Great place to take your family and spend a few hours walking the paths through the curated sections. The sections are mostly based on children’s stories, books, and fairy tales. You can tell a lot of time and care went into bringing these stories to life and providing an experience that feels special for the family. The walking path has good signage and directions, there are bathrooms, and it’s quiet. The cost was $12 for adults and free for kids under 2 years old. I highly recommend if you’re trying to find something new (a change from your neighborhood park or swimming pool) and want to have a fun experience with your family!

Lakefront Brewery is an absolute gem and such a fun experience from start to finish! The tour really showcases the history and heart of the brewery—you get to see the tanks up close and learn about the process, but it never feels boring. The guides keep it lively, funny, and full of personality. The nods to Milwaukee culture (like the Laverne & Shirley) make it feel extra special and unique to the city. The riverside patio is a highlight—it’s such a perfect spot to enjoy a fresh pint while watching the boats drift by. Inside, the atmosphere is just as memorable, with character-filled spaces covered in guest signatures and a cozy vibe that makes every corner feel like it has a story. And of course, the food and beer did not disappoint! The cheese curds were absolutely spot on—crispy, melty, and delicious with the dipping sauce. Pair that with one of their local brews and you’ve got a true taste of Milwaukee. What really sets Lakefront apart, though, is the staff. Everyone we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do. If you’re in Milwaukee, Lakefront Brewery is a must. Between the history, the river views, the food and drinks, and the incredible staff, it’s the kind of place you’ll want to come back to again and

Wonderful museum with a fantastic collection and rotating special exhibits. Absolutely stunning building. Big enough to cover lots of artistic territory, but spacious and curated amazingly well so that you don't feel overwhelmed. Cafe on site. We spent about 4 hours there and saw about 75% of the exhibits. Strongly recommend.

Although factory tour was not available we had so much fun in the retail store. There is a lot to discover - all kinds of flavors and other jelly bean items! Staff is super friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit for young and older people

The last of a dyin’ breed of SUPER MALLS. If you have not been to this mall yet, please be advised that this is one of the PREMIER malls across all of America. I’m not exaggerating friends, Woodfield mall has such a lively clean and well crafted atmosphere from any entrance you walk in from and it is always filled with people and you will find even on weekdays many people strolling through this mall with a smile on their face. Need a major department store that’s not available in other malls? Woodfield mall got it. Seeking to find the most unique and amazing shops, kiosks, restaurants, quick bites, nail salons, massage parlors, and/or you want your eyebrows done? Woodfield mall has it all. This mall is so large that you will get lost in it but they have a QR code as soon as you enter that you can use to pull up a map - or you can do as I do and wander the mall and find niche shops that truly can’t be found anywhere else. Even the Kiosks in between the malls are amazing and diverse whether you need a watch battery replaced or the latest new gadget or gizmo, Woodfield Mall has it. Take your Kids, Take your Wife/Husband/Partner, take everyone or go solo but just go to this mall and experience the infinite possibilities within. I’ve been here so many times, over 100+, and I still- to this day stumble upon amazing shops I never even knew existed. This mall is extremely well maintained and the atmosphere will enliven the soul - it does for me. It even has a newer spot for you E-Sport players out here, come on now y’all, this is THE BEST MALL in AMERICA (in my opinion). Check it out, you won’t be disappointed!

The performances at the Paramount theater are so well put together, the acting is top-notch, the sets are beautiful, and the talent/music/staff is competitive with Broadway in Chicago. They put out an amazing deal so you can buy two tickets for the cost of one for four shows. What a great deal! The theater itself is lovely and the location is wonderful, with many good restaurants nearby it is easy to make a full evening out of attending a show!

