Frontier Movie Town - Kanab, Utah - Theme Park, Restaurant, Gift Shop, Museum, Microbrews


The owners of Frontier Movie Town have created a Wild West town complete with bank, jail, ranch house, and bunkhouse. There are recreations of sets for movies filmed in the Kanab area over the years. You'll also find buildings from the sets of Disney's 1973 comedy-drama One Little Indian, the 1948 classic Western Black Bart, the 1997 crime-action flick Truth or Consequences, N.M., and Clint Eastwood's 1976 hit The Outlaw Josey Wales, and several others.

You'll find this Frontier Movie Town at 297 West Center Street in Kanab, Utah. There is no cost for admission. Daily summer hours are from 9am to 9pm. The rest of year hours are from 10am to 6pm.

Besides the movie sets you will find the Hole in the Wall Saloon serving a large selection of micro brews on tap. There is also an eclectic western themed gift store. This souvenir shop offers a wide variety of Native American arts and crafts, cowboy hats, coonskin caps, and other keepsakes. For Western entertainment and cowboy grub, there are often chuck wagon cookouts available. If you are traveling with a group, don't forget to check on a group discount for the dinners and call ahead for scheduled times. You will need about an hour to tour the whole town. More if you spend time at the saloon, gift shop or dinner.

An online reviewer in May 2009 said, "For the wild west movie lover, this place is worth checking out. It's free admission with some of the actual sets that Clint Eastwood was in.''

And an online reviewer from May 2003 said, "We often look for places to visit on the web before leaving. This place was just a fluke. We passed traveling south on 89.Loved it, loved the dinner show and the people are a hoot. Tied the horses' right outside of our room and Sang and danced all night. The movie director wasn't there but we made our own movie anyway.''
