The White-Pool House stands as the oldest remaining structure in Odessa. Built in 1887, restored during the 1979 - 1984 time period.
Rooms in the house are interpreted in two major time periods: The 1880's, "pioneer era" representing the time of occupancy by the White family, and the 1930's "oil boom era", representing the time of occupancy by the Pool family.
The museum complex features an Eclipse windmill and wood tank, barn replica, farm out-buildings, and an outhouse of handmade blocks from 1887. The barn also houses a permanent collection of horse drawn farm equipment.
