The museum property is bounded by W. Maple, Hill crest, Harmon and Royer Streets. The block contains two houses, an authentic looking pioneer cabin built in 1925 as a playhouse, and a chicken coop which has been converted to a manuel working shed. The block also features spacious grounds with many trees and is zoned properly. I The brick house at 408 W. Maple was built in 1911 by owners, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Kreighbaum and was last owned by Mr. and Mrs Robert Kreigftbaum. The house features nine rooms and has a completed third floor.
