Bonnie Springs Old Nevada is a great place for the family and there are tons of attractions for the kids.

This little old mining town offers plenty of rousing, rough-and-tumble action, simulated gunfights in the streets, an 1830's melodrama complete with mustachioed villain in its authentically recreated Saloon, and even a public hanging, with an obliging Stuntman swaying in the wind.
