Bilke’s Western Museum

Bilke’s has several interesting features that tourists find entertaining and educational, a full size mural of the longhorn cattle drive on the side of our building plus a western museum located upstairs. This is a personal collection of Jim Bilke and features many antique bits, spurs, saddles, and more.
