The museum had tons of items that shows what a general store, a newspaper office, a bank, a blacksmith shop, and many other examples of life in the late 1800s. The building is very deceiving because it has a full basement. It took is over 2 hours to go through the entire museum. We were all impressed with the amount of items on loan from local residents. It is obvious that the community is very supportive of the museum. They have a large amount of the museum dedicated to the armed forces and the local contributions of individuals and families.

Their concern and care for their guests during COVID-19 was much appreciated by us. Masks were required at all times in the property unless dining in one of the restaurants. As one other reviewer shared the hotel was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. If we hadn't been passing through we would have stayed another evening. You should note that you do need to walk through the casino to reach the restaurants. There is a non-smoking section in the casino but there is also a smoking section. Even though we aware neither smokers or interested in the casino the stay at the hotel positively outweighed the casino and smoking area. We were glad to think we were supporting the local tribe. Our stay at Wind River was one of the best experiences we had over two weeks of staying in various hotels during our trip. Thank you, Wind River.
