Hight rate 8 location for tourist in Fort Davis, TX, USA
06-2025 Wild Rose Gallery in Hight rate 8 location for tourist in Fort Davis, TX, USAJohn Jay French Museum - Beaumont Angela Miller: This would have been a very interesting place to stop but they were doing renovations. Instead of telling us to come another day they didnt mention it so we drove 30 minutes to only be able to see 3/4 of the house. It was free so that was good. The lady doing the tour was also very informative.
The McFaddin-Ward House Historic Museum - Beaumont Charlene Heinmiller: My husband and I came to Beaumont for the weekend as a quick getaway just for the museums. The McFaddin-Ward House far exceeded our expectations! We called ahead to reserve a docent-led tour. When we arrived we were greeted warmly by the employees and had time to look at the exhibits in the visitors center while we waited for the rest of the tour group. The tour started with a short video about the family. Then we headed to the main house for the tour. Kent was our guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable... he brought the family to life as we wound our way through the home and grounds providing a fascinating glimpse into the life of the very wealthy of the time. We wrapped up our visit with a tour of the Carriage House and the displays about the loyal servants that worked for the family.
The entire experience is free (they wouldnt even accept donations or tips!) and rivals similar historic home tours that can be pricey. Plan to spend at least two hours to enjoy the full experience.
Babe Zaharias Museum & Visitor Center - Beaumont Melissa Maxfield Spek: One star because we couldn’t get in. What museum or visitor center isn’t open on a weekend? Literally been planning this visit for 3 months as we travel across US. What a bummer.
Spindletop Gladys-City Boomtown Museum - Beaumont Justin Miller: Stopped in on a spur of the moment decision and was pleasantly surprised. Staff was super friendly and I could talk to the blacksmith all day. It was very interesting local history and they have some really cool artefacts. The buildings were nice and cool and the price was well worth it. Bathrooms were very clean. I believe it was about $13-$15 for me and my two girls. Takes about an hour to browse through but you could definitely spend longer if you are a history buff. Definitely worth the visit if you are in the area looking for something to do on a hot or rainy day.
Chambers House Museum - Beaumont Sarah Niman: What an amazing place and given an impromptu tour by Carly as we arrived somewhat late. Feel very privileged to have seen this house and very grateful to Carly for taking such good care of us
Cattail Marsh Scenic Wetlands & Boardwalk - Beaumont Joeyws 35: Absolutely wonderful hiking and birdwatching. Great view of Heronry with nesting birds. Saw a huge aligator climb out of a pond and walk over a dike to another pond! Did a sunny 10K Step hike over only half of the park in about 2hrs. Best viewing of Purple Gallinule in all of Texas!
Beaumont Childrens Museum - Beaumont bridgette stott: This was our first visit to the museum. We traveled about an hour to Beaumont and it was well worth the drive. Our kids (3yo, 6yo) had a blast with each exhibit and are already asking to go back. With only a $6 admission price, well be back several times!
Beaumont Botanical Gardens - Beaumont Kathryn Fuljenz: I just had my wedding here and the Botanical Gardens really worked hard to have everything ready to go when we needed it. The space was perfect for a large party or a small intimate gathering like we had! What a perfect kitchen for catering. And the gardens in bloom made for the best picture and atmosphere.
