The museum encompasses nearly 600 acres (2.4 km²) of rolling wooded hills. In addition, there is a restaurant on the lower level and conference space on the upper level of the Clausing Barn, an octagonal barn. There is also a gift shop and trams that run to the Scandinavian and German, African American, and Crossroads Village respectively.

What is termed the "Yankee Village" there (see "Yankee" above) also contains "non-Yankee" buildings. Specifically, the Sisel shoe shop (Czech); Grotelueschen Blacksmith Shop (German); and the Peterson Wagon Shop (Scandinavian).
