Exhibits trace the island's early history, pioneer settlers, and cultural heritage, including the adjoining Belle Haven Cottage and the island's original City Jail, both preserved on the property. Free admission; donations welcomed. Hours vary by season, with shorter morning-only hours April through December. Closed all of September.
