Exploring the Nathan Boone Homestead // State Historic Site // Ash Grove, MO [EP 80]

One of the things we love to do is to find historic gems within an easy drive of home. The Nathan Boone homestead absolutely checks that box! You can tour the nearly two hundred-year-old house, pay respects at the cemetery, and walk the beautiful property. The site is just outside Ash Grove in Southwest Missouri. Nathan was the youngest son of Daniel Boone. Nathan and Olive worked this enormous 400-acre property later in their life when Nathan was in his fifties. Nathan and Olive had fourteen children and several of them also lived at the homestead in the 1830s. Step back in time as we walk amongst some of the legends in Missouri frontier history.

Thanks, Gary. The staff did a great job letting everything out. There was no one around when we visited!

Thanks for sharing, nice to know that a lot of the history places are adapting and we can still get out and enjoy.

They've done a great job adapting for sure. This is a great spot to get out and enjoy! :)

Great to see that you made it here to my home! I am a lifelong Ash Grovian and a 5th great grandson of Nathan and Olive. I’m so happy that you enjoyed it.

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Thank you for sharing your comments. It really is an amazing place to tour, and there was no one around when we were there.

Great video you all should vist Watkins mill state park, very nice park and right down the road from the Jesse James home.

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

That is a good suggestion. It is on our list of places to visit and review. Hopefully, we will get to it sometime this year! Thanks for the comment. Safe travels and happy camping.
