Shoal Creek, Missouri Weekly Gazette


Shoal Creek Living History Museum
Located in Hodge Park - Kansas City, MO
Operated by
Shoal Creek Association
Completely Volunteer
not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) Organization


Shoal Creek is nestled quietly on 80 acres out of the 1,000 acres that makes up Hodge Park. The museum has twenty-one structures with thirteen authentic 19th century buildings dating from 1807-1885. Our historic log cabins and homes were relocated from surrounding counties to create a village setting.

The grounds are open daily, dawn until dusk.  **Please Note**  The buildings are only open during special events. Enjoy self guided tours by using our Walking Tour Guide Brochure which has building details. Brochures are also located at the front entrance information box, kiosk and the mercantile front porch. Picnic under the large shade trees or venture out on the walking trails throughout Hodge Park. Catch a glimpse of the bison near the entrance of the museum.


Visit during our special events! The buildings are open and re-enactors bring the village to life with skits, skirmishes, and demonstrations. There is an admission fee for the special events.  Proceeds from these events go to the museum to provide educational programs, building restoration, museum operations, and grounds beautification.
