We came to see the Butterfly "Papilion" (apparently a play on words of "pavilion" and the French word for butterfly "papillon".) While the Butterfly hut was small, it was beautifully executed with pleasant gardens surrounding it. There is a small fee ($3 per adult) to enter the Papilion gardens; the rest of the park is free. The park features a splash pad, a modern playground, several ponds, plenty of shady trees and picnic tables. The April azalea festival and the Christmas lights are special times to visit.See more..
4.0Five Civilized Tribes Museum(96 reviews) - Interesting info about tribal history Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Speciality Museums • History Museums
The museum is located right next to the VA Medical Center and has its own small parking lot on the opposite side of the museum from the hospital. We spent about an hour touring the museum inside and outside. The ground floor has interesting exhibits about the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Cherokee, Muscogee Creek, and Seminole nations. The second floor has an art gallery with native art, and a room where you can view an informative historical film. We thought the museum was nicely done and worth our time to visit. Admission $4. There are restrooms at the back of the ground floor.See more..

Whow what an interesting museum to visit, incredible history of Country Music for the Oklahoma State and so much knowledge that can be learnt. The curator Ronald Boren was an absolute star, told me so much about all the artists, the area and everything about the complete music scene. I am a big fan of Merle Haggard's song "Okie from Muskogie" so to visit Muskogee and this museum was a real treat. Keep up the great work that you do guys, my visit was one of the highlights of my trip to the USA .See more..
Visited the Three Rivers Museum in March 2013 when I was in town for a funeral. One of the docents / curators was kind enough to give a personal guided tour. The museum displays were undergoing some renovation (workers were building a cut-away display for an interior house display. Most of the other displays have new, informative descriptions typed up. This is a cool museum if you want a brief history of the Three Rivers region. Displays about the plains tribes, the white settlers, the growth of Muskogee, the bad tornadoes in the 1940s are brought to life with photos and artifacts. There is a small gift shop, and the museum is trying to make more displays interactive and hands-on. If you go, ask for Karen: she is a walking encyclopedia of local history.See more..
