Visiting from the UK (as part of a 11 week USA / Canada Road trip) we came here hoping to fill half a day.
Entering just after opening at 9am, it was nearly 5pm before we left
Beautifully and sensibly laid out it was, mostly, clear which buildings are relocated originals and which were newly built copies.
The "actor hosts" got a good balance between being in-character and knowledgeable current-day guide when you wanted to ask questions.
Disappointments? We had to ask for a site map at the ticket desk rather than being given one, and didn't even realise until early afternoon that there was a printed "programme" of daily happenings. Meant we missed the gold panning, and we only got the boat commentery by fortunately being on one of the few trips where commentary is given.
