Wonderful Place to visit in North Platte, Nebraska lot a history here at Scouts Rest home of Buffalo Bill. They have a lot of items from his Traveling Show and information on his life. Very Interesting and cheap Family attraction for the tour.

Fascinating look at a historical person. Incredible value for the cost!!! This would cost considerably more elsewhere.

Anne Finley

We got there at 8. Found out it didn't open until 10. Went and had breakfast. Came back and sat on the porch from 10 until 10:20. We could hear someone in the house. Finally just left. We were so very dissatisfied.

Closed but barn open. House needs repair snd paint. Barn had very cool old photos and wagons.

Parking okay. The location itself is a one time deal. Once you've seen it. That's it. No since seeing it again unless decorated for Christmas.

LaRue Jackson

Great place to take your kids

Good step back in history

Jim Carr

House was cool to look at, and the barn was impressive. Staff lady was friendly. The barn was impressive. The house fee and the separate state park parking fee is silly, but everyone needs to make a buck these days.

DAVID I. Klein

GREAT PLACE. TOO BAD THEY NAIL YOU FOR A OUT OF STATE PARK PASS. (TO PARK) THEN YOU HAVE TO PAY ALSO TO SEE THE RANCH.

ron wiley

A national treasure please go see this place if you're in the area even if you're just driving by

I visited Scout’s Rest Ranch in July 2018 and it was a wonderful experience. The docents were welcoming and the Second Empire mansion that Bill Cody built is beautifully maintained and full of memorabilia. The ranch itself is a sylvan paradise and the barn is an experience in itself with photos and posters from Buffalo Bill’s Wild West. The baby buffalo with his parents added charm. I am so glad the State of Nebraska bought this property and keeps it looking spiffy and authentic. Mr. Cody planted cottonwood trees and they are still thriving. One extra pleasure was seeing Frank North & Bill Cody’s original log cabin that used to be located on their ranch near the Dismal River. It’s rustic and adds to the property’s allure.

Great history!

linda brazier

The park was beautifully maintained. The receptionist on 6-11-18 was very rude. Need to find another job for her.

Joseph Mathews

It is only open on.weekends. We did not get to your home.

Debbie LoCascio

This was Buffalo Bill's retreat from touring in his Wild West Show. The property contains his home, barn, and a small log cabin from days gone by. The Victorian-styled home is well kept and each room contains a lot of historical items from Buffalo Bill, his family and friends. Lots to see and learn here. The barn is HUGE and also contains memorabilia from the Buffalo Bill days. Other than that, there really wasn't much else to see here.

Amy Marsh

It was great if you like the West and it's history, which my husband loves to see & do. Collects books of western history. Go see it!!

David Collins

Lovely home, interesting museum.

Esna Vazquez

Very informative and beautiful place.

Cassandra Lawrence

It was beautiful and big. I loved the architecture and the barn was great. There are some amazingly huge trees too.

Paul Murray

For 2 Dollars it's a great little museum to visit . Me I'm from the UK so it's cool to find about what you learnt of in your youth

Paula

Please update your site with the correct hours for touring the house. We drive 100 miles, trying to time a visit there because it said it opened at 8am, but we had to wait until 10am to tour the house. It added 2 more hours to our very long trip to Denver.

Frances Brown

The house was unexpected with elegant furnishings. The barn with wagons and memorabilia of the wild west show is a short walk from house. There is also a State Park entrance fee since the house is now part of the park system.

Lora Lucas

Very interesting especially after a research paper Annie Oakley. A great stop along a log drive through the state of Nebraska.

Jeff Athey

Dusty trails pumkin fest was great

Mitch Hudson

Wife loved the home

Mary Ellingson

Great place to visit.

Moxie the dog

It's his homestead. You have to pay a park fee which was $6 and adults are $2 each.

Crystal Klein

Neat place... worth the stop!
