This place was a great piece of history.If you are in the area what you most likely will be.If you are taking a cruise ship, it is definitely a cool sight to see. Learning about the natives and the way that they lived and their culture is really interesting. The type of artwork that they use is like none other, and the stories that they depict are truly bizarre. It is a must see for any history enthusiast.

Awesome experience with a well knowledged tour guide who has lived in the area for around 20 years. Clark's Custom Island Tours on Viator.com was fantastic, this was just one of the many stops we made today on the tour. Very cool to learn about how everything was made and what the totem poles actually mean, cause they are really not meant to just be decorative.

A great experience of native history! We took the bus from downtown and it took about 25 minutes to get there. We were able to see inside the joint historical reconstructed building, and had a unique perspective from a Parks Ranger. Thank you again for the enjoyable experience!

Fantastic place to get to experience Totems first hand. Place is beautiful and filled with history. Highly recommend having a guided tour to really experience everything there is to learn about. Wasn't crowded and we were blessed with extremely rare and Sunny day!

What are great place to visit. We had only a short time there as part of a tour but would go back without the tour. Neat place.

There's no visitors center or information booth so there's some information you might not get in the park, such as the stories the totem poles are telling. But there are a lot of signs about the history of carving and the native arts and artists. Beautiful Park and doesn't take super long to get through. The bus from Ketchikan takes you right into the park and it's a short ride from town. The totem poles are beautiful as well!

The guided tour by the state naturist gives you the history of THE TOTEM and other natives artifacts history, facts and details. Breath taking views and great preservation of history. In addition, it has the tallest totem in North America.

It is a small park that has some pieces and art of the Native American culture. You're probably will need to research a little bit what these pieces are to learn more because there is no info shared in the park.
