Top places to visit

1. 4.5 The Old Round Barn (324 reviews)
   - Historic Old Round Barn on Route 66
   Sunday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Historic Sites
   
   
   We were in the area to check out a few places in Arcadia, Oklahoma. We stopped to check out this part of history. We parked across the street but then saw they have a parking lot behind the Red Round Barn. There were a few other visitors but the place is big and we could easily move around to read about the things we saw. Interesting architecture inside of the Round Barn. Lot of cool items. They have restrooms, (neither of us used), so I can not comment on cleanliness. They also have some items for sale, like a yard sale as well as gift shop items. You have to go up stairs to enter the Barn and it was rather hot up there. It did not take us long to see everything. Glad we stopped to check it out. See more..
   
2. 4.5 OK County 66 - John's Place (34 reviews)
   - John's County 66, well, because he could

   Meeting and visiting with John made my day. He has such a wonderful collection of 66 memorabilia displayed throughout the building that it really takes time to absorb it all, and that time is well spent. Memories of are in each and every item. What a wonderful representation of America and the Mother Road. See more..
   
3. 4.5 Oklahoma County Auto Trim and Mini Museum (10 reviews)
   - Most Interesting place along RT66
   Spent < 1 hour Speciality Museums
   
   
   John, the museum guy here, showed us around the place and told history of some of the items. He bought this piece of land 15 years ago and started building and collecting the coolest stuff. Many things here are his versions of RT66 attractions across the country. The museum is open if the gate is open. There is a 1914 Ford, a "love bus". There is a front half of a VW coming out of the 2nd story wall that you can sit in and view the back half of it buried across the way. Sit in the booth of a 50's diner/drive-in movie. We spent about 45 minutes looking around and when we go there again I'm sure we'll see things we missed the first time. There was no admission charge. John is a super-nice guy. See more..
   
4. 4.0 Route 66 Abandoned Gas Station (5 reviews)
   - VERY VERY COOL
   Spent < 1 hour Historic Sites
   
   
   Beware, it is RIGHT ON route 66 and you can miss it as you zip by. There are places down the road east or west to turn around. Very cool, very old gas station. Well worth the stop for photos. They do have a sheet placed in a frame that tells the history. It's a bit weathered, but as of this summer (2021) is still readable. See more..
