My family of 6 (boys, girls, teens, kids), had so much fun here. The owners started almost all of the collections in the museum, so they have fun stories about all the displays. They were extremely kind and generous giving my kids little gifts on the way out. The gift shop is also amazing, it has all of their collection “cast-offs” at great prices. Prices were also very reasonable. Twenty-six dollars for my family of 6 to enter the museum.

The owners are a super gracious couple, they have something for everyone, from Barbies to Civil War memorabilia and they were so knowledgeable. Such a fun afternoon!!

I was honestly so pleasantly surprised. I loved the displays. The owner Nida has so many stories about everything and she was so sweet to my kids. They loved all the toys. My husband loved all the history. I loved my trip down memory lane.

"I came looking for copper but I found gold". That's how I can summarize my experience in one sentence. This museum is unique, very personal. What you see is only half of the experience. What you can find out about the items on display is equally (if not more) interesting. The owners spent their lives collecting different things, from military equipment to Barbie dolls. They are super friendly and once you're there, just ask them about anything. You'll not only hear a great story, but you'll also find a sense of joy coming from doing things you love, together. The owners are a couple married for 59 years (I write it in 2019) and collecting is something they enjoy since the day one. Truly inspiring! The collections are highly diversified and everyone will find something they enjoy. Last but not least, there's a store with collectible items the owners personally bought. I absolutely loved it as I found things I wouldn't be able to find anywhere else. I only wish I had brought more cash with me :). I think I spent almost 3 hours in the museum (some of it even after official closing hours, but the owners were so polite they didn't even mention it) and I'd really love to visit it again and discover more stories. PS. If there are any journalists out there: this is an awesome case for a documentary!

I have never been in a museum like this. It is not simply a collection of things. You walk in the door and are greeted by the owners - who, in my opinion, are the greatest asset of the entire museum. They know interesting facts about EVERYTHING in the museum. As you walk around, you are crazy not to let them join you. What at first you see as mildly interesting objects, become fascinating as you hear their stories. I am usually uncomfortable being shadowed by people, but in this case, I immediately felt like family. We talked and looked and strolled through a bewildering number of collections. I had dropped in for a quick visit to see what The Collectors Corner was all about. When I looked up several hours had passed. This is a small museum, privately-owned, unassuming and TOTALLY worth visiting.

April Purcella

Love it

I like this little antique shop and museum. It is enough of a curiosity that it is worth the visit just to see some cool old stuff. The little old lady who runs the place is very friendly and she usually has some pretty good stories to tell.

Ric Santos

Took my kid here because of a cub scout project. Before our arrival I was thinking that this would be one of those boring places, but I was wrong. This place is pretty cool. They have so many collections that kept all of us very interested the entire time. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and friendly, a must see place!

Mark Flatland

Great place - a stroll down memory lane!

Anna Ruiz-Gruwell

Have driven by the museum many times, decided to go in and realized what a gem we have here in town. All the collections displayed along with the owners Jim and Nida sharing their knowledge made this a great little adventure.

Lee Holt

We just visited this Museum for the first time, the host and hostess were extremely knowledgeable about every collection in their store, Everything was grouped by set collections, and the displays were fabulous, I will highly recommend this Museum to our friends and fellow travelers.

This place is a MUST. Allow plenty of time because no matter what you are expecting, you will get wrapped up in most of these collections and with the owners of the museum. They know every little piece in the museum and its history. I was not overly ambitious about giving this place a shot but then I didn't want to leave. Even if you aren't a collector, you will find things from your childhood and be overwhelmed with nostalgia!!! Jim and Nida are so incredibly friendly and we're happy to have met them!

It might be small and hidden away in a semi-residential area, but it is well worth visiting. Whatever your collecting interest, it likely is on display somewhere. Each visit I find some new corner to explore and tip-toe into the past. Each fall, they have a special exhibit honoring military veterans. It is well worth the cost of admission.

Gordon Garner

Nice place

David Black

Very knowledgeable but extremely expensive

kalonie linares

Very clean place

Liana Smith

This place is amazing. There is something for everyone. I personally spent 4 hours in here looking at everything and speaking with Nida and Jim (very proud, friendly, knowledgeable oeners). Everywhere you turn there is something new and they even make it fun by having drawers you can pull out with new collections. Such a great place to go either by yourself or with your family. Very glad I took the time to go while passing through.

Clifton Davis

Very "old school" wonderful couple, tons of personal attention.

We're on vacation from San Antonio Texas. My family visited this place today and we absolutely adored every minute of it! The couple that own the museum are the kindest and warmest people that we have met. They were both very knowledgeable about every item in every collection that they have in their keep. My son had an unforgettable experience!!! He will never forget the kind-hearted owner (Jim). And my daughter enjoyed every moment of conversation with Grandma Naida (I hope I spelled it correct). They made it exciting to learn about topics such as WW2, Barbie, Fossils, Disney, Old Hollywood the Civil War, trains, robots, guns... you name it, they have it! It's impossible to stump them because they have such a vast collection of everything. Overall, this museum visit was a highlight to our day thanks to their kind service and loving personalities.

Amazing selection of memorabilia. I visited once for 1.5 hrs. And need to go at least two more times to absorb most of it. The owners/collectors are knowledgeable and they both have been collecting since they were children. They somehow found each other, married and continued collecting together. Imagine this, they have been married for 58 years, so 116 yrs of collaborative collecting plus the years they collected before independently. They are both amazing people and so inspiring as is reflected in their wonderful museum.

Ryan Ayres

Wonderful trip down memory lane... Perfect for folks of all ages. Will visit again with family from out of the area

Pamuela Stronks

Ida and jim are amazing people. The museum is the best museum I have ever visited I recommend it from 1 to 99

Eric R

Jim and Nida have a very neat number of collections on display! This kid-friendly museum has plenty of toys to keep everyone's attention and a great variety of Civil War, WWII, and many other historic artifacts to help you feel how things were back then. Great way to spend an afternoon or longer!

Joscelin Fujii

The owners are so sweet, they made going to this museum such a great experience with their kindness and their great knowledge. I will definitely take my family here sometime!

Loretta Tozier

Awesome collections, very interesting!

Colleen Finuf

I loved it, collectables from many decades, eras, and even from other countries. I even saw some items that litreally took me down on memory lane. Toys that you didn't even knew that existed. The guide from the musum was very sweet, funny, and very well educated on everything you needed to know at the museum. Also, if you're a Disney person, this is an intriguing place to go. So I must say this is a one stop you much visit in Idahofalls.

Very nice and so well done and displayed
