The park was opened on Memorial Day weekend 1966 by photography studio magnate Myron M. "Mike" Weiss, Sr. as a built-to-scale Dodge City, Kansas, complete with a saloon, general store, Pony Express office, opera house and casino, undertaker, and barber shop, highlighted by cowboy actors who staged gunfights at high noon.

Gandy dancers laid almost a half-mile of narrow gauge railroad track for a train to carry visitors around the park.

In addition, Weiss surrounded the town at the center of the park with an Indian village, a gold mining area, and a petting zoo with pony rides.

In addition, the park was located on a two-lane country road seven miles from the Florida Turnpike, the nearest major highway at the time.

Faced with mixed box office results and depleted cash operating reserves, the park closed in February 1968.
