Very well maintained exhibits with lots of information provided on reader boards mounted at the exhibits.I had been to the top of Pikes Peak the previous day - the Pikes Peak exhibit in the museum was the icing on the cake after my drive up to the top of the mountain. I love museums and I could have stayed here all day reading, observing, taking photos, etc. I hope I can come back!

Great museum with lots of modern and old school transportation..Was able to park in Broadmoor parking garage for 6$ and museum is free. Loved the old carriages as well as the layout of the museum. If your into race cars and old way transportation, you will love this museum.

Great little museum. Would be nice if there was a bit more, but theyve done a great job with the space. Also its free! They do pack in a lot of information into it.

This is a small museum, but we loved it. Lots of Pike Peak Hill Climb race memorabilia. Plus, its free.

Best Museum in Colorado! And its free! We learn lots of things about pikes peak

It was clean and it was free. Great for the car guy as well as the historian. Our guide was awesome and very knowledgeable. I parked in the parking garage and it was free also ?!?!?

Newly reopened due to covid with limited dates and times to visit. The museum is free along with parking but you must call the number on the web site to reserve a visit. There are no guided tours due to covid but Sarah who met me at the door answered my few questions I had and the museum is very organized with detailed information throughout. Its a small museum but full of Penroses carriages used throughout the era and the full history of The Race to the Clouds. That is the race to Pikes Peak which started in 1916. So if you love history

This place was absolutely fantastic. Especially for a Pikes Peak hillclimb enthusiast. Go see it it when you have time

Very cool history of the Pikes Peak Climb

Its free to begin with! Such an array of different kinds of vehicles from many different decades in time. Horse drawn carriages, buggies, and cabs etc. In addition there are classic cars from the 20s to 40s. Next door there is an entire history of the Pikes Peak rally race with race cars of all varieties, too. It was enjoyable for both my husband and me. Probably best suited for adults but some children would enjoy it too but be careful of young ones, its not well protected from them going right to and around the cars.

Great little museum. My kids were fascinated by the race cars.

Fun little museum. Very informative and its free!

Beautiful and intriguing. A must visit while youre in the area. Cant beat free either. The carriages are fascinating. Just imagining the people who once sat in them can whisk you away for a few moments.

The children at our center really enjoyed the different race cars and the old carriages and how we have come so far in how race cars changed and motorcycles. They were amazed how people used to ride in the carriages. They loved the videos and pictures, oh and the helmets. Thank you, Sarah!

What a little gem in a nice area, and I think its the only place like it in town with all the Peak racing, and more carriages then Ive seen in one place. The best part was having a great guide, Jason, he made getting information fun for the kids too. Bring your quarters and pennies for the penny press. They do validate if youve parked in the garage. A must see for learning more about Colorado Springs!

Wonderful contrast between the horse and buggy and the modern automobile. The speeds achieved climbing to pikes peak by the modern racing vehicles are beyond belief.

Great racing heritage for those who are into automotive racing. I enjoyed seeing the various car models used for the hillclimb race. Truly an awesome stop to visit.

Fun things to look at, very well layed out. Tours available but you can guide yourself if you desire. Family friendly, wheelchair accessible. Free... Free!

Very nice little museum. Interesting story of Colorado.

Its Free and better than some non-free car museums.

Wonderful and very rich collection of carriages etc.

What a wonderful place! The displays of carriages, cars, saddles and more were amazing. The layout of the museum was very open and easy to view the displays. And with the many informative plaques throughout, one can learn so many interesting facts and the history behind each item. Definitely worth a visit! The museum is free and they will validate your parking in Broadmoor garage for one and a half HR free!

We were looking for something to do on a rainy afternoon and stumbled upon this gem. The horse-drawn carriages and Pike’s Peak racers were well-displayed and described. The venue is gorgeous and super clean. Sarah gave us a great overview of the collection, and then we were free to roam. It’s free AND parking is validated. Highly recommend!!

Interesting place that is mostly about the carriages of the time and the crazy world racing up the mountain.

Great place to learn local history

Very cool FREE displays of old race cars, motorcycles, and even horsedrawn carriages before the combustion engine was widely available. Well worth an hour or two of your time!

