Reviews of Origen Museum (Museum)

Abraham Vallejo

Awesome state park. They have a flash flood presentation that is awesome. They also give you different perspective on everyday appliance usage and water usage as well as make it very interactive for the kids. Everything is made pretty sturdy to stand up to kids using it. Great place for them to run around and burn energy.

Brent Wilson

The video histories were really informative

Jill Foote

Loved the dinosaurs

Josephine Johnson

The special dinosaur exhibit was awesome! My kids stayed entertained through the other exhibits too. Hands on items for the kids.

Norma Medina

I love this place there is something always to do.

Candace Glover

Great family fun!

Kalia Bellamy

This place was nothing short of amazing. I went with a group of people ages 5-60 & they ALL had a great time! Each area was educational, yet fun and there are plenty of hands on exhibits. The cost of a day ticket included the Nevada Museum as well.

Y Eilfort

Interesting displays!

Stefan Petrov

Visiting the Springs Preserve is such a great experience. History lessons, modern exploration, actual hands on learning. The Origen building provides such a great experience for both adults and childern. As a parent you have to know in order to explain to your kids, and if you don't know its really easy to lean because the museums are so great. This place is actually pretty cool because its modern history and they have exhibits worth seen. So many locals dont know the history of this town and its so cool that you can pick up a lot from just visiting here.

Nahida Arevalo

Big place and nice to explore

Rachel Potts

Awesome place!

LINDA HOPKINS

Enjoyable museum, but (as others have noted) very confusing layout. There is no obvious route through the exhibits, so you end up circling around a lot just trying to see everything. I heard another person say that he had tried every door attempting to find the exit to the building.

Johnathan Stagg

History!!!!

Kevin Waddle

Nice and cool inside!

Flor Margarita

Kids love it here.

Kristin Andrew

This was a great experience. Lots of hands on and interactive stuff for kids and adults. Our grandson loved it! The staff was friendly and eager to help and answer questions. It was a great time for all of us.

Charlie Garcia

Loved it great place to go and get educated on Nevada history. One thing for sure you will be very comfortable in any of the buildings because the air conditioning keeps these buildings so cooooooool. I love it.

Very educational! You can learn facts about Nevada and its past, while having fun! They have tons of fake animals that live here, and some live ones outside!

Roberto Silva

Amazing place, love all the staff they are helpful and they love to explain in detail about displays

Jenny Jacobo

Simply amazing! Fun experience for all ages. Interactive exhibits with learning tools for kids. My 2 1/2 year old said it was cool. I welcome all to come and visit. Price is under $15, unless your a local. Just great fun.

bella mullins

This is the most funest thing ever I really liked learning about how ppl lived back then and then learning about the dinosaurs it is really great

Regina Vele

We went all over the place, except the butterfly's exhibit...but loved it for my 1st time...LOVED IT!!!!.

David Garcia

Good museum, does a very nice job of explaining the true origin of Las Vegas. However, the place is lonely and creepy if you accidentally stay after closing time, and security is lax.

Pat Mischel

I use to live in Las Vegas PRE Mirage days. With Jay Leno. 50¢ Shrimp cocktail at the Golden Gate, sleeping on the ground at Lake Mead. I highly recommend this museum. It bought back fond memories. Where is the neon light bone yard?

Lorenzo Baca

If you live near here, just buy the pass. Absolutely worth it, esp if u have kids. More to do here for a fraction of the cost of an indoor playground pass.

Donna DeStefano

Great grandson really enjoyed playing thete

Amanda Goodavish

Under going repairs at the moment, but we love the traveling exhibits as well as the history of the permanent sections. You can find something new each time you go!

ybalazs Balazs

We only saw a fraction of the park - but we were engaged the whole time. A lot to explore. A great playground. Well worth a visit!

Angelie Bradshaw

Interesting artifacts & geological information on deserts & animal habitats. Kids enjoyed the trip.

We love the Origen Museum and the Springs Preserve! This month there is a live animal exhibit. The handler was so kind and helpful, my kids even got to hold the hedgehog. What a great day we had!

Sheri Ayres

Sad that the dinosaurs are gone but it was a great exhibit.

Abraham Singleton

Great place with exhibits for everyone, from elementary to high school learners. Air-conditioned host to a rotating bunch of cool exhibits.

Tamasa Lucious

Beautiful

Sadia Carone

So many great exhibits! Their Art Gallery is always worth a visit, and I never miss the "Flash Flood" exhibit (stand up close to get splashed!) NOTE: Their front entrance is currently under construction. Look for the employee sitting by an umbrella for directions. Today I spent time outside and learned about desert animals. (Photos attached) I LOVE SPRINGS PRESERVE AND THE ORIGEN MUSEUM. Great for kids, great for adults. Be prepared to take pictures and learn a lot about the desert (Las Vegas history, animals, plants, etc) The black lizard / white lizard photos were taken 30 seconds apart. Mr Black Lizard is over 30°F warmer!

Linda Holpuch

Springs Preserve is a Las Vegas gem

Tim Bennett

Was amazing!!! Can't wait to go back!

Dunia Juarez

Great info about the hoover dam

Mike Grillo

In "Springs Preserves", Nevada's natural history in an interesting experience. A lot to see with some "Big" surprises!

ramon larios

Always something to learn !!!

Pam Martin

My adult daughter & I went to spend the day. We took our time to enjoy all of the interactive displays. The desert garden was one of our favorites. There were live animals there for a featured show. We enjoyed the information for them & even pet a snake (boa) for the first time. Very educational in a fun environment! We visited last summer & after 5 hours still didn't get through everything. When we went this summer, it was to see other features we'd missed. We loved this place! We recommend to all ages!

Barbara Batson

This is a place I could come back to often. And will.

Elijah Stoll

Great exhibits! Nice staff!

Ann Hofner

This is an amazing place. Our 2nd graders loved it!!

Pat Rutledge

Butterfly Habitat was GREAT!

David Collins

Nice venue. Some interesting mini museums, exhibits as you walk the trails. Expensive for out of staters, almost $20 for fee. But,hey! We can loose more in a couple of minutes at the tables.

Fiaz Shah

Excellent place for kids to get educated on the area

Amanda woods

So much for kids to do here and it is always changing.

Geriname 72

Has a dino exhibit right now, cool for kids.

yuwen klepper

Loved the flash floods exhibit. The new mirror maze was a lot of fun, too.

Rob Edwards

Everyone loved the dinosaurs! Park isn't fully ADA accessible though

Judy Friesz

Was so much fun and very impressed

S Williams

We love brining our kids (2 & 6) to the Origen Museum. The exhibits are kid friendly (they can touch them). There is a rotating exhibit area. These exhibits are usually pretty awesome. They also have an outdoor area with some desert animals (my favorite is the fox where you can see into the den). It's a good deal with the annual family passes.

Douglas Friedman

Worth spending a day with the family.

Joe Hoopes

Kind of a small array of dinos but overall pretty cool

Tracee E.

CAN'T WAIT FOR THEM TO FINISH THE RENOVATIONS.
