Wow! The newly renovated floorplan is incredible. The detail and displays are easy to read and purposeful to the history of the track. I felt like I connected to the history of the track through the museum. The movie displays stimulating and felt like I was there. The new STEM/kids area is really for all ages and does an exceptional job bringing the racing experience to your finger tips. Plan extra time for thus area. And the top floor is a tribute to the best of the best showing off race suits and trophies. This truly is a key part of American history as well as the commitment to excellence.

WOW. As a lifelong motorsports fan, I've always enjoyed visiting IMS, though it had been years since I visited the museum. After the recent renovation, this is easily the BEST museum for racing fans everywhere. The exhibits are fantastic, it's spotless and well-laid out, and had a large section for interactive activities (including a bank of simulators)! Best of all though - there was a TON for our young kids to do! A small play area for toddlers, interactive games, and an entire room dedicated to STEAM activities. We got a discount for admission from our local library, but I would have easily paid full price. The IMS staff were so incredibly nice, and were very helpful and chill, even with our crazy 18-month-old running around yelling "CAR!" constantly. Well done, IMS! We will be back!

Loved it! It's an immersive experience that's well laid out in a modern and very clean facility. For a true racing fan, this is a must-see, especially as it contains so much history and includes not only IndyCar and the Indy 500, but also a NASCAR feature that depicts the history of the Brickyard 400. It is my understanding that the NASCAR display is not a permanent fixture in the museum. However, in my opinion it should be because it features IMS in a broader sense... especially since so many visitors only know it for the Indy 500.

My husband loved touring the museum and seeing all the cars they have on display. I’m not much of a race fan or car enthusiast but found the history very interesting. We spent about an hour touring all three levels. They were testing on the track while we were there, so no track tours that day, but we plan to come back and actually tour the track via golf cart.

This was one of the best museum experiences of my life with the interactive race car stations and the interactive tire removal and seeing all the assembly disassembly visuals in all of the cars and it’s an absolutely pristine condition. The work that they did inside the place is the best museum quality I’ve ever seen bathrooms were absolutely showpieces not to mention they were clean as all get out and the staff inside the museum either from the museum foundation or the Roger Penske team were just magnificent. You have to go and see this

This place was full of racing history. I loved the short video presentation. Was an emotional experience for me. Took the podium tour and got our picture taken on the victory podium. They have all sorts of race cars and race memoriblia to see. Would recommend this place to any race fan.

This was one of the coolest displays of race cars Ive ever seen. There is so much to look at. They even have interactive displays to change tires and fuel for a simulated pit stop. Also simulated driving is very real feeling. Lots of amazing race cars over the years are in here. Many trophies rings racing suits and helmets. This is a multi level building with so much racing history. If you have a love for Indy car racing this is a must see.

Mansion is spectacular. Staff informative. So much history. The fireplaces and flooring is gorgeous. Chandeliers and all the woodwork shows the awesome craftsmanship that has slowly disappeared throughout time. If in Kokomo definitely make that a stop.

A MUST stop in Kokomo! We enjoyed the house tour - self guided. $10 adults, $5 students. House is accessible by a ramp go the first floor. No access to floors 2 and 3 for wheelchair users BUT there is a lovely video showing the upstairs. The volunteers were very friendly and knowledgeable.

Amazing mansion and the people were so nice and knowledgable. The Tuskegee mini exhibit was great. I would love to see more added to it.

Very haunted a good way! It was fun for the 25min that your there in historic kokomo. You can visit other spots like small stores

This was an incredible architectural treasure. The local history exhibits in the house were really well done. The local history and the restored house made a wonderful walkthrough and I would say this is a must visit location.

It is a wonderfully historic location. The people are knowledgeable and friendly. The house is beautiful and has many historical displays

Super friendly attendant. She gave us a ton of info about the history of this house. Beautiful woodwork and stained glass throughout the house. Lots of local history. Could easily spend 2 hours seeing everything if you take the time .

An absolute amazing collection of art from all genres, and all areas of the World. Tons of interactive displays, and the LUME Experience was wonderful. My daughter, and I truly enjoyed the museum. The staff was fantastic, and the building was extremely clean. A great place to take family, friends, clients, dates, etc… I’m so glad we decided to make the trip.

Beautiful Museum set on Lovely Grounds featuring many Walking paths thru a Garden like setting. The Museum has 4 Floors that exhibit various cultural Art works. The 4th floor is currently featuring an immersive experiential exhibit on Australia's indigenous peoples, the Aboriginies. Definitely a must see.

I love this place. It's historic and beautifully decorated. Easily accessed from I-65 it's a wonderful experience to walk through the gardens and grounds. The museum is top notch too but I'm more of an outdoor person so the Newfields gardens and grounds really appeals to me.

I didn't know what to expect and just really loved the museum. I can tell that they've made an admirable effort to include underrepresented artists. I also loved all of the pairings of different art pieces so that I could really think about the pieces and notice new things. This museum is also perfect for children! What an amazing job they've done at helping students cultivate an interest and connect with art. I also had lunch and visited the gift shop and would recommend both.

THE LUME IS COOOL! Digital projections that bring art themes to life! If your somone who wants to experience the colours and see art in a new interpretation this is fascinating! For those with the Access Pass it’s 5.00 per two people. VERY romantic too ! We enjoyed it!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Harvest Nights at Newfields Harvest Nights at Newfields is an amazing visual experience that perfectly blends art, light, and atmosphere. The grounds are filled with stunning photo ops, delicious snacks, and tasty beverages — ideal for both families and date nights. The mix of glowing visuals and fun, slightly eerie sounds creates a magical fall vibe that’s both exciting and cozy. Arrive just before dark to catch the full transformation as the lights come alive. Absolutely worth a visit — 5 out of 5!

I went to the garden and felt i got transported to a totally different place, i arrived very late and should have planned it properly beforehand, there is lots to see in the garden, very well maintained and deserves full appreciation to the team who dedicated lots of their efforts. Serene and beautiful, every step feels lighter and you cant stop gazing every where trying to soak it all in. Perfect place for weddings or intimate events or photo shoots.

What a great experience, went during the week, less crowded. It was our first time at the zoo. It was gorgeous. I loved all the places that you can and just sit and observe the animals. The park was so clean. I can't say enough great things about the staff, they were so kind and offered up all the events coming up at the zoo. You must take the time to visit the chimpanzees and the orangutans. They so much room to move around, you always have to be on the lookout. Love Indianapolis zoo can't wait to go back.

We took the kids to the Indianapolis Zoo during a weekend trip, and it was a great time all around. The place is huge — you could easily spend half a day wandering around without realizing it. We saw all the big hitters: elephants, giraffes, kangaroos, and a bunch of others that I’m pretty sure my kids renamed halfway through (“Look, it’s a long-necked horse!”). We splurged on feeding the giraffes and flamingos, and it was totally worth it — the kids were thrilled, and we got some great photos out of it. We also took them on the little rollercoaster, which they absolutely loved (and which gave us a much-needed break from walking). The dolphin show was definitely the highlight — entertaining, well done, and a nice break from all the walking. The zoo was packed since the weather was perfect and they were handing out candy to kids dressed up for Halloween, so it had a fun, festive vibe (and a sugar-fueled chaos energy). We grabbed some food from one of the stalls expecting the usual overpriced “theme park” meal, but honestly? It wasn’t bad at all. The fries, chicken tenders, and nachos actually hit the spot — maybe we were just starving, but still, solid effort. All in all, 4 stars — great experience, awesome for families, and bonus points for not charging $20 for fries. Just be ready for crowds if you go on a nice day!

I've been to a handful of zoos in my life. The Indianapolis Zoo is my favorite that I've been to. The layout made for a wonderful experience as we moved from one exhibit to another. I also think the gardens and foliage planted along all the exhibits really added to it. We went on a Wednesday in the middle of August. Crowds were light which made for an easy viewing of all exhibits. All the animals were active. Watched the cheetahs chase each other around. Then we were lucky to see them get feed raw meat by the zoo keepers. The dolphin show was fun. The tropical bird and butterfly enclosures were awesome to walk through. I'd highly recommend making this zoo a destination if you visit Indianapolis.

