest, and during the summer there are free music events on most Thursday evenings. There are also lectures on many Wednesday evenings, usually concerning Summit County history. A must see when visiting Frisco, and it is dog friendly.
