From the reviews
This is so much more than just a museum! The Cass County Historical Society has put together a fantastic complex of historical building on this gigantic site! Every building has its own story with several dedicated to specific displays. One building houses law enforcement memorabilia.
Fantastic historical village that was created from houses and buildings moved from different parts of North Dakota. Thousands of artifacts. Especially fun was the telephone and communication building. A blast from the past. Not to be missed when in Fargo. Great value with low cost admission.
We didn't realize they were in the off season now, so most of the exhibits and buildings were closed. It was free to see what was available though. The exhibits we did see were very nice, with excellent, informative signage.
Cute historical museum with focus primarily on American experience. I love that you can explore at your own pace and it was not very crowded when we went. Our favorite part was the old school telephones that actually worked and seeing the setups of how people used to live back in the day.
Getting married at Bonanzaville USA
Bonanzaville USA comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