Go now, in October, it is decorated beautifully. I love going. Landscaped and waling layout gives you curvy trails of shade and quiet areas to enjoy seeing the animals. The plants are amazing, such a variety. The front had the cutest Halloween/October themes. If you are a Purdue employee, check out the deep discount, buy it now and use it any day. Everything is just beautiful.

✨ As a wedding photographer, I absolutely love working at the Indianapolis Zoo! Not only are the grounds stunning—with so many unique backdrops that make wedding photos truly magical—but the staff is also incredibly kind and helpful to work with. From start to finish, they were organized, welcoming, and made the day run so smoothly—not just for the couple, but for us vendors, too! There’s something so special about celebrating a love story surrounded by nature, and the zoo offers that in the most beautiful way. It’s a one-of-a-kind venue, and I always look forward to capturing weddings here! Highly recommend for couples looking for a venue that’s both elegant and fun!

Hands down, middle of the week mornings are the best time to go. The Zoo has made so many improvements, and is looking amazing. With that comes the constant construction. However, its is 100% worth the minor inconvenience. If this is your first time considering the Zoo, DO IT ! Definitely top of the list things to do with the kiddos. The outdoor event center is absolutely stunning, and provides an abundance of shade for relaxing under.

I had an amazing time at the Indianapolis Zoo! We booked our tickets online, and it only cost $16 per person totally worth every penny. It’s such a fun and exciting place to visit, especially if you’re taking kids. The entire experience was fantastic and I even filmed an awesome YouTube video here — definitely a memorable day! The dolphin show was absolutely incredible — it’s a must-see! Everything was clean, well-organized, and the staff were super friendly. Just a small tip for visitors: wear comfortable sports shoes because there’s a lot of walking, and dress for the weather, since most of the zoo is outdoors. Highly recommend the Indianapolis Zoo for families, couples, or anyone looking for a fun and educational day out!

The stadium was great. The blast of air conditioning was a welcome relief from the heat outside. There was some technological issues verifying our tickets that delayed our entry into the building and thereby caused us to miss much of the pregame. Still not sure what happened but eventually all nine of us entered. We were in the back of the mid-level and our view was unobstructed. The toilets were sufficient. The food was as expected.

FFA national convention is hosted there and Evans high school which I teach at, and I am the FFA advisor. This year was our first time going to the national conference. And we really enjoyed ourselves. The stadium is great. This was my first time visiting Indiana and its beautiful. I love the way their landscaping with beautiful flowers and crops. Such as cabbages, different types of lettuce, Swiss Chard. It's just beautiful lavender everywhere.

We went to see the BOA Nat.Championships Finals. It was so cool! The stadium is clean, has nice restrooms, Lucas Oil grill serves pretty good burgers (they also have veggie burgers). Clear bag policy was not enforced. Temperature was fine until the AC started blowing cold air from above after 9 pm. Parking in close proximity for $20 (cash or card).

There are a ton of entrances you can’t actually get through. Following the crowd works fine, and security moves quickly once you figure out where to go in. Beers run about $17 for the big cans, and you’re limited to two per person. They’ll ask you to leave a tip—minimum 15% (hard pass)—and claim it goes to some charity.

Not a whole lot to say about it. It's a stadium. The seats in the club section are very roomy. The standard seats are pretty small. Crowds are usually not too wild. The concessions are reasonably priced for sporting events versus other stadiums. The concessions do get crowded during large events and there is usually a pretty long line. There seems to be plenty of parking.

My first NFL game wasn't my team but it was an awesome experience. Definitely we'll go again. Plenty of outside activities going on and tastings and music everywhere it was. It was a live wire of a Time ❤️❤️❤️💯

I recently attended the Bands of America Grand Nationals Championship at Lucas Oil Stadium, a two-day event that was an amazing experience. The stadium is impressively large, with plenty of seating to accommodate the crowds, making it comfortable to enjoy hours of incredible performances. On the first morning, we grabbed coffee at the stadium. I ordered a mocha, and it was pretty good—just what I needed to start the day. Later that evening, we tried the chicken tenders and fries. They were tasty, though I wish there had been a spicier sauce option. They did have sriracha, but it wasn’t quite spicy enough for me. On the second day, we stopped by Maui Wowi and tried the piña colada and lemonade smoothies. They were refreshing, flavorful, and perfect after spending so much time in the stadium. Overall, Lucas Oil Stadium provided a great atmosphere for the championship. With food options, plenty of seating, and an unforgettable lineup of bands, it was a fantastic place to experience such a memorable event. I’d happily return for future performances and events.

Very good and large museum for all ages of children. It's interactive and knowledge sharing for children. It's great place to take your children here. You must have enough time in hand to see indoor as well as out door facilities. Nicely made museum.

This was probably the highlight of our trip! We spent 6 hours here and recommend planning for a full day here. We bought tickets in advance and took a look at all the exhibits ahead of time so we weren't overwhelmed on where to start. This museum is great for families with kids of all ages. It is super stroller friendly with the ramp to get from one floor to another. You were never more than a tiny walk to a bathroom, great diaper changing areas, water bottle refills, and benches. The Playscapes area was great for our toddler to run around and burn off some energy. All three of our kids loved the outdoor sports exhibit! They played hockey, baseball, football, basketball, took a lap around the mini speedway, and climbed through the tree! This place has it all. The cafeteria was excellent for lunch and has a highchair. Lots of great learning and core memories made here! Cannot recommend enough!

Great immersive museum for children. There’s areas for babies and under 5 and then areas meant for kids 8-9+ and plenty for adults to see as well. Unfortunately the weather was a bit cold so we missed the outside sports area, but it looked very fun. The blown glass sculpture and water clock were were impressive, as were the large dinosaurs inside and outside. Free parking was great, but I wish adult admissions weren’t so expensive or perhaps a discount for second parent to offset the price. It was around $90 for our family of 3. If we lived closer we’d definitely become members.

The 3 little ones and some family really had an amazing time at the Museum. They were able to create(color) their own dinosaur and watch it come to LIFE! They tried the outdoor sports center and went up the huge treehouse! Enjoyed playing music and seeing all of the different exhibits. They had a great time and absolutely LOVED it!

The best Children's Museum I've ever been to. They have everything and its hours of fun for every age. We have a membership so we can dig deep in different areas and never feel like we have to do the whole Museum in a day! Every staff member I have ever seen has a smile on their face and is so helpful and caring. When my 3 year old was throwing a tantrum about leaving, several staff members asked if she was ok and if there was anything they could do to help.

Super cool experience and highly recommend! Going on Thursdays at 4 pm will get you a big discount on tickets. Is a great place for children to be children and explore a safe space where everything is touchable.

My family has always wanted to try this museum but the timing never worked out until yesterday! We went on a summer weekday when some Indiana schools were already in session. We went with 4 adults and three kids ages 4, 9 & 11. We bought tickets in advance and parked in the free covered lot. Entry was a breeze and my kids immediately found activities to interest them. We ate at the museum and the food was good (better than many other museums) and very good choices. Prices seemed fine. We were busy from 11-3 and then had to leave but missed two floors! I think my 11yo might be aging out but anyone into sports or solving mysteries would still love it! I would go back! The special Peru exhibit was our favorite, followed by the sports area and the Rube Goldberg Machine.

The Hot Air Balloon Festival at Conner Prairie was a magical experience. Colourful balloons filled the sky at sunrise, creating a breathtaking view. The atmosphere was festive with music, food, and family-friendly activities. A perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, it’s definitely worth attending.

Headless Horseman Absolutely loved this event! My family and I had an amazing time! We didn’t get to do everything they had to offer, there was so much! We absolutely loved the Marinette show, the magic show and the fire throwers. Of course the headless horseman wagon ride stole the show! That was so much fun! The food was some of the best! I wished I had filmed the marionette and magic show, it was also like a comedy show in addition to each one. We are looking forward to coming again next year!!!! 100% worth the cost of tickets! Thank you to everyone who made this happen! Everyone did an amazing job! The food vendors were awesome too!

