Incredible collection and marvelous display
We are a small but very popular museum focusing on the history of the North Beach coast of Grays Harbor County. We have displays on the Northern Pacific Railway, logging, Quinault Indian Nation and displays on all North Beach locations: Taholah, Moclips, Pacific Beach, Copalis Beach, Ocean City, Ocean Shores, Aloha, Carlisle, Copalis Crossing and Newton. The massive Moclips Beach Hotel with 325 rooms (the biggest hotel on the entire west coast) was destroyed by three storms in the early 1910's. The John Wayne movie, "McQ" was filmed at Moclips and Pacific Beach in 1973. Singer Pat Boone hosted the annual golf classic in Ocean Shores from 1966 to 1969. Our museum has been officially acknowledged as being haunted; not once but twice. We are, "The Little Museum that Could".

Cutest Little Museum
Whatever you do, do not miss stopping by this interesting museum that gives a complete history of the area. Full of information from floor to ceiling. Who knew how much went on over the years in this little neck of the northwest coast?

A Must Stop and See
The museum does not look like much more than an old gas station with a bunch of floats outside, but inside holds an amazing amount of local treasures. They have sections for each of the local coast towns with their history and treasures found or dontated to them. There is no fee, but please leave them a donation, it is well worth it. The Sunday we were they they had a fundraiser and were selling hand-blown glass floats, glass starfish and other glass sea treasures.
