Experience life on the Kansas frontier. James and Lucinda Mahaffie arrived in Olathe, Kansas Territory, in 1857. The stone farmhouse they built in 1865 still stands, with its unique arrangement of a dining hall and kitchen in the cellar that served travelers and stagecoach passengers.
Mahaffie's living history program brings their story to life with operating stagecoaches, cooking demonstrations, period-appropriate livestock, and exhibits in the visitor center and Agricultural Heritage Barn.
Mahaffie Stagecoach Stop and Farm is the only working stagecoach stop left on the Santa Fe Trail. Ride an authentic stagecoach during the living history season, help with farm and kitchen chores, visit the blacksmith, and explore the Agricultural Heritage Barn with various horse-drawn vehicles, including a chuckwagon prairie schooner and an original stagecoach.
Horses, oxen, chickens, pigs, and goats live on the farm just as they did in the Mahaffies' day.