Good experience, bring cards - they don’t always accept cash. The kids had a great time and there was plenty to do. The guides who talked about fur trading, weaving, etc. were all really fun and knowledgeable. We were there from 11-3 and still hadn’t gone through every area since the kids (ages 4-10) spent a lot of time playing on the playground and at the treehouse outpost. They were filthy, exhausted, and happy. Fell asleep 5 minutes after we left. One major concern was that we found out after arriving that they had recently implemented “cashless weekends”. Since I specifically brought cash for the day, that turned out to be a big problem. The cafe is the only place to eat and wouldn’t take my money. Couldn’t buy balloon ride tickets. If I hadn’t had Applepay, I would have had to leave the entire property and drive elsewhere in Fishers for lunch, which would not have been so frustrating if it had been made clear in advance. I can’t find any mention anywhere of them being cashless on their website. That should definitely be made clear to guests planning a visit. Otherwise, great experience.

Participated in the event of Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation’s largest, most impactful fundraising event Take Steps to raise funds to accelerate research, advance treatments, and provide programs and support to improve the quality of life for those living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Event was on June 14th, 2025 at Conner Prairie, Fishers, Indiana. Although a rainy day but remarkable people attended with rain suites and umbrellas. Very well organized, opened with introductions, speeches and finally a walk. My daughter is a member of this foundation, that make me a proud father.

Me and my boyfriend had a good time at the headless horseman festival! The mozzarella sticks with marinara and witches brew (apple cider) slushy was really good not to mention their baked soft Halloween cookies!! Never had a cookie that melts in my mouth like butter! It was a very cute place to hang out see some interesting shows and eat good food! The regular corn maze was fun! The scary one had just one area of clowns that its not really much to it or scary at all but a good laugh not worth the wait though if there is a line no pop out scares besides one time I think they are low staffed but overall pretty fun to walk through and just vibe. The hay ride cost more it’s not included in the 27 dollar general admission it’s an extra 10 dollars and needs to be reserved which sucked for us because we where looking forward to that experience.

Conner Prairie is an absolute gem for Indy residents! I've started going more often for different programs and events (The Hot Air Balloon Festival is NOT to be missed!) and regret not taking advantage of my proximity to this local Smithsonian-affiliate sooner. Taking my nephews to a birding event there this weekend and we are all so excited!

Great place to learn about local history and enjoy a relaxing day. Highly recommended for families, history lovers, and anyone curious about the past!

I love seeing shows at Ruoff! Whether you’re in the pit, seats, or the lawn, you’ll have a great view and a great time. The pit is a bit small, so it is easier to get in and out if you need to. I like that the entrance to the lawn is at the front, as opposed to some with lawn entrances from the back. Food and drinks are way overpriced, but that’s concert venues nowadays. The staff and atmosphere are 10/10. Great concert venue.

Came here to see Pierce The Veil. The venue staff is absolutely amazing compared to some venues I’ve been to, they’re so happy to help and have all the info you will need. We were driving around the parking lots 2-4 am until some workers came in, advised us what time lining up would be allowed, and due to their info we were able to get a great spot in line and into the venue quickly. On top of that, inside the venue they kept us dry during the storm, figured out how to keep the show going, and kept us all in line and orderly. I wish they had photographers by security so I could find a picture of my bestie and I on the barricade, but that has nothing to do with a bad rating. This is a great venue and I would travel to it again to see more shows!

This venue was perfect for our concert. There were no bad seats and I love that it was like a little town inside, with so many options for food, merch, and even free water to refill your bottles.

Rain delay but we had VIP and got to wait in the bar area. Saw Pierce The Veil and the band was great! Due to the rain I'm glad we had seats under the pavilion. All the staff were courteous, friendly and helpful. Great arena and would definitely go again.

Enjoy my experience every time I visit Runoff Music Center (or as we all still call it Deer Creek!). This time was no exception. Had a wonderful time seeing some of my kids' favorite bands. Will be back for another show soon. 😉

I went for Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson. This is a good venue. There is plenty of space for merch and a lot of food and drink options. Everything is overpriced, but less so than some other midwestern venues. They have a mix of seating and open lawn and I did find it irritating that they needed to see my ticket every time I came back to my seat. I think wristbands would have been easier.

This is great outdoor space! They have plentu of parking options, the in and out is super organized. Lots of ticket checkers with a speedy process. The facility was clean the staff was nice. The food and the alcohol was pricey, but the loaded nachos are worth it. Loved it!

Buck Creek is a nice place for wine tasting, sipping, imbibing, drinking and similar pastimes. Quality wines in a cornucopia of varieties. But, it doesn't come cheap, to be sure. $2.00 for a taste or $10.00 for 6 tastes (didn't tastes used to be free?) $10.00 for a wine slushie In order words, bring your thirst for some delicious wine but don't forget to bring your wallet, as well Pro Tip There are indoor and outdoor areas to partake of the fruit of the vine. If it is not too hot, I suggest outside seating as it can get pretty noisy and busy (with customers) inside. Don't forget to drop by the vineyard to see a little grape action close, as well!

A local gem, for sure. Great wines and atmosphere. You can bring your own snacks and eat them on the patio. Nice pours!

I've written a review for Buck Creek Winery many years ago, so here's an updated review. Jeff (owner) is simply AH-MAZING!! I had an issue with one of the wines I bought (sadly from a store instead of the winery), so I emailed the winery and got a reply the next day. Although I had bought them from a store, I was given an apology and offered a replacement. I took the opened bottle to the winery so they could try it themselves. Jeff tasted, grabbed another bottle they had and tried it comparing the two, then had me try the new bottle. Exactly what I was expecting. With no issues or hassle, I was offered different options on how I wanted to handle it and that was that. If you want a quaint place with a great atmosphere and friendly staff, I HIGHLY recommend visiting this place!! The wine is fantastic, plenty of options, a great deals as well! Thank you, Jeff, for being a stand-up guy! You didn't have to replace the bottles and could have sent me back to the store, but you didn't. You pride yourself on customer service and for that, I applaud you. Keep up the extraordinary work!

My friends and I had a great time at this winery last summer. 3 of us had the wine tasting, and they even had something non-alcoholic for our designated driver. The gentleman at the counter was very informative and friendly, and we ended up buying a couple of bottles, which all tasted great.

Great place to stop on our travels. Can't wait to enjoy our wine selections we brought home. Owners were very nice and helpful in making our selections.

Great tasting experience at Buck Creek Winery. I'm a Hoosier now living in Sonoma, California, and I work part time in the wine industry and I am a former wine writer for various Northern California and nation wine publications. Suffice to say, growing up in Indiana I despised the sweet wines we are known for making and I was a bit nervous about what I'd expect - especially given that the label looks like something you'd find at a hunting cabin wall versus a modern day winery. But, we aren't in California anymore Dorothy. I came into this tasting with an open mind and a goal to only taste wines using Indiana grown grapes (no fruit wine or wine using imported grapes from CA, OR, WA, etc). Our tasting associate was down to earth, informative and friendly. He answered all my geeky questions. I was very pleased with his knowledge about the wines and winemakng process, as past experiences with Indiana wine tastings have often been less than informative. I felt very overwhelmed looking at the two page wine list - 37 wines! I selected six (it's $10 for six tastings) and I chose estate and Indiana grown wines and one cider: -William Loyd Reserve (red blend) -Seyval Blanc (white semi-dry) -Forget Me Not (Traminette) -Grady's Hard Cider (heirloom apples from a few blocks away) -Pink Ribbon Rose -Autumn Blush (Catawba) I was tasted the William Lloyd first, which was very confusing, as I would generally taste a guest on a dry white wine first, but, whatever. It was the only wine I chose on the official "dry" list, so that's what my first wine was. Overall, I enjoyed the William Loyd, Forget Me Not and the Hard Cider. Those are the three I left with. The Seyval Blanc was really interesting (acidic with a strange bite) and I look forward to trying more of those at other wineries. The Pink Ribbon Rose was bearable and the Autumn Blush smelled like it was corked upon opening and pouring, but, I was told that was "just how it always smelled." I could not get past the scent of that wine when I tasted it. The rose-orange tinted wine is their most popular wine, which I cannot comprehend anyone liking. The wines I took home are dry. The red reminded me of a slightly tannic, but comforting and warm full-bodied merlot or syrah-based red blend I'd find back home. A good easy drinking, week night red. The Traminette is Indiana's state grape and this was my first taste of it since I left the state. I really enjoyed it. Its parent grape is Gewürz and it's got delicate floral and fruity notes, but nothing over the top. Really nice wine. The cider was semi-dry and just plain tasty. I noticed glasses of wine were being served in plastic cups, so I opted out of that. They were also selling wine slushies to go in big stryofoam containers, which was hilarious and very Hoosier. Overall, I was pleased to find some wines I enjoyed and look forward to returning to the future to try Buck Creek's other wines. Cheers.

