Butterfly Lodge Museum

Fodor's Review:

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Butterfly Lodge Museum was built as a hunting lodge in 1914 by John Butler, the husband of "Aunt Molly" (of Molly Butler Lodge fame), for author James Willard Schultz and his artist son, Lone Wolf, a prolific painter of Indian and Western scenes. There's a small gift shop. Take time to watch the surrounding meadow come to life with beautiful butterflies, from which the lodge got its name.
