Great place. A lot to be learned here, plus a beautiful setting. Glad I came!
I was offered a tour of the museum by a very nice volunteer. I do not recall his name but he was very knowledgeable and had a lot of insights on both the artifacts on display and the different exhibits.
Interesting place to if you enjoy water fowl or wood work & art. Recently expanded to accommodate large functions.
The last room is nothing short of mind blowing. The carvings are so insanely intricate it's hard to believe they aren't real. I mean, if the whole museum was only that last room, it'd still be worth the price of admission.
Word to the wise for the uninitiated... if you're going here on a lark it's actually quite popular - this place is like the world epicenter and leading authority on all things wooden duck, and so it's likely you will find yourself alongside other people who are taking this very seriously. Overall it's super cool and highly recommended.
A very interesting experience, even if you're not an enthusiast. Fate brought my husband and me here while on vacation. We saw the signs and vaguely remembered reading about the place online so we went - the first room was filled with very old basic looking ducks, which sortve makes you think "oh god what have I gotten myself into?" I mean, neat but not 'price of admission' neat... But fear not traveler, it gets progressively more interesting!
Do you like ducks? Do you like duck art? Do you want to see thousands of them? Are you old,rich, and boring? Are you old, rich, boring and like ducks or duck hunting? You'll love this museum. It's a really niche museum, that isn't geographically specific. It's *exactly* what you are looking for. It doesn't matter the subject, it's a great museum.
