Plan your visit

  • Parking: "We have many accessible parking spaces available in our main parking lot" (Creation Museum accessibility page, [Official], checked Nov 2, 2026).
  • The exhibits: "A series of gradual ramps take visitors through the Creation Museum's main exhibits," ending on the lower level, where an elevator returns you to the main level (same page).
  • Restrooms: "All restrooms throughout the facility and grounds are accessible" (same page).
  • Theaters: "All theaters are accessible," with wheelchair locations and companion seats in the Special Effects Theater and the Planetarium (same page).
  • Rentals: manual wheelchairs are listed at a $15 fee and ECVs at a $45 fee, limited in number and non-refundable (same page). Call to confirm the price.
  • Gardens: "a paved nature trail that is a mile in length including five bridges and a boardwalk" (same page).

Heads-up: the Dino Den isn't accessible. "Virtually every exhibit (except the 'Dino Den') is wheelchair accessible" (Creation Museum accessibility page, [Official], checked Nov 2, 2026).

Heads-up: wheelchair rental prices differ. The official page lists $15 for a manual wheelchair (Creation Museum accessibility page, [Official], checked Nov 2, 2026); a May 1, 2026 TripAdvisor review reports a lower fee ([Secondary]). Call to confirm.

Heads-up: crowds and distance. A May 2026 visitor with a disabled family member wrote it's "NOT for anyone who can't walk miles" and found the crowds a hassle (TripAdvisor review, May 1, 2026, [Secondary]). Consider renting a wheelchair or ECV.