An amazing museum. Carriages were neat but the best part was all the history of the Pikes Peak race. Great videos, cars and artifacts.

This place was amazing, never seen anything like this before. I was happy with our tour guide she did great explained everything to us about the cars and buggys and there history. Great experience for me and my husband.

Its not a very big museum, but they make good use of their space. The carriages especially were so cool!! Grownups and kids alike can enjoy this museum.

Kind of small but a lot of neat things to see! They were giving a tour which sounded very informative. We opted to tour ourselves since we have a strong willed toddler but he loved this place.

Amazing FREE museum! This museum gives tons of history about Colorado, racing and many other amazing facts about Colorado!

Good, small, free museum with hill climb and old west transportation exhibits.

Very historic to the area. Adjoins the Broadmoor Hotel in CO Springs.

Really cool a lot of history and cars, ask for the little tour

Great selection of vintage carriages. My toddler loved the race cars. The exhibits were small but very nice. Free parking and free museum. Ill be taking my son back again.

What a cool stop and its free! Saw all mode of transportation used by the Penrose family, guests and the cars used for the pikes peak race. Video was interesting.

Very interesting exhibits of 1800s vintage horse drawn carriages, early 1900s autos, and more recent vehicles including Pikes Peak Challenge race cars

Very well put together. Loved it.

So many cool things to see here and the curators are very friendly.

Great history. Loved all the old carriages.

Excellent free museum, with free parking for 1 1/2hrs in the parking garage. Very cool vehicles from the ‘20’s up to today with a focus on the Pikes Peak Highway Race.

History of pikes peak was amazing. Well done.

Very cool Museum! Theres something for everybody for the pioneer days up to the racing days for Pikes Peak. Take your time when you go sit down and watch the movies that are are featured throughout the museum. I know youll enjoy it. Parking is at the hotel next door in the parking garage... But the hotel validate your parking so its free.

Very very interesting and thank you for validating our parking ticket! Be sure and watch the short and very good movie about the Penrose story!!

How could you give less than 5 stars for a free museum? You cant. They will even validate parking at the next door Broadmoor hotel underground parking garage. Nice people in here, some cool things to look at. Worth the trip.

Great informative strole through the history of some of Colorado Springs. Wonderful free activity and so close for a drive through Helen Hunt Falls as well...

We had guilded tour had a good time recommend everyone take the time to stop in and enjoy.

A little of the road, a little out of the way, allot to see. Betty interesting place. And its free!!

A hidden treasure right here in our back yard! Loved it!

A great showcase of some of the history of the Piles Peak region.

Free museum! Awesome history of Pikes Peak race. Also validated parking for us!

Beautiful and loaded with items. Piles Peak cars, motorcycle and items are totally with stopping in for.Parking garage next door is expensive if youre there over an hour.

Wonderful collection of memorabilia. Very much worth it. Especially since its free.

It is really nice but its not very big so youll probably spend like 30 mins here the staff are very friendly and the cars are nice to look at and read and watch the video about history of pikes peak

There are some nice carriages and a Pikes Peak race display here. This is a very small museum.

Has some interesting facts for the area cars used to climb piles peak over the years and motorcycles but mostly carriages and saddles.

Its very interesting to go and see the old carriages and the specific use for each one. Lots of history here. Thanks to Spencer Penrose. Also learning about the Pikes Peak hill climb is fascinating.

Awesome if you love local history!

Beautiful old vehicles, Native American artifacts and car racing history.

An amazing gem everyone needs to visit. Colorado Springs best kept secret

Next to the Broadmoor. A must visit if you are anywhere near

A somewhat hidden gem. Antique carriages and race cars that have in the Pikes Peak race.

Nice place across from the Broadmoor. Free admission and they will validate your parking.

Loved looking at all the stagecoaches!

This is a great place to spend an hour looking at a variety of local history. It is a free museum and has something for all.

Penrose was a very big part of Colorado Springs history. Wish I couldve partied with him!

They need to figure something else for parking went today and apparently closed when supposed to be open. Tried calling first didnt say closed no special sign that said closed for weather. Went to hotel that is linked with museum they thought they were open parking was supposed to be free well if you cant get ticket validated because no one shows up to work you pay 2.00 for nothing. So not very happy at all.

