The Lewis and Clark Expedition camped near the park location on October 16, 1805 as they made their way down the Columbia River. While the site doesn't have any connection to Sacajawea's tribal heritage, it's an historic gathering spot for hundreds of members of the local Native American tribes. The museum was built in the 1930s as a Works Project Administration project and features exhibits on the Expedition and the Native Americans who lived in the area at the time.
The museum is accessible. A paved path with interpretive signs goes from the parking lot to the museum.
The parking lot is large enough for any vehicle. Park 46.20018, -119.0402
