Fans of novelty museums will appreciate this tribute to Dr John Gorrie (1803–55), an Apalachicola hero. Gorrie developed a method for cooling the rooms of yellow-fever patients and patented the first ice machine, though he died poor and unaware of how his invention would spur modern refrigeration. Kitchy merch features the slogan "Keeping it cool since 1851."
One half of the small museum is devoted to the Florida State Parks system, complete with ranger uniforms and historic photographs.
