Animal Crossing: New Horizons has captured the hearts of gamers worldwide with its charming gameplay and the opportunity to create the perfect island paradise. However, as you start your adventure on your deserted island getaway, you might find some facilities locked or inaccessible. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to unlock and expand the key facilities in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, including the Museum, the Able Sisters' Clothing Store, Resident Services, and the Campsite.

1. Expanding Resident Services

At the beginning of your journey, you'll find that Resident Services is just a simple tent. However, as you progress through the game and achieve certain milestones, it will undergo several transformations. After paying off your initial loan to Tom Nook, Resident Services will be upgraded to a proper building, giving you access to more features and services. Later on, the building will expand even further, allowing you to access additional functions like customizing your island flag and changing the island tune.

2. Unlocking the Museum

Blathers, the owl curator, will make his debut on your island once you've pitched your tent and started to gather bugs and fish. However, the Museum won't be available right away. To unlock it, you'll need to find and donate at least five unique creatures (either bugs or fish) to Tom Nook. Once you've reached the donation quota, Blathers will set up his tent and lay the groundwork for the Museum's construction. Over the next few days, the Museum will be built, showcasing your insect, fish, and fossil collections, becoming a hub for knowledge and exploration on your island.

3. Welcoming the Able Sisters' Clothing Store

To add a touch of fashion to your island life, you'll want to unlock the Able Sisters' Clothing Store. Sable, Mabel, and Labelle will visit your island from time to time, offering a selection of clothing items, but that's not the full store experience. To unlock the permanent Able Sisters' shop, you'll need to make several clothing purchases from the visiting sisters. After spending enough bells and showing your support, the sisters will decide to set up a shop on your island, offering an extensive range of clothing, accessories, and even custom designs for you to enjoy.

4. Inviting Special Visitors to the Campsite

The Campsite is a fun addition that allows special visitors to stop by and stay temporarily. To unlock the Campsite, you'll need to progress in the game until Resident Services upgrades to a building. After that, you'll meet a new villager named "K.K. Slider," who will play a concert on your island. Following the concert, Tom Nook will introduce the Campsite as a new feature. Additionally, there will be times when you'll encounter unique visitors at the Campsite, and if you persuade them to move in, they might become permanent residents on your island.

As you immerse yourself in the delightful world of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, unlocking and expanding key facilities is a crucial part of creating a thriving island paradise. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you'll be able to access the Museum, the Able Sisters' Clothing Store, Resident Services, and the Campsite. Remember, each facility brings its unique benefits and enriches your island life, making your journey as an island representative all the more enjoyable. Happy island living!
