History
The site is a remnant business district of a town that formed where two railroads crossed, then withered as logging faded, as the automobile replaced the train, and as Appleton grew.[2] Structures include the 1884 Haese General Store,[3] the 1908 Hunt hardware store, a summer kitchen,[4] and the 1908 Haese gas station.
Currently, the site serves as a museum.[5] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 and on the State Register of Historic Places in 1989.[6]
