Free Admission (donations are welcome)

Simpson Mercantile ceased in early 2006 and became Skeleton Creek Productions and Simpson's Old Time Museum. The brothers also needed a location to film their adventures, so they constructed a saloon, boardwalk, hotel lobby and room, jail and marshall office and other business fronts in the 90,000 sq foot building. They are planning to add a 100 seat church/school house, general store and bank. If you have several hours to spare, they offer tours at no charge.