Great history on the pikes peak race and carriages use here from around the world

It is free and very interesting. After seeing the Likes Peak Hill Climb in person, I have wanted to stop in at the museum. Worth the drive, we loved our time learning about some of the history of Colorado Springs as well as the race.

Great content and free admission.

Nice little museum. Cool racing cars.

After a rough start Mr. J. Campbell made it amazing. The automobile features were amazing and the history of racing at Pikes Peak was memorable. Jason took time to talk racing with the family.

Interesting museum. Small, easy to navigate. The docent was friendly and gave us a lot of helpful information and interesting tidbits and stories.

Really enjoyed the Pikes Peak Hill Climb area, a must see!

Such an awesome museum for being completely free. The parking area looks like you have to pay for it but as long as you have the curator validate your parking even the parking is free. The best part of the museum in my opinion is the Hillclimb section, especially with the wreckage of the crashed Evo.

They Have Some Cool Stuff To Look At

Nice display of cars from Pikes Peak.

This museum is great! It is free and was not busy when we went. The man that worked there that day was so sweet and lovely. He even gave advice on what to see across the street! The museum included many race cars that have raced Pikes Peak hill climb. There are also a lot of artifacts from Mr. Penrose and his family. I would recommend it!

Great collection, friendly staff

This is a cool little spot to check out and it is free. I would have given it 5 Stars except of the lack of any mention of Flint Michigan. They have old carriages and Buggies on display and all are from the East Coast. I thought they would have at least some mention of Flint being it was one of the biggest centers of wagon and buggy Manufacturing.

Fantastic display of both the history of the Penrose family, as well as a showcase of Americas second oldest Motorsports race. Its also 100% free, and you can get validated parking in the Broadmoor garage.

Wow alot of carriages and old time history that you wont see anywhere else.

Very cool! Highly recommend!

What a beautiful display of vintage transportation. I never knew it existed.

See a carriage used by our ninth president at his inauguration, cars raced at pikes peak, actual American Indian clothing, motorcycles and much more. Crash Campbell, the curator talks with everyone and he is overflowing with history.

Really fun, free museum. Definite must whether you are a history buff or a motor head. Note: they will validate parking for the Broadmoor underground garage!

Penrose family heirlooms and history, including an extensive c of horse carriages, riding gear, and race cars that competed in the Pikes Peak Hill Climb. Learn about the history of the construction and design of the Broadmoor Hotel and grounds, including Spencer Penrises rise to fortune from Harvard to copper mining ventures with the Guggenheims, and his desire to replicate the grand hotels of the east coast in CO.

This is a free activity & they even validate your parking ticket if needed. Very interesting, teens enjoyed it!

Fantastic gone to the pikes peak Hill climb since I was a kid, great to see a museum again

Went to this Museum today and was surprised!! The visit was great and friendly... small but well worth the trip!!

Very interesting Museum great displays very friendly and knowledgeable. And they validate parking.

Awesome carriage and car museum, i had never seen so many different types of carriages

Horrible place. I’ve been to many museums and this was possibly the worst one I have ever visited. I went into the museum and right away this old man was sitting down and I asked him if the museum was open to the public and and their website said open 1-5 and he said “no, and your not allowed here ever again, so get out”! I was treated horribly and I was kicked out for no reason. Never Comin back here ever again!

Phenomenal little Museum I always have a great time when I take my boy although it is a bit small there is numerous things to look at the hospitality is stupendous restrooms and packable parking a bit confusing but definitely plentiful definitely a good place to recommend.

Simply amazing the history that is here. Learning the Penrose story is great for kids and adults alike. If you like history, this place is great.

Jason, the curator was phenomenal! Short, but engaging visit. Awesome things to see, and the Hill Climb video was informative as well as entertaining!

Very interesting place with lots of racing history as well as other kinds of History

Absolutely loved it!

A great place to see up close the Pikes Peak hill climb racers, vintage carriages and other stuff. Its free to get in. Call ahead to get a private tour.

This is a very cool museum for being free. It isnt very big, but what they do have is well curated.