It is beautiful place to visit. While we were tasting the delicious variety of wines they had the wine steward gave information on the wines. We purchased cheese with crackers & sat outside enjoying a nice summer breeze with a glass. Then we strolled by vineyards.

Every large place with a good variety of items and vendors that aren't over priced. Nice staff. Their discount policy is that you have to pay with cash, check, or gift card for a discount which is a bit odd but otherwise easy transactions. The cashier said, "You can buy discount items without cash but you won't get the discount." Which just feels like a silly statement. Overall a good stop though.

Huge, huge, huge!! This place has a ton of stuff. It took us a long while to get through here. And my wife and I agree we probably didn't get to all of it. If you're into antiques check it out. My personal opinion is that some of the coins and bills are a little expensive. Even a novice collector like me figured that out real quick. But absolutely check it out!

This mall is impressively large, offering a variety of items with a lot of vendor overlap. Its size can be a bit overwhelming, making it challenging to navigate efficiently to see everything. Even after two hours, we couldn't cover it all. If you spot something you like, it's best to purchase it immediately, as you might not remember its location later. Looking for a good place to pass some time, especially on a rainy and/or cold day, this is it!

This is the largest and most well laid antique mall I've ever been to inside. Wide rows and easy to walk-in booths make looking for treasures a breeze. As an avid diecast car collector and an 80s kid, I couldn't believe how many booths were full of great items. Words cannot truly describe it! The faculty is very well kept and maintained. Red-vest staff can help you open smaller cabinet style display boothes to look at items. They have restrooms, plenty of free parking, and a cafe (which I didn't believe was open during my visit). I highly recommend a stop in if your the in the area. You could easily spend an entire afternoon inside and still not see everything!

This place is HUGE, no exaggeration. If you’re wanting to browse the *entire store*, expect to be there for about at least 4 hours. It’s basically a day-trip. It’s easy to get lost but there are employees who walk around to assist as needed, as well as a telephone (one that I saw) to ask for help. Sounds crazy but this place is one-of-a-kind. Incredibly unique things and NOT crazy prices. If you’re in the area, take a look. There’s something for just about everyone.

Super big place! Lots and Lots of MCM, vintage and antique pieces all over the place. A must go place. This is not your typical thrift store. Id love to return in the near future!!

This place is huge and I had really high hopes for it but I was disappointed to see so many items that are from Temu. I don’t begrudge people reselling items from Temu, but do it at a flea market, not an antique store. Saw a cool looking lamp. Took a picture of it and did an image search and the lamp is current being sold at WalMart and Wayfair. I thought the prices were very high. But I did get a cute trivet for $2 which is about $6 less than what I’d normally see them priced. Huge huge store, but if you are actually looking for vintage or antique items, shop with a keen eye.

This review is strictly for the horse racing track, I have not been into the casino yet. I had a wonderful time watching harness racing at Hoosier Park. I've been to lots of Thoroughbred races before, but this was my first time seeing harness racing live. The track was setup nice. You can get right down on the rail at the finish line. The staff were all friendly.

Been here waiting for at least 30 mins to get this issue fixed. Found a staff walking around and said he couldn't help, got to wait for someone to come. Place is definitely understaffed. Edit: Woah! Ended leaving the machine as it was taking forever, but a fellow patron walked up to me at a different slot machine, completely different area, after like 2 hours later to let me know staff had taking fixed the issue and a voucher should be with the security. Super cool! Place may be understaffed but the customers are all super cool!. 3 stars now for amazing folks here

I went here around my birthday and had some fun. The casino itself is pretty nice. They have a good variety of different games to play. I like how close the location is to me so I don’t have to drive hours to get to it. I’d say my biggest complaint would be that there were a lot of cigarette butts left sitting on the slot. Some weren’t even In try’s. They were just left on the machine. Also in the same vein it smelt heavy of cigarettes in there. But other than that it’s a decent casino.

This has been a great place to visit. I enjoy just taking 20 bucks and trying my luck. Sometimes I get lucky and sometimes I don't. The atmosphere is great, it's clean, and have had some amazing conversations with people I just met. And enjoying the new food places they've recently added.. Definitely want to add this as a date night with your special someone..

The upgrades they have made have improved the overall atmosphere and experience. Food is good and prices are as expected at a place like this. The more open concept is good for mobilty accessibility. Not very accessible for visually impaired, though. The restrooms all have 2 accessible stalls. Due to the type of patrons at this location (a lot of elderly), more accessible parking spaces (especially van accessible parking) would give this 5 stars from me.

I was on vacation with family for a family reunion and we were taking here. It was a beautiful experience. Mom in a walker parking easy and elevator. I'm not personally one to visit casinos. However, the staff were nice with consideration for my mother. Confused on a lot of machines so I lost 35 within 10 minutes of play time. However I walked to find machines I'm more use to. I played 400 and cashed at for 440. So I broke even with a 5 in my pocket. My only complaint is no sit down restaurant, plus only sandwich type food. Nice place to watch football games also

Went to your Casino wasn't impressed. unisex Bathroom to the left of the men's.Was DIRTY,NO TOILET PAPER, PEOPLE URINING ON THE FLOOR, back in the day when going to Hollywood casino or Grand Victoria they were clean and I won a little and got Hotel Rooms.THINK I will GO Back! Just hate the drive

Pictures kinda describe my feelings when adventure was over!!! Ha. Be prepared to walk. Had mid age grandkids and a fine spring day to enjoy. Restrooms open at the time of our visit in April

This is a beautiful park with easy trails and breathtaking views. At some point, I wondered if I should start looking for hobbit homes! The history of the mounds is really cool and the main reason for visiting!

There’s more to this park then meets the eye. At the center of it, Is this 2000 year-old Adena Hopewell earthwork that is a must see. Looks like a stage or a solar observatory to not only track celestial objects but to dance amongst the stars and moon. The state park is beautiful and well taken care of. I highly recommend coming here and taking a walk and checking out the scenery.

Beautiful and interesting park. Plenty of hiking trails, a gift store, restrooms.

Beautiful state park! Great trails and easy accessibility to bring the kids.

We took Muffin here and I was shocked at how far she walked! It’s mostly shady, which is super nice. There are benches and places to sit along all the trails which is great if you’re out of shape like me 🤣

Nice trails at Mounds State Park. You want to see the fall colors on the trees, go for a hike! It is much prettier in the woods than driving around in a car. Trails 2&4 were listed as Rugged, but I didn't find them difficult at all. They do have a couple good size Boardwalks with some stairs. I enjoyed all the trails today and will be back.

The trail is well designed and maintained, I biked from Richmond to Muncie and back in late March 2024. For people who are biking long distances, we really need the water sources turned on, I realize that they are turned off due to possible freezing weather. Otherwise it was a good workout

A very nice place to kick around and have a little break while you were walking

I love the Cardinal Greenway! It’s a great local resource and I’m on it nearly every day. The Greenway staff do a great job keeping the Greenway clear, especially after stormy weather. It has a number of trailheads, many of which have portable toilets.

This old Muncie train depot was a really cool stop on my road trip. The gentleman inside was extremely helpful and friendly. He pointed out the low spot in the floor where the ticketmaster stood. Such beautiful architecture. Now a stop on the bike path.

Very nice rails-to-trails bike path. The pavement outside of Muncie is some of the smoothest I've ridden. Tree roots are starting to push up the pavement in a few places, but it's still very smooth overall.

