Today, exhibits at the Walker Tavern historic site interpret Michigan's frontier settlement and stagecoach eras during the first half of the 19th century. The tavern includes an 1840s parlor, barroom, dining room and kitchen. The visitors center and reproduction barn offer exhibits on topics related to the people who traveled the crossroads at Cambridge Junction.
