It goes through history, and detailed explanation of the famous Dalton Gang. Kids will love this attraction because it has a play area that is exciting for kids and young teens.

I really liked this little place. It had some interesting artifacts, an interesting docent, and the feel of what the old west was like. It also gives a sense of how isolated things once were. Really worth the time and a great roadside attraction

Small and not a whole lot to see, but an interesting part of history, so stop if you have a little time. The tunnel has been made larger as it was just a crawl space back in the time. Lots of historical clippings tand articles in the museum. It's a part of the old west and worth the stop.

There isn't an awful lot here to see. The museum doesn't have anything from the Dalton Gang or family. There is a tunnel to the house which now has been made for easy access. It originally was dirt and 3 feet high. The house does have items belong to one of the Dalton family daughters.

I drove through Meade late one afternoon after it was closed, but this place looked cool and I will return to see it from the inside. I took pictures from the street and it looks very interesting as a history nut

Ok so there is no pure proof that the Dalton Gang used this home and escape tunnel to the barn as a hideout, but that doesn’t make this place any less fascinating for lovers of the Old West. If you are traveling through Meade, KS and have an hour or so to spare, stop and discover the history of the Dalton family and gang as well as see cool pieces of history. You can visit the house of one of the Dalton sisters and the tunnel that leads from the house to the barn. Entering through the barn/gift shop, you take the tunnel to the small, old prairie house. The house is tiny, interesting to see, and contains much of the story of the Dalton family. Take the tunnel back to the barn and go upstairs to visit the museum which has more Dalton history as well as remnants of the old west, guns, books, animals, etc… Some cool stuff. The tunnel has been restored and it’s fun to see. There is also another old house that was moved to the property that gives another glimpse of what prairie life was like for those a little better off. For $5.00 the Dalton Gang Hideout is well worth the price of admission.

A nice way to break up a days travel. The two headed calf was kinda creepy but the restrooms were welcome and available at no charge.Snacks were available and I have not seen candy cigarettes in YEARS.

We always stop at historic places no matter how weird and this one was different. We paid $5.00 for the tour and the tunnel was really cool and the house set up was pretty good. Even though there were stuff that weren't from the Dalton Gang and families it was still pretty good. We went back to the bar and checked out upstairs and that was odd. It had a lot of taxidermy animals, saddles, branding irons, and barbwire. Along with some other artifacts that were kind of interesting. It did have one wall about the Dalton family which was nice. Overall I was glad I stopped and learned the history and was able to see it. Its a one visit kind of place. Once you've seen it, your good.

The museum was very interesting with lots of info about the area. It's quite interesting to learn about the Dalton gang who were outlaws in the 1800's. The escape tunnel from the house to the barn was interesting, even though it had to be reconstructed.

We were on our way to Greensburg to see the Big Well and saw signs for this so we decided to stop in. I think for $12 that was a little pricey we could have gotten a tour. It was neat to see the museum and the taxidormy and they had some sort of little town set up outside for some reason that we played in but for the cost and no tour it was just ok.

History is not sure that this is the actual Dalton Gang Hideout, but it's suppossed to be near it at least. This place has been modernized inside. I understand the escape tunnel had to be modernized with concrete floor, sides and roof, but it takes away from the experience.

The infamous Dalton Gang rode as outlaws in the late 1800's. At the Dalton Gang Hideout in Meade Kansas you can walk thru the tunnel from the barn to the original little house and relive the getaway route of the gang. Dalton days is in September and there are re-enactments and living history performed. The historical museum downtown is well worth a visit,also. You walk down a boardwalk to look in rooms to see how life used to be lived. A livery stable and saddle collection is in this museum. Dalton Gang Hideout has been open since 1940. Also, has museum upstairs in the barn.

Didn't know what to expect but just a couple blocks off the road we were taking. Glad we stopped. If you stop, don't just look. You have got to ask the resident curator and historian for the stories behind the Dalton Gang and anything else western. He has more fascinating stories based on fact than you probably have time to listen. I don't think I've ever run into a cowboy and western historian before. The museum is filled with authentic western gear, old guns, and documents. The site is a perfect place to share these treasures and preserve the history. If you like western history, you may not want to leave. If you don't know if you like western history, you'll be fascinated and entertained by the stories and artifacts.

This was a great place to visit for cowboy history! They have great artifacts and information and the tunnel going in between the two places was a blast as a child to pretend I was an outlaw hiding from the police!

this is a nice stop over spot while traveling, doesn't take long to do. You can picnic here, and take a lot of cute pictures in their western like town. The museum and escape tunnel costs $4 each to go through with a family/group limit amount discount. The gift shop is small but has cute items for all ages.There are a lot of signs to lead you here, it is a very small town, nothing much else there. Did find a nice antique store.
