McCleary Museum at Carnell House has been in existence only a few years, but has a good display and information on the early history of the McCleary area and logging in eastern Grays Harbor County. The museum is staffed and supported by volunteers from the community. The museum is open between noon and 4 pm weekends during the Summer only. Guided group tours are available throughout the year by arrangement.