Awesome place to take a break from riding. Get some water in you. Then peddle away

Very nice trail nice scenery. I recently rode 81 miles on my Catrike with e-assist. Had a blast!

Such a lovely mill in a cozy little town. The state museum does such a great job with education about the history and operation of the mill. Be sure to call ahead and ask about the times for grind demos where you can watch fresh corn being ground into cornmeal and grits. You can buy it right here on the spot! I love making jalapeño cornbread from the Metamora Grist Mill cornmeal.

Cute little town. The fudge was great and the gem mining was a cool experience

It’s an interesting site to visit. It’s a nice break from the shopping district. Take a walk over the bridge and learn more about local history. There is no charge to visit. The restroom was very clean.

Well I guess how much you will enjoy this place depends on your expectations. Are you looking for a nice day out? Does a small town with quant shops sound interesting? Then go. Leave your 5 star, high adrenaline expectations home and relax and enjoy

A step back in time. Very knowledgeable staff at the grist mill. Interesting shop with the cookie jars and ice cream. Most shops are only open on the weekends.

Quaint little village from the good Ole days. Worth the trip should be really nice during summer and fall .

Wo perfume place energy is high

We stayed here twice when we were on vacation in Ohio. Very nice Cabins and surroundings. They have pools, volleyball court, a basketball court, and other amenities. They also have a nice beach and great customer service

Great place for the family. Hiking, fishing ,swimming, boating, bird watching. This park has it all. The trails are nice,the campground is really nice. Lots to do for all. Fossil and rock collecting in the creek.

The park has a variety of options for your stay including RV, tent, lodge, cabin, equestrian, primitive and groups. There is a large Pavillion in the campground. They provide many activities such as nature walks, flora and fauna talks, and more. Acton Lake offers a beach, marina, and fishing. You can rent boats as well. There are 18 hiking trails of various lengths and difficulty.

Hueston Woods State Park is one of the most beautiful state parks in Ohio. The park is undergoing some renovations (as of May 2025) and I can’t wait to see the new and improved facilities and roads!!

Its an absolute great state park to visit great trails and nature center its one of the better ones we have visited so beautiful

Great park.. although it's not very well maintained. Pretty disappointing how much it's been let go

I really enjoyed it! Nice swimming area overlooking boats going by in the distance. Clean environment. I enjoyed it way more than the other lakes we've gone to in the past. Will definitely be going back

Beautiful campus, great presentations, cool student tour guides. My students truly enjoyed the campus visit. We had a great time. Thank you Miami.

No matter the season, this campus is a beautiful place to be! It has all the feelings of being in a Hallmark holiday movie.. the campus is absolutely gorgeous..The Fall foliage, to the flowers that are planted along campus during the spring and Summer.. or the gorgeous art and architecture that is around with the beautiful winter snow.. Mami university.. Oxford, Ohio.. is a beautiful place to visit, attend school, explore, live..

Met with Farmer Business School Professor Emeritus and 4th year student to get a tour and info. Beautiful campus, buildings, overall feel of the school is 5*.

Such a beautiful campus! Just to see some of these hand built stone bridges is amazing

We were there for the Business School graduation today. They know how to get all the graduates in fast! I couldn't believe how many graduates didn't return to their seats and left as soon as getting their diplomas.

We toured Miami today and it's a beautiful campus. It has such cool history and has a lot of neat quirks. Our tour guide, Sia, was an absolute delight, giving us history but also a lot of great personal stories to highlight the uniqueness of the campus.

Very nice campus! I'm impressed by all the safety measures they take there. From the cross walk flashing lights to the emergency call boxes all around.

If you are looking for great quality kitchen gadgets this is the place . Look around upstairs then go downstairs and check out the bargains. A short display of their history is also downstairs .We were thier on a holiday weekend and got large discounts on the items we bought .The staff is also very helpfull with any questions.

We just purchased the Professional HD. When we took it out of the box the logo was bent and peeling off. Very disappointing after spending so much money. Needs better quality assurance control. I know they had a backlog of orders to process but still this is no excuse. I hope we find nothing else wrong and that this was just a small mistake. Made in America is great and so should the quality.

Once a year we go to the KitchenAid Experience to shop during the Greenville sidewalk sales, and what a great time! Their high quality merchandise is a wonderful addition to my kitchen, where I do a lot of cooking and baking, and the store itself is beautiful! It even has a section in the basement that is like a small museum, where you learn about the evolution of this dynamic company!

Shopping for Kitchen Aid product during the sidewalk sale in Greenville is fun. There are plenty of KitchenAid products on hand. Checkout moves quickly and several friendly faces are on hand to help with anything you need.

You MUST go to the basement!! That's where the insane deals are! And a really cool mini museum!! The staff is so helpful and able to answer any questions about there products!!

Interesting cooking demo (with samples) plus museum, with bonus shopping experience

Lines were long, but people were patient and pleasant. Hard to look at everything due to lines and what I really wanted didn't go on sale until Saturday. However, they do take phone orders, know your item SKU, if possible. I think someone said free shipping on orders over $50. Fun to do once, but I'll shop online or via phone next time. 😉

Unique park with different art inside. Opted to rent a golf cart and that was fun but a bit too pricey. Overall it's a neat place to visit but I don't think I will go back. History of the owner was not appealing and it was lots of empty space. Good to visit once but I'd say that was enough

Cute park with varied sculptures. Not as big as I was expecting. I wish it were more walkable and less centered on vehicles/golf carts. We spent about 1.5 hours there. Not sure if it was worth $30 each but we had a good time! We also wished we could buy tickets in advance online, but they do take credit cards at their stand as your drive in.

Recently became a member here after my first visit and was bringing a car full of ppl with me a week later. Closer to any antiquities than ever before. Its like a museum but you get a better view to the displays. The staff has been very nice too.

Great place to take a walk and look at sculptures. 2 major problems though. 1 a lot of the art is placed a long way from the walking trail with no paths up to it. Have fun tromping through the grass. 2nd problem, the gallery loop is supposed to be a 2 mile walk, we were roughly 2.5 miles into the walk and cut across the hill to finish the walk. Management any place that has crossing roads and trails needs to have clearly marked signage!!! Fix the 2 problems and this becomes a 4 to 5 star review

Filled with scriptures outside as you drive thru, walk or rent a golf cart. Beautiful setting. 400 acres of beautiful nature. 3 Museums filled with extraordinary pieces of art. A must see for sure.

Renting an Art Cart at the Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park is a fun and efficient way to explore, especially if you have a limited time. It allowed us to see everything the park has to offer, from the many sculptures to the two on-site museums. A highlight was touring The Pyramid House, the former home of park founder Harry T. Wilks, where it all began. The museum guide was very informative, providing a deeper appreciation for the art and the park's history.

Always enjoyable. Think next time we're renting a golf cart. There are golf cart only spots unless you walk.

The mall was ok. Not alot of places we shop. Some prices seem higher than other places we have shopped. The woman's bathroom was really clean according to my wife. The men's bathroom was being cleaned so I had to use the family bathroom it was not so clean. But to give them credit someone was cleaning so it was probably next. If you like the ryoe of stores in the mall it's a good place.

Common areas are pet friendly. Kids play area near large food court. Great selection of store. Wayfinding signage not good. A few directional signs, but difficult to understand.

They have a great variety of stores, the pricing is decent, and I LOVE that the outdoor is shaded. The bathrooms were clean and well kept. We did not try the food court. I love that they have a play area for kids. We will definitely be returning to shop again!

Nice place to walk around and window shop most stuff still costs the same as stores

Cincinnati Premium Outlets stays consistent good variety, clean layout, and easy navigation for real shoppers. You can find solid deals if you move smart, but some stores hit harder than others. The energy’s relaxed, not overcrowded, and the setup makes it easy to lock in and get what you came for. Louie K’s Up approved smooth traffic, steady options, and brand flow worth the drive. 🏷🔥

Love this outlet store. Especially the Lindt store. If you like Lindt chocolates you’ll love this store. Flavors I had never tried. Pistachio and Tiramisu ended up being two of my favorites.

