Fun western town. Beautiful view of the Superstitions. Shoot out in the street is always fun. Cool stores and really good restaurant.Full review by Valerie G

A great experience with the right balance of history and fun! Neat to see the equipment from the past and hearing what crazy means people used back then to make a buck (or 2). Fred, Matt and the Care…Full review by Jillian B

Thanks so much for all the helpful info. It sounds like it won't be worth it for me to take my kids there since it would be over an hour drive there from Cave Creek. I have another train question for any locals or experienced Phoenix area friends. I would like to take my kids on a short train ride just for fun but I also would like a western type attraction (like Rawhide used to be but I know it is only open on holidays now). Does anything similar to this exist? It can be touristy or hokey. I just like to do something with a western feel since its my kids first time in Arizona. They are 8, 5, and 7 months. I have read about Mccormick station.
