I was in town and killing time before meeting up with some people in the evening, and came across this as an option. I swung by and was thoroughly impressed. The young man behind the counter was friendly and walked me through where I'd be going and what I'd be seeing. I was the only one in the "next group" for the intro video, and he even delayed the start time since I ran to the restroom before roaming the grounds. They have an impressive display of artifacts ranging from early Texas all the way through the frontier days, including a very impressive array of historic guns towards the end. They have interactive kiosks and hologram displays where actors portray historical figures and tell "firsthand" accounts of what was experienced on the frontier, right out of the accounts left by those people beforehand. There's a second theater towards the end of the museum that's a lot more immersive. You have to rotate around in a swivel chair as the story is told from all around you, and there's lights and sound to really sell you on the experience-- all from the comfort of your air-conditioned chair. I don't plan on being back in Abilene anytime soon, but if I ever was back with friends, I'd take them here to check this place out.

Good coverage of the Native Americans and their culture. It was seriously the best kept museum I have seen. And many hands-on elements. Definitely worth a visit if in the area.

We ended up staying for nearly four hours (which is unusual for us!) because we were having such a great time. At just $13 for unlimited play, it felt like a fantastic value.

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place any longer. It was once a frequently visited place by…read moremyself and others that I know. However, I was informed unceremoniously that they are banning me. The manager would only tell me that it was because I was rude to the bartenders. This has never taken place. When asked specifics, the manager was rude and ill mannered, and would not provide any information whatsoever. I requested information in a non-confrontational form and the manager did not have the guts or the respect for me to provide anything other than a response that was extremely rude.

Her communication level lead me to believe the day-off would be significantly better than it was. there was an issue with the ceremony site equipment set up at the venue- that was reasonably stressful for Lisa (and not her fault), and it seemed she was not able to bounce back from it. multiple guest commented that she seemed stressed throughout the night. beyond that our first dance song I don't believe was cut down, there were significant awkward pauses between songs at the reception - I have my Spotify set up to fade into the next song. again Lisa's communication prior to the event was really good- maybe she was just having an off day.
