Customer Review
What a gem in Roseville! A very small museum but top quality exhibits that interpret the local Native American cultures very accurately and in cooperation with the people they represent.
The loop trail outside is a beautiful walk through oak woodlands with professional interpretive panels about the native uses of the land and native words for things along the way, and depictions of the petroglyphs that difficult to make out in most lighting situations.
We spent about an hour and a half overall, and I will definitely be back in the spring to see the native plants in bloom!
