This museum is a real treasure representing the history of Three Oaks and the surrounding area. Their exhibits are well done and changed annually to keep the museum fresh, and they provide lots of other history-related activities, such as zoom and in-person presentations, to keep the public informed about the rich history of the area. I highly recommend visiting the museum and becoming a member.

Wonderful museum that covers the entire Three Oaks and local community areas. They have antiques and vintage items covering all of the area history. If you love visiting the Three Oaks and Harbor Country area here in Southwestern lower Michigan, this is a great stop along the way for you. Exhibits are changed up to keep it interesting, and they have a huge collection of so many wonderful things, displayed very nicely in separate exhibits. While you are in town, take a tour of Three Oaks, one of Harbor Country's most charming communities.

I was able to visit the Museum again two weeks ago, when in town for the All Three Oaks High School Reunion. They have wonderful exhibits and went out of their way to make all of us Oakers welcome. They even brought TOHS memorabilia to the reunion. Volunteer Nick Bogert did a fabulous walking tour of downtown Three Oaks, talking about all the businesses that had operated out of various buildings. Kudos to the wonderful museum volunteers who are doing such a great job of preserving regional history. If you have old photos and Three Oaks information, please consider sharing or donating to the Museum. They will take great care of your treasuers!

This museum displays artifacts that bring the region's history in manufacturing, agriculture, tourism and trade to life. Exhibits and activities for children are included.The museum is a bit difficult to locate but is actually just a short walk West of Three Oak's main street attractions and should enhance anyone's visit to the area.

A wonderful place with tons of interesting bits of history to see. Great for the townfolk who lived it, and wonderful for out-of-town visitors who wish to know more about the community.
