Frontier Town, Montana

Frontier Town is a former locally famous attraction, built starting in 1948 by a visionary Wild West enthusiast named John Quigley. It grew into a rambling self-built structure with 48 rooms, and things like the “largest one-piece bar in the world.” Quigley died in 1979, though the place remained open, run by his family. Financial trouble forced the sale of much of his collection in the 1990s, and the property was sold at auction in 2001 for $190,000, and is now a large, crumbling, private residence, off limits to the public.
