burt reynolds & friends museum

Used to love to take visitors there. Each and every time we would visit, we would see something new. It's such a shame they tore it down, to build the monstrosity that is now known as Harborside. A little bit of Jupiter history was lost. Sad to see it gone.

It was a great exhibit of Burt's film memorabilia, and the stage presented some great shows. Unfortunately, the location has been torn down to accommodate a hotel for Jupiter Riverwalk, and some of the assets have been moved up to Stuart. Hopefully, they'll be able to find a venue back in Jupiter to celebrate our local star!

It's a small museum with a lot of memorabalia packed in from Burt Reynolds. He also holds acting classes there. If you love Burt, then you'll love his museum.

Because of construction along US 1 and the Intracoastal Waterway the building that housed the museum was torn down. No information as to where the museum will be located or if it will reopen. Website indicates that it is temporarily closed.

I stopped by the museum one day about 4:30 it closed at 5 and the lady told me about the donation but informed me it would take more than a half hour to c the place, I told my friend let's stay and look fast. Statred the tour and went down a little hallway to look at some photo's and there was a door to the outside at the end of the hallway all of a sudden the dooe opened and who do u think walks in Burt himself he was very nice to us let us stay a little longer and gave us autographes and pictures. Made myself and my friends trip to Florida something to remember. Burt is a gentle man with a good grip am now a bigger fan.

The museum was fine - nothing special. I think the admission price was $2. They demolished the museum for a development of some sort. Not sure if and when and where the new museum may be located.

Burt lives on in the hearts of his fans! The musuem was a bit self indulgent..lots of photos, but not a lot of narrative. Would have enjoyed a little bit more info.

I would never go back there again. It was boring and as usual Burt Reynolds made himself the center of attention but that goes with his well known oversized ego. Even if you like Burt Reynolds you'd still probably be board. I think he started this just to try to make money since he is now a has-been.........

Never knew Burt reynolds until i visited the museum. Very talented and giving man. His museum is inside a former bank location. Very informative narrators. Provide you with alot of information. Dolly parton donated a carriage to him that is on display there. He Did every stunt himself in his movies. Acted in hundreds of movies , was on many covers of magazines. There is a stage inside museum where he still provides acting classes that he perrsonally conducts to inspire upcoming actors, actresses. He lives in nearby Hobe sound. You can sometimes see him around town. Hes 76 now. Still looks good. Had to adopt a son because ex wife Loni anderson never wanted children. BertComes from a law enforcement background which his adopted son is involved in.. Def a nice small charming museum to checkout...

Lots of interesting memories about Burt and his accomplishments.Photos from his movies and props from his old movies were also on display. He also gives acting classes there.

This is a real surprise in the world of Museums. If you enjoy old hollywood and want to see a place that shows a success story check this place out. If you are a fan of Reynolds or just of movies in general, you won't be sorry. Also great gift shop on location!

When we decided to stay in Jupiter one night I looked around at what to do. I couldnt believe I found this because my b/f is hooked on Cannonball Run. We decided to go check it out as it was only $5 to get in. The lady that met us at the door, I want to say Carmen but I could be wrong, was super nice and gave us a quick 5 minute background and tour of the place from the first room. The museum has all sorts of photographs signed by celebrity friends and a lot of photos of burt and his family. It was really neat to see some of the photos in there as well as movie memorabilia. The canoe from deliverance is there as well and from the photos it looks like burt visits the place. Overall it is a net palce to visit if you are in jupiter for a day or just passing throught, we were in and out in an hour. Only opens from 11-4pm on Th, F, S, Su.

Burt Reynolds was the hottest entertainer going back in the 70's and 80's and it was fun to go through his museum in Jupiter. Lots of photos and artifacts to browse through including some of his high school and college stuff here in Florida. The building is hard to get to because of it's location and road construction.

You would not think there was a museum inside the building when you arrive nor would you think there was anyone visiting as the entrance is on the side of the building from where you enter the parking lot. However, I can tell you that once you step inside, it's an entirely amazing experience filled with Burt's life history, his legendary movie memorabilia as well as his family and friends. The people that greet you are not only warm and friendly but extremely knowledgeable and you just can't stop listening in awe to the stories you are told. If you have ever been a fan of Burt Reynold's, this is a must see!! Although I have always loved his acting, I have to say that his personal life is just as impressive.. from childhood to now, just an amazing man!!

We're fans and kept driving by this place going back and forth to the beach so we decided to stop in. It's technically free but we were "encouraged" to donate $5 at the enterance. Turns out it was worth it. The volunteers were very knowledgable and friendly. They took time to answer questions about Burt's career and personal life. They also offer for beginning and advanced acting classes for a fee. You could easily spend 30-40 mins looking at some of the cool exhibits. Worth a trip especially on a rainy day. Definitely reccomended if you are a fan.
