Beneath the wide Kansas sky, McPherson's beautifully restored Opera House hosts performances that would impress even big-city theatergoers. The McPherson Museum reveals geological treasures alongside local history that's far more fascinating than you'd expect. Turkey Creek Golf Course offers surprisingly challenging play without the wallet-crushing green fees of resort courses. Lakeside Park provides the perfect picnic spot where families gather around the water. The town's small-city charm extends to local eateries where farmers and college professors share tables and conversation. During your visit, take a short trip to see the whimsical Wild Dala Horse Herd, colorful Swedish-inspired sculptures that have become unlikely selfie magnets for visitors.