Don’t hesitate: We visited the park on one of its busiest days of the year, and the crowds definitely made their presence known—especially in the parking line/lot. If you haven’t prepaid for parking, expect a long wait. Pro tip: purchase your tickets and parking online ahead of time and have them ready on your phone—it’ll save you a ton of time and hassle. For frequent visitors, a membership is well worth it. The member lines were noticeably shorter, and the family membership option is a great perk—you can share it with friends and relatives, making group visits smoother and more affordable. If you have a membership card each person that comes in, you can bring one person with them for free. Once inside, the park is a breath of fresh air. It’s beautifully designed, easy to navigate, and offers a serene escape into nature. Every corner feels thoughtfully maintained and visually stunning. If you’re craving a peaceful outdoor experience, this park is a must-visit.

I've been a member AMD have going here for yrs. I love all the events that they provide throughout the yr. I enjoy walking though the Arboretum it's so peaceful and enjoy finding the Artwork from different artists through out the years. Everyone who works there are so friendly and helpful. I recommend going if you enjoy nature. They have a cute area for kids and a hedge maze. I enjoy bringing family and friends from it of town here when they come to visit.

Absolutely amazing experience! The little museum section before going up was a great surprise — very well done and full of interesting facts. The elevator ride up was fast and smooth, and then… the grand finale! Standing on the glass ledge and taking a photo “in the air” was just incredible. WoW! A must-do experience if you’re visiting the city.

I truly loved it the walk it was just minutes from the Pendry Hotel where I was staying. The entrance was simple no hassle and no lines whatsoever. Even with the crowd getting close the Bean was simple smooth and had a chill experience. Not for nothing though it was HOTT in the area I blame the bean lol. But the field is also right next to this location and it is another amazing site to just walk by and look I would love to attend a concert there!!!

Definitely a very popular place to visit while in Chicago! Beautiful park with mature trees, areas to walk, see, and explore. The Bean is beautiful and very popular, lots of tourists. You can observe the different architecture of the buildings from different places in the park. I had a great experience overall☺️

The Art Institute of Chicago is an absolute must-visit and one of the best museums in the U.S. We used the CityPASS, which gave us express entry — no long lines, a big plus! The museum is huge and beautifully curated, featuring world-famous masterpieces by Monet, Van Gogh, and many other renowned artists. The layout makes it easy to navigate, and there are plenty of clean restrooms throughout. I appreciated the bag check area where you can safely leave larger items, though small bags and water bottles are allowed inside. The souvenir shop is also impressive — large and filled with unique art-inspired items. Whether you’re an art lover or a casual visitor, this museum is a Chicago highlight and a must-see attraction downtown. Spent around three hours there but could spend the whole day if we don't have other plans.

We had a fantastic time at Navy Pier with the kids! The highlights were definitely the thrilling SeaDog ride (with incredible views) and the fun rides at Pier park like the Wave Swinger. The Ferris wheel is a classic for a reason ..great for a relaxed view of everything. Food-wise, we were all happy with the burgers from Salt... the kids of course loved their Ben & Jerry's ice-cream after.. FlyOver Chicago was another fun indoor activity that the kids enjoyed. All in all, a perfect family day full of great sights and fun, a must go..if you're visiting Chicago.

I love it here! Remy, who works at the caeser reward center is my absolute favorite. Always so very helpful. The rooms are clean, and they are very accommodating. The slots are hot!!!! Highly recommend!!

Nice sportsbook with movie theater type seating. Big tvs. Other than the cigarette smoke, it's a great place to watch and bet sports

