A great place for kids and adults to learn about the Lenape people, as well as other indigenous people. If you get there during a festival, the Indian tacos and fry bread are amazing.

Excellent representation of Native American culture and history.I went to a powwow out here over the summer and when I saw this museum, it gave me chills to see the history come to life before my eyes. The feeling that consumes you is impossible to put into words. The building itself is historical in nature. Take a tour and experience this life-changing event for yourself.

This is a small museum but the collection of artifacts and displays is condensed effectively. No photos are allowed in the museum unfortunately.Tours are suitable for small groups and are affordable. The two tour guides I was led by today were very passionate, but were occasionally sidetracked.I did not have lime left to stay long at the gift shop. I hope in future this musuem could offer postcards of its own collection and/or allow photos of certain memorable exhibits.

Went on a Saturday over the summer. O was looking forward to really learning some history. It was just gift shop booths and food. Not very authentic and the museum itself was closed. Too many people, too hot.

The guide was hostile and angry from the moment my friend and I walked in the door. He seemed very attentive and friendly to a younger lady guest so we really felt it.

This museum is tiny, but the two men who run the place make up for it. They are more than happy to guide you through the artifacts, tell stories and chat afterwards. I went with my boyfriend today at 3 pm. We learned a lot from the curators and they stayed until 45 minutes past closing to continue to educate us. I even found out that I have an Aztec symbol on my pendant. This was a great experience for only $5 per person!!

The history is interesting but theres not much to see inside. Theres a few Native American outfits and tools but thats about it. Also, the tickets are expensive for what you get. You should skip this place.

Wesley was incredibly informative, welcoming and helpful during our visit. The place was a lot smaller than I expected it to be, but it is jam packed with information and displays. Wesley really made the place come alive, and we ended up staying longer than originally planned because of how into it we all became. 10/10 and would definitely recommend.
