Har-Ber Village can be found on the scenic shoreline of Grand Lake O'The Cherokees of Northeastern Oklahoma just outside of Grove, Oklahoma about an hours drive from Bella Vista, Arkansas. Jean was the only person from our group that had visited the village but we trusted her judgment when she said that we would like it and like it we did. It is not just a collection of "pioneer buildings and their furnishings" but a collection of a lot of collections. Can you image a collection of 700 types of barbed wire? There was pottery, bricks, dresses, hats, military items, Indian artifacts, farm equipment and much, much more. To see more about Har-Ber Village go to http://www.har-bervillage.com/home.html

The buildings were taken apart at their original locations and rebuilt when they arrived at Har-Ber Village. Many times original furnishings were found in the buildings sometimes stored in attics.