If you’re planning a trip to Indiana Dunes, don’t skip the area around the Pavilion—it ended up being one of my favorite parts of the park. The Pavilion itself is this beautifully restored historic building that sits right on the beach. It kind of gives off a nostalgic, almost vintage boardwalk vibe, but with updated features that make it perfect for a beach day break. You’ve got options—grab a bite to eat downstairs, cool off with some ice cream, or head up to the rooftop bar (my favorite part) and take in the views of Lake Michigan. If you catch it near sunset, it’s chef’s kiss. We ordered food from the café downstairs—think burgers, salads, simple grill stuff. I had the Italian beef and it was great and had plenty of meat. It’s not five-star dining or anything, but it hits the spot after hiking dunes or laying in the sun all day. I will say it was a little pricey for what it was, and service was a bit slow, but to be fair it was a packed weekend afternoon. The staff was doing their best, and everyone was friendly. The rooftop though? Worth it. Great breeze, amazing views, and it just feels relaxing up there. It’s the kind of place where you can sip a drink and lose track of time watching the waves. One thing to note: it does cost $12 if from out of state and $7 if you're from Indiana per vehicle to enter the State Park, which gets you access to the beach, trails, and of course the Pavilion area. Totally worth it in my opinion, especially if you make a full day of it. The beach right outside the Pavilion is wide and beautiful, with plenty of space (though it can get crowded in peak summer). It’s perfect for families, couples, or even a solo recharge day. And if you're up for a little adventure, the dune trails nearby are gorgeous and offer some killer views of the lake. My tips: – Try to go on a weekday if you can, it’s less crowded. – Bring sunscreen and flip flops – Definitely plan to catch the sunset. – And if you’re into photography, this place is a dream around golden hour. The Indiana Dunes Pavilion is one of those spots that makes you want to slow down and just enjoy where you are. It’s not perfect but it doesn’t need to be. The views, the breeze, the beach, it all adds up to a really special experience. Would I go back? Absolutely. And next time, I’m saving room for that ice cream.

Clean, fun place! Every delicious candyr you can imagine. Staff were helpful, kind & generous with samples. No stinginess here!! Made us glad to purchase more than we’d planned! 😀🎉 Fun stop, worth the little detour. Our favorite: Albanese Dark chocolate gran marnier pecans!!

Very nice smaller park. It has a beautiful lake setting. The park wasn't very busy while we visited, the lines moved fairly quickly considering the rollercoasters only ran or had one train. Our favorites were steel hawg and lost coaster of superstition mountain ( which is very interesting and unique). Parking was free , so that's a plus. We had double cheeseburgers and fries and they were better than most amusement parks we've been to. Overall great park if you're in the area or live near. Also the walk through Dr Frankenstein thing was very enjoyable, though I feel it should be included with admission, I personally didn't mind paying the extra $3.50 to do it .

My wife and I were in the area for an unrelated event and thought we would come check the park out since we’ve only heard great things. It did not disappoint!! We accidentally went on trail 3 and stuck with it. We had an amazing day and look forward to coming back again!! This is a beautiful area!

A great place to stop for a visit! We were on a mini vacation in Indianapolis and stopped here on our way home. The playground alone made it worth it for our daughter. We also enjoyed wandering the village and chatting with all of the villagers and workers. The treetop play area was also a lot of fun. Stopping by in the spring also ensures you will see tons of baby animals. We even got to pet a few of the larger ones.

It’s an amazing experience from start to finish. Be sure and take the golf cart tour. Jason was personable and made the tour awesome! The museum is amazing! So many important cars and the building itself is a work of art. The only negative is they need more refreshments due to the amount of time a visitor may spend there. Be sure and talk to the different staff around the museum, they make the visit more informative and some of them have great stories. I highly recommend visiting here whether you e ever watched a race or not.

From the second you see the gigantic dinosaur cracking the building open from the car, it is an amazing experience. Every floor is absolutely packed with amazing exhibits. Things for children and parents, nostalgia at its best. On top of the amazing and beautiful exhibits, they have so many things for little children to do. The playscape is a life saver for kids who need to get some energy out. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They are so open to nursing mothers and mothers with small babies in general when it comes to feeding, relaxing, changing. 100/10 recommend. I'd go even if I didn't have kids with me.

