Howdy, welcome to a western experience you won't forget!


Step back in time and into our re-creation of The General Store of the American West. Watson's Wild West is one-of-a-kind and entertaining for all ages!  

There's no other place in America like Watson's Wild West. Try your luck pannin' for GOLD at the Tumbleweed Mine. Enjoy Entertainment by a Cowboy Character, who presents Tall Tales, Dr. Quiggley's Medicine Show, Cowboy Poetry, Humor, a Historical perspective of those times and events, and the thoughts of Will Rogers.

So all you whippersnappers, push through the Saloon Doors and belly up to the bar for an ice cold Sarsaparilla (Root Beer) slid down the bar; and be enthralled by your visit to this great place.
