Montana isn’t the type of place that needs to come up with quirky manmade attractions or weird experiences to attract visitors. Our national parks, mountains and outdoor adventures do a fine job of that. But there definitely are a few unique spots here you won’t find anywhere else. The 50,000 Silver Dollar Bar in Haugan is one of them.
This place was once called the 10,000 Silver Dollar Bar.

There is an actual bar here, and the food is great…

If you can pry yourself away from all the amazing novelty items, take some time to explore the collection of silver dollars.

There are even motel rooms here for weary travelers who need a place to stay.