What’s not to love about the Indianapolis Zoo? Having a membership for two years now, my family has fully experienced all the finest parts of the zoo over and over again. The membership pays for itself after only two visits a year, and we’ve gone at least 10-12 times each year. From ZooBoo to Christmas at the Zoo are the iconic ones, but the times during the weekdays when there are no field trips or herds of children are the best for my part-time home wife. My daughter has fed giraffes, pet kangaroos, had her face painted and ate Dippin’ Dots on her birthday, rode the train, watched dolphins splash her, gave high-fives at the plexiglass at the orangutangs, smelled flowers, asked why Flamingos are pink, and almost has a visual map in her head of the entire park. Have I mentioned she just turned three years old? My son is 9 months old, and he’s had a handful of times already at the zoo, and the amount of experiences the zoo has provided has sustained into our home with imagination zookeeping, making animal noises, reading out of picturebooks her favorite zoo animals, and instead of “Old MacDonald had a farm” it is now “Old MacDonald had a zoo!”. As a former educator for 15 years, I have witnessed students who have had experiences outside of the home greatly enrich their education and their overall social capital. Having my daughter exposed to so much of the world in the middle of the heartland of Indiana, through the Indianapolis Zoo, I know that she will find her passions in helping conserve and create a better world for the next generations with the education she’s learning here. I am inspired to continue inviting her into these spaces, and I look forward to seeing the wanderlust my son will have for these escapades to the jungle and prairie and everywhere in the park. If I could give 10 Google reviews with 5-stars, I would give so much emphasis on how essential it is to get a membership, show up and provide the story of the Indianapolis Zoo to embed into your children, and watch them become fuller with each visit. And you, as the parent of course, can have unlimited soft drinks while you mosey! THANK YOU, Indy Zoo! You have members for life!

This is undeniably a wonderful place to unwind and try your luck. I greatly enjoyed playing the slots and tables, adding an exciting touch to my visit. The establishment exudes a sense of cleanliness that is commendable and adds up to the overall excellent experience. I had an absolutely good time and would confidently recommend it to anyone looking for mild, enjoyable entertainment. It's certainly a place you would love to spend some pleasurable moments.

I surprised my mom and bff with a day here at the winery and let me tell you, we all had a wonderful time! I'm not much of a wine drinker but they definitely are and I still enjoyed the vibes, the atmosphere and the sweet staff. Highly recommend the winery tour because we learned so many things we didn't know, especially that the Oliver's are a wonderful family who have touched the lives of many. Kathy was our tour guide and she was knowledgeable and very sweet. The day was beautiful. I packed us a picnic that we were able to enjoy once the tour was over. Or you can purchase food and snacks at the shop. We left with some wines that they've never tried before so it definitely broadened their horizons. We can't wait to come back!

Hidden racing gem of the Midwest! I just went to the racetrack. The venue is well kept, clean and comfortable. The staff is knowledgeable and super friendly. Everything is easy to get to. Race card was good. Burglar was amazing! If you are looking for a fun, casual and comfortable day at the races, this is the track for you.

I frequent a lot of State Parks and somehow have never gone to Brown County State Park. I love the quaint town of Nashville. That is where I have always spent my trips down to Brown County. The park is massive the trails are abundant. The camping looks decent and intend to give this a shot too! We took our new dog out on trail 9 and 7. We had a blast! A great place to bike the trails!

What a great place! We visited with the intention of stretching our legs for a moment on the drive home from vacation. That brief moment turned into over three hours of finding waterfalls, swimming in the creek, and exploring the trails. We did a loop and were able to see Clifty, Little Clifty, and Tunnel falls. Down in the bottom of the canyon we were able to wade in the creek to escape the 90+ temps. What a great experience plenty left for us to explore on our next visit! Also, great picnic area and clean restrooms!!

First time here, went on a Sunday when they opened at 1pm...little line waiting to get in, not bad. A must see!! Wonderful biblical attraction with gardens, small zoo, 4D theatre, planetarium (10-15$ per person depending on 1 or 2 shows), zip lining (not included in price), aerial obstacle course (not included in price). Have a military discount and if u don't buy the Ark and Creation tickets together, make sure you bring your stubs to the other one, well at least when we went to Creation museum we would have got money off as a "bundle" for having already gone to the Ark. Everyone is super friendly! Lots of bathrooms and water fountains which again like the Ark I really appreciate! Coffee shop, ice cream, fudge, cookies, food and snacks, gift shops. Lots of reading as you walk through the museum but so amazing to learn as you walk through the Bible, literally!! The pictures below are just a few of the many things you will see and read! Definitely check this place out!!
