Reviews
"In my experience this historical museum is a top level experience as each item is very carefully catalogued and referenced to the history of Crows Nest . 70 items on display have a connection to Crows Nest itself most particularly the Ray White Real Estate agent as I have the regional office and house of salon white"
"One of the best bush museums around. It's a village made up of historic buildings including Ray Whites 1st real estate office. Each has its own theme of collections e.g. fashion or mechanics, farm machines etc. Just so tidy and clean. Office staff so helpful. Best $10 / person you can spend ($8 concession)."
"Absolutely fantastic! This Historical museum is so we'll set out that you get a sense of how people moved about and lived in the village. By far the best whole display I have seen. At $25 a family, it is definitely worth stopping by. We took our 3 young adult sons and each of them loved everything they saw. You can touch and feel as you go which makes it a wonderful experience."
"Amazing place. You can really feel the sense of how people lived in this village. With 21 buildings to explore, they've covered everything. Each building is as awesome as the one before. At $25 a family, it took us 2 hours to see everything. In the end we had to rush though as they were closing. I guess we dawdled a little too much to start. Highly recommend this place. It's a full on touch and feel experience, which makes this a very special place to visit."
"It is always good to see a towns history. Great work to the locals who donated all of the exhibits, big and small. A real surprise was the fact that Ray White Real Estate started in Crows Nest as an auctioneer of pigs. The story is well worth the admission. Look out for the wild bee hive in a stump and the honey."
