If you ever wondered who the creator of Mt. Rushmore was, this museum is a masterpiece. You are given earphones and a tape deck, and then you wander through a prescribed course. Borglum had an incredible vision that he brought forth through many years of labor. Please do not dismiss this museum if you have the time. Little ones may... More

I have visited this site on several occasions and have enjoyed it every time. The cost is very reasonable so a family does not have to feel bad about spending a lot of money for the group. Expect to spend a good hour and to be very well informed. This is a great spot to visit before going to the... More

Gift shop is over priced normal tourist junk. Not worth the time, effort or money. Typical tourist trap with nothing of value to offer. VERY VERY... More
