David,So glad you enjoyed your visit to the museum. The hotel key box is very cool. Recently descendants of the former owners, the Greens, came in with a hotel scrapbook and allowed us to scan the photos. If you would like to see more about the old hotel, see the Fall-Winter 2014 newsletter at our website: flaglerbeachmuseum.com. Thanks for sharing your experience!

A quaint little museum in the town of Flagler Beach. No admission charge...just a donation. Interesting local artifacts and pictures. Good job of presenting the history of Flagler Beach. Staff were friendly, inviting, and helpful.

Volunteers here were very nice and informative. She gave some detailed history of the City of Flagler and surrounding area and encouraged us to look around. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and there were many historical pictures that were nice to look at. Nice collection.

Hi there djmoore62,What a wonderful review you have written, but I fear it is not for us, as we are not a campground. :) What we are is the local museum... and I hope that you found us too during your visit -- and had a similar 5 star experience. I thought I should respond to let you know in case you want to re-review on the right attraction. I am trying to guess which local campground you stayed at, but they are all top-notch here, so I will just have to wait and see if you will fill us in. If you did find us at the museum during your trip, please come again. And if not, then find us next trip at 207 S. Central Avenue, 10am-4pm, seven days a week!

Do not miss stopping here. You will learn the history of Flagler and the area. While small it is extremely interesting and the volunteers that work there can provide much of the history.

What a great little gem in Flagler Beach! The volunteers are knowledgeable, the artifacts are neat, and the historic pictures out the area are way cool! My boys love looking at the giant Mastodon teeth! This is a must-visit place when you are in Flagler Beach.

Thanks so much for taking the time to review us. Just a reminder to you and to future visitors: Our volunteer docents are very knowledgeable about the area, so feel free to seek their help in finding just the right shop or restaurant that you are looking for after your museum visit!

Thanks for your positive review about our museum, especially about 'the ladies" who hosted your visit. Our docent hosts are all volunteers who love to meet and greet our visitors. They are always ready to give a full tour or just answer questions, depending on the desires of the guests. Thanks again for the review, and come see us again!

We found this museum, manned by Volunteers, tucked away among the small shops and informational spots. It's not a huge building. It won't keep you for hours... Unless you want to. History is always cool and it's a little break from the hot beach, 5 minute walk down the street.

This museum is very small as its only about Flagler Beach, its history and surrounding areas but it has a lot to see and enjoy. We were there for at least an hour and there are tons of pictures, newspaper clippings, and items relating to Flagler beach, a must see if you are in the area:)

I have been to the historical museum on many occasions and am always pleased to return again.The museum is a great hit with our out-of-town guests, who are constantly surprised with the amount of local history that has been documented and the care of it's presentation. The wall of historical photographs is a favorite for the adults but the kids all love the dinosaur bones. The docents are always very friendly and knowledgeable. Our groups are always greeted promptly and we never fail to learn something new on our most recent tour. I would highly recommend a visit to the museum for the entire family. Even my teenage son enjoys the it! Though the museum is small, you can spend quite a bit of time looking and learning about Flagler Beach. It's a real gem!

Hi Kay,Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Just wanted to let you know that if you return, please request a tour! Most of our greeters let our guests self-guide their visits, but these hosts have a wealth of knowledge about our photos, artifacts, displays, as well as information about other great places to go in our area. Our docents can transform a ho-hum experience into a one-of-a-kind visit. Please do come again!

My wife and I stopped in on our way down to the keys for some fresh air and to enjoy the ambiance. A very nice beach, clean and well maintained, many nice shops and eateries. A nice area to visit!

This place is small and easy to handle in less than 30 minutes. The photos are great and they help bring the history of this cute town to life.
