The Harrison Historical Society Museum sits on 190 acres along Haskell Hill Road (off Maple Ridge Road) and includes an impressive collection of historic buildings and artifacts. The property was generously donated by Mary Thomes Carlson and features an 1810 farmhouse, barn, log shop, fruit storage house, and two equipment sheds—preserving the town's rural and cultural history for future generations.
