A must-see destination on the Lewis & Clark National Historic Trail, the Boat House and Museum features full-size operational replicas of the boats used by Lewis & Clark, displays focused on the expedition and local wildlife and has engaging activities for kids, including a scavenger hunt and quiz.  We show the National Geographic film about the expedition and have a large, interesting gift shop.  Stay for awhile and enjoy our spectacular view of the Missouri River and the nature trail.  We are just steps from Historic Main Street St. Charles and the Katy Trail State Park.
