The Heritage of Buffalo Bill Cody LIVES ON Tradition SEE THE OLD WEST IN A NEW WAY
Once considered the world’s greatest showman, the legendary Buffalo Bill Cody called North Platte home for more than 40 years. He loved his hometown and generous- ly supported many local worthwhile causes. Today, the North Platte / Lincoln County Visitors Bureau uses his persona, in the guise of a fun-loving, somewhat slapstick “new”
Buffalo Bill, to introduce all of the fun to be had in Lincoln County to a new generation by awarding attractions and events his cov- eted “Buffalo of Approval”. Buffalo Bill State Historical Park It’s Buffalo Bill’s ranch, of course it gets his Buffalo of Approval. You don’t have to take
his word for it, there’s tons of reasons this State Historic Park is a must-see for visitors. Originally the 4,000-acre Scout’s Rest Ranch, the historic park now consists of 16 acres that contain Buffalo Bill’s home as well as a barn, outbuildings, and a variety of other features. The house is Cody’s 2nd Empire mansion,
