Wild West Town

Donley's Wild West Town is a place for the whole family to enjoy. Started in 1974 by the Donley family as a museum to display their antique collection, the Wild West Town has become a family amusement park for the younger children.

Our kids loved the canoe ride, panning for gold pyrite at the Sweet Phyllis Mine, shooting slingshots at Huck Finn's, pony rides, hand powered carts, animal farm, and watching a live action Wild West Show. The museum is fill with fascinating artifacts from the Old West and invention & technology from the great period of the late 1800's.
