The Museum of the Red River, Oklahoma, United States
4.5 (39 reviews) Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Ranking #1 in McCurtain County Speciality Museums • Ancient Ruins
My Elementary aged boys loved it! A must do to learn about the indigenous in this region and beyond!
So much depth to this museum! A must see if you want to learn more about indigenous and native textiles, pottery, masks, art, agriculture and more. I rate this museum better than the Museum of Indian Arts & Culture and Santa Fe. My 9yr old and 6yr old were thoroughly entranced by the dinosaur, the pottery, the activity center, the art and the vast collection of indigenous tools.

Very cool museum
We were wrapping up our trip and decided to check out the museum. We were very happy we visited as it turned out to be an excellent experience. We didn't know what to expect and were surprised with the variety of type of exhibits. I can't believe it's offered at no charge (donations accepted). If you have some down time while in Broken Bow or other close-by areas, I'd suggest taking a trip to this hidden gem in Idabel.

Beautiful museum
I was surprised that this beautiful museum has free admission. There are lots of neat things in the gift shop and they have lots of books. Right when you walk inside the first thing you see is the impressive dinosaur skeleton. There were drawers full of arrowheads and some mineral displays. Much of the museum is Indian artifacts; baskets, pots and such. There was a large room for children with lots of activities and hands-on things.