Good place for shopping Good quality and reasonable prices

I went with no expectations and was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the grounds were, the flow of the exhibits, and the quality of the art. The very first piece i encountered was a Chihuly, who happens to be my favorite glass artist of all time. Not to mention they have Rodin, Tiffany, and Monet. I will definitely be back.

I had the pleasure of shooting a wedding here this past spring, and I can't recommend the Dayton Museum of Art enough for couples planning their big day. The architecture is simply breathtaking and the art is stunning—it's like photographing inside a masterpiece. What makes it exceptional for wedding photography: The clean lines and neutral palette mean your wedding colors pop beautifully without competing with busy décor. The marble floors create gorgeous reflections during first dances, the sculpture garden is perfect for intimate portraits, and that grand staircase? Made for dramatic couple shots. As a Dayton wedding photographer at Melchy Hill Photography, this venue makes my job a joy. Your photos won't just capture memories—they'll look like they belong in a gallery. If you're booking the Dayton Museum of Art for your wedding, I'd love to help you capture your story in this stunning space.

Completely loved the museum. It was so pretty, clean, and cozy, full of good art. The arrangement of the rooms is just perfect, and all the staff were sweet and gentle.

This beautiful museum has a diverse collection from Ancient Asian art to modern art to impressionism to Dutch and everything in-between. The building is a joy to walk through and the cloistered garden is a gem.

Beautiful building and art! The staff are super friendly and it’s worth checking out all the cool events.

Visit the Dayton Art Institute! Learn about all forms of Art and Culture. I love the Dayton Art Institute, not only as a board member, but as a community leader. Become a member today or visit us when the mesuem is free. Bring a friend. Keep Art Alive!!!!! Love Dr. D❤️❤️❤️❤️

Amazing, really enjoyed the temporary galleries. Much larger than I thought it would be.

Lots of different and unique displays many dealing with Dayton history and manufacturing. There were displays that interest kiddos of all ages. There is a half scale train that was running every hour, a tube slide and a carousel. There was an enormous display of cash register and some toys manufactured in the area. An interactive model train town was very popular. Various displays of trains, Street cars, bicycles, early cars, and Wright brothers and birth of flight.

Wonderful place to go and spend the day learning and reminiscing about Dayton and all its contributions. Brought back so many memories and was able to tell grandkids about the places. So many neat things to see and learn about. They do a great job of restoring and maintaining the vast museum items and artifacts. They even have a working carousel and train, and you can’t forget about the working printing press. They have a great section about the devastating 1913 flood. This place is to be enjoyed by young and old alike. And if you’re adventurous enough, climb the 8 story tower that holds the old Gem City clock. So much to see.

A must-visit gem in Dayton! Carillon Historical Park is one of the most impressive and well-designed historical sites I’ve ever visited. It perfectly blends education, history, and nature — making it enjoyable for both adults and kids. From the moment you enter, you can tell how much care and effort has gone into preserving Dayton’s incredible history, especially its deep connection to innovation and aviation. The exhibits are fascinating — especially the Wright Brothers section, which gives you a real sense of how much Dayton contributed to the world of flight. The Carillon Tower itself is breathtaking, both in scale and in the way it symbolizes the city’s heritage. I also loved exploring the old buildings, vintage trolleys, and beautifully restored machinery — it truly feels like stepping back in time. The park grounds are beautifully maintained, with peaceful walking paths, scenic spots for photos, and plenty of benches to relax. The staff and volunteers are friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do — they make the history come alive. Don’t miss the Brewery and the Carillon Brewing Co., where you can enjoy excellent food and locally brewed beer in a historical atmosphere — it’s such a unique experience! Whether you’re a history lover, an aviation enthusiast, or just looking for a great day out in Dayton, Carillon Historical Park is absolutely worth the visit. It’s educational, inspiring, and beautifully done — a true treasure for the city and anyone who loves American history. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

New to the Ohio area and live about 25 minutes South of here so we decided to come check it out. Really glad we did! First the people working here are awesome. Helpful, kind and informative. We walked the entire area, road the big train and even jumped on the little train for a ride. Little train isn't always available to ride but apparently we came on the right day...throws you back to feeling like a kid for a few minutes! The grounds are kept up well, the walk is easy and relaxing and the big train is a nice relaxing ride around the park. Sit is the right place near one of the staff and they'll fill you in on the history and anything else you would want to know about. The park is full of history. I had no idea about the industrial impact Dayton had on the country at one time. Each stop at a new building is rich with information and there are plenty of cool things to look at. Wright brothers Museum was just as good as the rest of the park. Much larger than expected and lots of details about the Wright brother and their first flights. Overall it was neat to be thrown back in time and see where innovation has brought us. Even if you're not a big fan of history, it's worth the visit to check out some cool things on a relaxing walk around the park.

Absolutely love it! It was a spontaneous decision to go here as a date. It was a hit like escaping the city and going on vacation. You really will feel like you're not in Dayton Ohio. They have many things to see, and you must get the all-day train pass. Then before you leave, get some of the great food at their restaurant!

I visited Carillon Historical Park for the antique fire apparatus show and had a fantastic experience. It was a joy to photograph the vintage equipment and explore the park’s well-curated exhibitions. The park is exceptionally clean, easy to navigate, and offers a rich, engaging display of Dayton’s industrial history. A must-visit for history and photography enthusiasts alike!

Nice experience with the family. Special place to know about technology history in Dayton. Wonderful place with nice trees and original houses. The experience is fantastic for adults and kids.

MINIs of Cbus drove out from Columbus, well worth the drive! Fantastic farm out in the country with a large farm market along with a greenhouse. Lots of variety of locally grown produce and other goodies. Depending on the time of year, you can even berry pick or enjoy their sweet corn festival. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience! This is where you want to spend a beautiful Fall day. Hayrides, pumpkins, plenty of kid-fun activities, and a super friendly staff. Lots of good eats too! Be sure to check out the corn-launcher, awesome!!

Nice little farm with little playground for kids. They sell fresh products and some decorating stuff. There is a little cafeteria where you can get variety of ice cream, apple cider/ strawberry slush, BLT or hotdog.

Vegan approved!! Muscadine Jelly tastes aHHmazing!! The flavor is unique. Sweet, tart, earthy, and almost a musky taste. It has an intense grape flavor. I love it on warm biscuits!! ❤

Was at the market and could not believe all of the options they had for fresh fruits and vegetables among other things. It has really grown over the years. I was also pleasantly surprised how beautiful the hanging plants and flowers were. The customer service was outstanding. It's nice to have grown up in small town Troy and be able to get farm fresh produce and know where exactly it comes from. The Fulton family and their employees are all very attentive and so kind. Will be visiting this weekend for their sidewalk sale. Keep up the great work ...looking forward to upcoming events.

Beautiful! Very large selection of homemade foods and all local. Large variety of gifts and pumpkins! Even white ones!

Very pretty farm/ good pumpkins and family oriented

Had an amazing time…went as a family with our 4, 6, and 8 year old. Didn’t get off the island in time but had the best time!! Aaron was a GREAT game master and we can’t wait to come back! Thanks for all the clues - we will be getting more next time! Awesome adventure!

This is now our 5th time at breakout games, and once again they have not failed to deliver a fun and engaging experience. This time it was just me and my fiance, and we had a blast. Being pretty experienced allowed us to escape even with just 2 brains! Kavan was an amazing game master, kept things fun and mysterious the entire escape. Definitely will be returning with more friends to do one of their newer escapes!

Moss helped us complete the Museum Heist game! They are super funny and he worked with us on numerous occasions, before the game, during, and after. Great experience!

Breakout Games in Dayton with Megan as our room master was amazing!! We had a blast and can’t wait to come again.

Kidnapping 2 was so fun...challenging, but fun! Megan was a fun game master! Can't wait for new rooms to come out!

Aaron was a great game master! We played The Island this time around with 4 adults and ran out of time but got very close - only two puzzles to go. We have played multiple rooms and The island is in my top three. Definitely worth a visit if you like escape rooms.

Kelly is an absolute baller of a host. 10/10 would recommend, give this girl a raise. I played Kidnapping 2, pretty dal but Kelly made it fun.

