Review:
Originally settled in 1852, Historic Forestville is a fascinating ghost town that was abandoned by every single one of its inhabitants by 1910. The town is now a living museum designed to look exactly like it did in 1899, and it features costumed actors going about their business in the town's general store, garden, homes, and offices. A 45-minute guided tour of the site is included in the admission fee, and visitors can also browse the educational exhibits in the Visitors' Center, enjoy a picnic in the reconstructed barn, and borrow historic lawn games to play on the grounds.
