Pros: The train ride was fun and had a wonderful view, but very uncomfortable for adults. Cons: I’ve traveled all over the west and have visited lots of these western tourist towns. My wife and kids just love them, but this one is definitely in the rip-off category. The main attraction they advertise is the “gunfight”. Don’t be fooled by... more

They should add Ghost Town to end of the title of this place. We toured the place for about 2 hours in the afternoon and we may have seen twenty other tourists. There were only 4 cowboys workers and two women dressed in western garb. For a frontier town, this was pretty sad. There were no folks in any of... more

This town preys on unsuspecting visitors. On my way to the Royal Gorge parks and attractions, I stopped by at 4:00 on June 8th. I asked about the little train ride - one was just about to leave & the operator said he'd wait for me. At the counter, a boy suggested I buy a 'combo' ticket for the train... more

My wife and I went to Buckskin Joe's on June 1st, 2007. Loved the little train ride out through the pasture to an overlook point where you could view the Royal Gorge. The owner took us on the train ride and his dog rode with him it was great and the view was amazing. Get the combo ticket for $17.00... more

I look forward to the new things that Joe's... more

My family (two little ones, one teenager, my husband, myself and my sister) all loved Buckskin. The kids had a blast watching the shootouts and the magic shows. There is just so much to see here, you need at least a good two to four hours to really enjoy everything. It is worth every penny and make sure you get... more

We took our kids ages 2 and 5 and they had a blast. Make sure you get a combo ticket online so it's cheaper, so you can ride the horse and trolley, then ride the royal gorge railway across the road and visit the ghost town. The actors that put on plays every hour are very talented. Really great place... more
