Jeff Schmidt: Unbelievably we drove past it once before circling back. I mean, how do you just pass up a giant soup can?
Of course we had to take a photo.
Catsur na: Due to construction the exhibits have been moved next door to the John Ben Shepperd building aka the Presidents Museum. Its totally free. You can currently see a small portion of the Presidents archival material as well as 2 exhibits from the Ellen Noel museum. The quilt exhibit was particularly unique and interesting. They also have a nice gift shop with soaps, fancy lotions, jewelry, blown glass knickknacks, stuffed toys and a few shirts. Also, dont forget to check out one of the Bush houses behind the museum. Definitely worth a visit, what else are you going to do in Odessa?
Dawn Greene: Waited in line for 45 minutes on Memorial Day to be told the admission fee is CASH ONLY, which is not listed anywhere on the website, so I asked if I left to go get cash with two toddlers, could I come to the front of the line, since I had already waited. Was told, “No, you have to get in line again.” SERIOUSLY PARKS AND RECREATION, DO BETTER ODESSA!!!!
Kevin Wang: Cool attraction by UT Permian Basin
Outside of the stones themselves, there’s a couple informational placards on the history of Stonehenge and how this replica was put together
Gabriel enriquez: Extremely fascinating to go too. I went here about 2-3 years ago. I remember it being pretty big and they had a lot of artifacts in their collection. Some of their rooms can be a bit confusing like their animatronic Washington. But apart from that it is honestly a 4/5
A. A. Akhtar: I cant evaluate the museum, because we were there on Memorial Day, & the museum is always closed on Mondays. I enjoyed seeing the plants and lizards, so different than what I see in Pennsylvania. There were a number of wildflowers blooming, possibly due to thunderstorms the previous day or so.
The Crater itself isnt overwhelming, because it has filled in considerably from the elements. And yet I still found it intriguing.