Great air and history museum! You could easily spend an entire day here. Great historical explanations surrounding the exhibits and very organized. We've been there several times with the kids through the years and always had a great time. Most recently, my daughter and I visited during a "plane talk" event and were able to meet several retired members of the flight crew of different aircraft. Highly recommend!

The National Museum of the U.S. Air Force is truly one of the most impressive museums I’ve ever visited — and the fact that it’s completely free makes it even more unbelievable. The size of the place is massive, and each hangar takes you deeper into the history of aviation, space exploration, and the U.S. Air Force’s role around the world. The exhibits are incredibly well-organized, starting from early flight history and leading all the way to modern jets, stealth aircraft, and even space capsules. Walking through the hangars feels like stepping through different eras — from WWII bombers to Cold War jets to presidential aircraft. Seeing Air Force One up close and being able to walk inside some of the planes is such a unique experience. Every area is spotless and very well-maintained, and the amount of information available is impressive without being overwhelming. There’s something for everyone — whether you love military history, aviation technology, or just want to see some amazing aircraft in person. The staff and volunteers are also very friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate, which adds so much to the visit. You can easily spend several hours here without even realizing how much time has passed. The museum is perfect for families, tourists, history lovers, and honestly anyone who enjoys seeing something truly extraordinary. This is without a doubt one of Dayton’s biggest treasures, and a must-visit destination for anyone in the area.

Aviation history at its finest—absolutely world-class. This museum is a national treasure. From the Wright brothers to stealth bombers, the scale and depth of the exhibits are staggering. Four massive hangars packed with legendary aircraft, including the X-15, SR-71, and the B-29 that dropped the second atomic bomb. You can even walk through presidential planes like the one Lyndon Johnson was sworn in on. One of the most compelling exhibits is the story of “Flying the Hump”—the daring WWII airlift over the Himalayas to resupply Chinese forces after the Japanese cut off the Burma Road. Pilots flew from India to China through brutal weather, 18,000-foot altitudes, and zero navigation aids. It was dubbed the “Skyway to Hell”, and rightly so: over 500 aircraft were lost, and more than 1,300 crew members perished. Yet this mission was vital to keeping China in the fight and ultimately helped turn the tide in the Pacific Theater. The layout is intuitive, the signage is clear, and the staff—many of them veterans—are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate. Best part? Admission is free. You could easily spend a full day here (or several) and still not see everything. Whether you're an aerospace engineer, a military buff, or just curious about flight, this place will leave you inspired. One of the best museums in the country, hands down.

If you like airplanes and history, this is probably the best collection you'll ever see, minus the Smithsonian. Tons of interactive exhibits, for all ages. The volunteers are all super nice, especially the tour guides, and speak from a wealth of knowledge that's irreplaceable.

I cannot rate this place high enough! We had a pre-planned business event here with a catered lunch. We had the museum to ourselves (a group of 30 or so) due to the furlough, but they were able to accommodate us for the afternoon. I am a Navy Vet (specifically naval aviation) and history fanatic so I got to be a huge nerd and had a blast! They let us ride the scooters through the museum since they hadn’t been used in a while. And it was amazing seeing all these planes close up and to be able to read the history! I already want to plan a trip back, because I don’t think I even saw a fraction of what this place holds!!

So glad we took the time to visit this place. It costs nothing to go in, and there's so much to see and do. My toddler had a great time getting to see everything. They also have several planes you get to go inside of or sit in the cockpit of. There are also several interactive exhibits that are great for kids. Overall, it's an amazing display of an important part of history, while also preserving it all exceptionally well.

Must-visit for any plane enthusiast. Didn't have as much time as would be needed to take everything in fully, but that was ok because admission is free, and I still got to see what I had hoped to. Only thing missing I would have liked to see was a C-5, but other than that they have all the sought after aircraft in the USAF fleet, including things like a B-2 and SR-71.

Most amazing time!!! My 2 year old and 8 year old enjoyed it all day with all the different things to see and shows! It was so fun showing off our costumes and admiring all the other festival goers as well. If the cost of tickets is holding you back, splurge, we did and didn’t regret it! Will definitely go again next year :)

you can tell this renaissance festival is one of the best in america! there are so many events and restaurants to eat at. we bought season passes and we still haven't eaten at every restaurant yet! the food and mead are always so good and there're so many places to shop!

Insanely huge and well done Faire full of loads of fun things to do for the whole family. Don’t expect modern rides or attractions. It’s all things you’d find from the period (with a few modern conveniences like bathrooms and garbage cans!). If you have costumes, wear them. More than half the people attending are fully decked out.

Always an amazing time. Fantasy weekend is my favorite. The food went up this year 17.50 for a burger and 7.50 to add fries. We ate when we left but dole whip is a good snack or cheesecake on a stick.

As always, so much fun! Plus amazing food, can't wait to go back next year!

We came here for the Celtic festival, and love the atmosphere. Road was clearly marked, huge sign out on the road. The buildings were on point Renaissance themed. Parking on grass but a high hill so even after rain it wasn't muddy. Bathrooms were not outhouses, real running toilets which is surprising at a festival, this one is permanent. It's a fun place whatever event they are having. Also in early June, the Cicadas were EVERYWHERE, which made it interesting, a community togetherness when everyone was covering their drinks and batting at and catching them 😂😆 Even the bands were remarking how loud they were! But it added to the fun.

Loved it as always! Went opening weekend on Labor Day. Surprisingly it wasn't extremely busy. Got to see some great shows as well!

The food is ok, definitely could use some flavor. In my opinion it wasn't worth the price. The ice cream and cheese curds are good. They now have rides but I have two kids with a significant age gap. I was told my older child couldn't go in the play area that my younger child could go ( one of the few things he could do there). There was only one thing they could do together. So we weren't able to do much and it was very disappointing. The kids enjoyed the animals though.

I had an absolute blast here!!! I went for the first time the other day and who knew all the awesomeness that was there to experiance! A Carousel, Feeding Goats, All the pumpkins you can imagine, and not to mention the delicious Ice Cream!! 10/10 Recommend!

Such a fun fall activity! We got the adult wristbands and did the cornmaze, wagon ride, carousel, put put, and driving range. A very fun way to spend time with friends! (There is a foul smell on the right side of the farm due to sewage water they use to water their Christmas trees…so consider that).

It's a little pricey but worth it!! The staff is amazing and we already know the ice cream speaks for its self!! They have tons of stuff for the kids to do!! Its a great time, you won't be disappointed 😉

I haven’t been here in years and it’s changed so much but is still great! The food is wonderful and the staff are so kind. It gets busy but there are plenty of places to sit. Prices are what to expect for what I consider a destination place. There is so much to do there that we did not have time for. It would be a great day out for a family with children.

Great family fun. We made a trip here and played putt putt, saw the animals, and got some ice cream. There’s a lot of other activities that were closed for the night when we got there but we will be back again to try them out. A lot of ice cream flavors and options. There was also food available.

My daughter had a company picnic there she invited us. They served youngs ice-cream i loved the peanut butter ice cream very very good. Petting animals and feeding them the gramd kids loved. Batting cages were great. Everything there was nice! Prices reasonable. One the food. Not sure on anything else cuz everything was paid for by company. I highly recommend.

As I stepped into the nature preserve for the first time, I was filled with curiosity and a hint of apprehension. The sign warning of a high crime rate had made me uneasy, but I decided to push those thoughts aside. With no particular expectations, I wandered into the lush expanse that unfolded before me. To my delight, the preserve proved to be absolutely breathtaking. Cascading waterfalls echoed through the trees, their waters glistening in the sunlight as they tumbled over moss-covered rocks. The air was fresh, infused with the earthy scent of damp soil and blooming wildflowers, and the vibrant greenery all around was a feast for the eyes. As I strolled along the winding trails, I was captivated by the picturesque scenery—sunlight filtering through the canopy overhead, casting dappled shadows on the path below. It was a serene escape from the worries of daily life, and despite my initial concerns, I felt a profound sense of peace washing over me. In that moment, the beauty of nature held my undivided attention, easily eclipsing any fears I had about the area.

