Trail End State Historic Site


The Trail End State Historic Site is a home built by John B Kendrick. The house is located at 400 Clarendon Avenue, Sheridan, Wyoming. The site offers architectural significance to the area, as well as shows the regional and social history of the early 1900s. The Kendrick family lived in the home from 1913 to 1933. Trail End has the distinction of being the largest historic house museum, though it is not the only house to be turned into a museum. Almost every exhibit on display is artifacts left from the Kendrick family. The house sits on 4 acres of land, which also has trees planted by the family in 1914.

The house was offered to the state in 1982 to be opened as a museum. Guided and self guided tours are possible. Tours are available from March 1st to December 14th. The hours of operation will depend on the time of year. Self guided tours are the most typical option, though groups of 8 or more can reserve a tour guide. To visit the historic site for locals a fee of $2 is charged per person. Non residents are charged $4. Children 17 and under are free, though they must be accompanied by an adult.
