Gammons Gulch

John "Jay" Gammons acquired the site of the old West town in the early 1970s. He founded and built Gammons Gulch with help from family and friends, opening the city to film companies and tourists in 1994. The town is constructed using themes and architectural features that reflect Western towns from the 1880s to the early 1930s.

The site has been used for filming many movies and television shows.
