Zane Grey Museum

The Zane Grey Museum is a two-story house with a wraparound porch built on a bluestone foundation overlooking the Delaware River. Inside are exhibition rooms displaying photographs, manuscripts, and furnishings from Grey's personal collection.

The house was built in 1905 and expanded in 1912 as Grey's writing career grew. He departed for California in 1918 to establish himself on the West Coast.

The house displays personal belongings and manuscripts that show how Grey lived and worked during his time there. Visitors can see the spaces where he spent his most creative years.

The museum operates from May through September on Thursday to Saturday, with winter visits available for those interested in eagle watching. The riverside location means weather can change quickly, so dress in layers.

The building contains a custom-designed writing studio that Grey added after his novel achieved widespread success. This private workspace gives visitors a glimpse into where one of America's most popular authors crafted his stories.
