This museum has some interesting artifacts but the staff is not very helpful and the trail is very run down also the outdoor displays are not visible would not recommend visiting here if you like guided informational and historic museums. Consider the chicamacomico lifesaving station or the Wright brothers national memorial if you want to be blown away!!!!
