The oldest is the 1870 Perry Store, containing living quarters, period artifacts and military memorabilia.

A log cabin and blacksmith shop rekindle pioneer times, and a rustic barn shows Native American artifacts. Antique farm equipment and a windmill dot the shady grounds. “Law West of the Pecos” Judge Roy Bean and his son are buried on site, near dioramas depicting his life and a replica of his Jersey Lilly saloon/courtroom.
