Boot Hill Museum

Oh my God!!! This place is a must see place to experience and educate yourself on the Wild West!!!! I can’t recall one of the employee’s name, but she gave me knowledge of the places and nearby attractions in the area. The museum was shutting down for the evening on August 28th. But, she let me and my husband to see Ms. Kitty’s attire and admire it for a couple of minutes!!! We really appreciated that brief moment!!! Thank you!!!! When we went back the next day, it was an amazing journey of the 1800s and life in Dodge City. The artifacts collected over the years were definitely a priceless treasure!!!!! The gunfight skit was outstanding!! The gunfighters…..WOW!!!! They autographed me an 8x10 photo of the whole crew. They even took a picture with me. This particular gem and their deserve more than 5 stars. I live in Nebraska and I’m giving all of you a shout out!!! Anyone who makes plans to visit Dodge City, you have to make an unforgettable experience right here at the Boot Hill Museum!!! It will make you feel like you’re living in the moment of the Wild West!!!❤️ And thank you for making our family vacation special and worth coming back next year!!!

This place is an enjoyable experience for people of all ages. They have a lovely gift shop, and several bathrooms throughout the area. It is an open-ended tour, so you decide where to go at your own pace. Tickets stop selling at 5pm. Nobody new can enter, but you have until 7 to explore if you entered before 5. The saloon was great, Karen was absolutely lovely and showed my aunt and I how to do the "cancan" - and while we danced terribly, it was fun, and my aunt will not stop talking about how good the experience was. Karen was very kind and helpful, more than willing to help take photos. We spent probably 30 minutes just in there drinking our root beer and chatting with her. Highly recommend this building! A few places are closed for renovations, but there is a lot to explore and many places you can sit and rest. The environment is great and quite peaceful.

Living in the Wild Wild West! If you’re in the area for Dodge City and Boot Hill this is a must see attraction! So much history in a relatively small area. Legends such as Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, and many others made their presence felt here. The museum did a great job capturing this time era. Plan on staying for about a good hour to hour and a half to read and enjoy all the exhibits.