Peaceful walk through beautiful woodland trails beside the river. Went midweek middle of the day. Easy parking a short stroll from Clifton Mill where you can get a hearty breakfast before hitting the trails. We went late May after a very wet spring so there was lots of white water creating stunning views down the gorge. There are plenty of look outs to take your photos. Some trails are easy others needed sturdy footwear and good balance as rocky path is quite slippery after the rain.

No pets??? This nature preserve has decent natural views, but is lacking in basic groundskeeping and maintenance. It seems the State course to invest more in the fancy signs at the entrance than the actual trail itself. Uneven and unkempt trails, no trash/recycling, and no pets allowed?? Do better!

The trails are beautifully maintained, clean, and easy to explore, making it an enjoyable outing. I particularly loved photographing the wildlife—the area is teeming with diverse species and offers plenty of opportunities to capture nature at its finest. The scenery along the gorge is stunning. That said, the stairs on the gorge trails are quite steep and can be challenging without the right footwear. I plan to return with proper shoes to fully enjoy everything the preserve has to offer.

This nature preserve is stunning. If you are in the area, please don't miss it. It's amazing that you can be driving through cornfields and all of a sudden there's this! Be aware that the lower trail is a little more precarious and lots of rocks. Can be very slick if it has just rained. The upper trail is very easy to do. This preserve connects to the John Bryant State Park so if you want to make the trail longer you can head into the park. Today the flowers are beautiful. Every time I go there are different flowers blooming. Even if you only have a short time, you should still go here. Worth every minute.

If you love Hocking Hills like I do you'll love it here. Great easy trail, no litter and spectacular views!

Words can not describe how beautifull this park it. The parking is close and convenient, and the trails are clean and well kept.

Well restored Frank Lloyd Wright work. Reasonably priced 1.5 hour tours of the building are available almost every day at multiple times. Gift shop and parking available. Would recommend as a day trip. We had a great time and learned a lot about the house, the family, and the architect.

Fascinating Frank Lloyd Wright house. Tours are scheduled, so buy tickets online and in advance. 90 minute tour is interesting whether you are a Wright expert or this is your first tour. Plenty of details and information about him and the house. The tour is required to see inside the house. Definitely worth the price of admission.

Incredible tour with a super knowledgeable guide. Our guide packed so much information into our 90 minute tour-it was amazing. She gave us a history of the home and really shined a spotlight on the amazing restoration work that had been done. Would highly recommend for anyone with even a passing interest in architecture or design.

We loved it! The tour guide made the whole visit. He clearly knew a lot about the house and FLW. You can tell he really loves sharing this with people and that really made it special. The house is beautiful and lovingly restored. You really get the feel that FLW was going for in this house. The gift shop is full of all sorts of fun things. I definitely want to go back for Christmas presents! This is not handicap accessible. There are multiple sets of stairs and no elevator.

Hidden gem in a diamond in the rough city. Springfield has such a rich architectural and cultural legacy, and it shines still despite economic downturns and negative news coverage. Don’t sleep on the Westcott House! It is a magnificent experience from start to end. Our tour guide was dynamic and super knowledgeable, and kept the entire tour engaging with captivating details.

Was not our first FLW tour … won’t be our last either. The docent spent over an hour and a half with our small group of 5. Very in depth tour and fascinating to hear about all the efforts (and successes) that went into renovations. Sort of a must do if you’re a fan of his style.

Very enjoyable and educational tour. This was my first of more to come, Frank Lloyd Wright designed homes.

Took my family here for the first time and we all had an amazing time. Our tour guide Dan was very knowledgeable and did a good job on the tour. My kids also enjoyed the gem mining activity. The place was nice and clean, and they really did a good job preserving the cavern.

We've made it our mission to see all the caverns in Ohio and this is supposed to be one of the best and most colorful. The price is comparable to the other caverns (which is obnoxiously high) but we found ourselves walking out a bit underwhelmed. The tour guide was enjoyable and knowledgeable but the colors were seriously lacking for such a big claim. The formations and columns were cool and you end up going seriously deep underground but I enjoyed the self guided tours at one of the other caverns more than this tour.

We had SO much fun at the Caverns. Wonders around every corner and so incredible! Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The gift shop was spectacular and all the staff were helpful and pleasant. So blessed to have this place in Ohio. The kids also enjoyed the gem mining activity. So cool and exciting to see what they reveal in their bags. 10/10 experience. Thank you!

The Ohio Caverns were beautiful and worth the almost hour trip. Any longer probably unless you’re a traveling cave fanatic. Anyways with that being said the staff there is very nice and understanding my daughter bought tickets in advance but accidentally thought she for them for the weekend we decided to go. Unfortunately it was for the following week but they went a head and lets go that day instead. The tour guys are very knowledgeable as will. As for the cavern itself it is nice. But beware if you have claustrophobia really bad. I don’t recommend they will tell you how deep you are. If you are scared of the dark they will turn off the lights for a few moments so that you can see how dark it is if you were down there with no lights. But they will warn you before they turn them off. I also don’t recommend it for handicap people which need a walker, or wheelchair after all it is a cavern so there are low place and tight places and you have to climb 60 stairs to get out of the cavern. Now if you have a hard time walking after you make it out or if you are a elderly person who decided to go down with a cane they will send someone with a golf cart to take you back to the gift shop. You are allowed to take pictures with your phones with the flash on but not allowed to take video which is understandable since they do give you information about the caverns. If you can’t afford the caverns they do have a free trail of trees to adventure in and a lovely park; picnic area to eat and enjoy the view, and a nice gift shop to spend your money on for all those people who love all types of rocks yes I am talking about all you geologist. Lastly and most importantly if you are lucky to get to see the caverns please don’t touch the rock or the quartz down there there thing a have grown for thousands of years and will be there still growing even a small can take up 4,000 years to grow just that size. They are beautiful so please keep it that way so that everyone can see for future’s to come. Why I am saying this is because they showed a once beautiful peace of nature that they called a lucky stone that they used to let people touch on the way out that is now looks dirty from the oils of our human hands. So just be respectful and take photos and keep hands away.

We were staying at Indian Lake State Park and didn’t have many plans. Saw something for the caverns so decided to make the trip down and check them out. I’m glad we did. We did both the Historic and Natural Wonders tours. If you just want to see stalagmites and stalactites the natural wonders tour is perfect. If you like history and want to learn a little more about the area and discovery of the caverns then do the combo tour, I’m glad we did both. The caverns are 54 degrees year round. It’s been in the 90’s for the past week. I took a sweatshirt on the first tour but ended up being hot so left it in the car for the second tour. The colors are really neat and have some really cool designs. The formations are always pretty as they are always so different from place to place.

We did the nature tour and it never disappoints. Our guides were knowledgeable and their voices carried well throughout our group of around 10-12 people. My granddaughter enjoyed seeing all the formations in the caverns and wants us to take her cousins when they're in town for a visit.

I did both the history and natural wonder tours( recommend both) It started with the history tour and how it was discovered. There's not a lot of formations in this tour ( explained why in the tour) The natural wonder tour was amazing, each room we entered was beautiful. You will however hear the same jokes on both tours. But both guides were great

So, this place really does deserve 5 stars because it is an incredibly beautiful splash pad. The few unfortunate things that brought it down was the day I was here on the 4th of July, the waterfall wasn't working, just the spray jets. The one other thing is there needs to be more seating with shade to accommodate more people. There was 4 picnic tables, only 2 with shade. Otherwise the place is majestic. Well done layout and beautiful. There is ample parking. There are restrooms available near the parking lot. And the rabbit sculpture on top of the hill was impressive. I've been to many splash pads and this one really is at the top of my list.

First, I want to point out the obvious—the 3 giant rabbits on top of a hill. Spiral path to get up there. PLEASE- take the time to go up and look closer at the rabbits and what’s ON them. It’s so cool. The park, Very nice clean park. Path is asphalt that partially goes around the pond. The water pad was closed for the season. Tons of area to picnic, play football, frisbee or fly kites.

Very interesting and creative Statues, but not much seating or anything else.

I really would give this place more of a 3.5. While the bunny statues are amazing, there isn’t much else to do. Walk around the ponds and see wildlife, and the splash pad. Unfortunately the little leprechauns which I’m assuming spray water are broken? Most of the other spray jets are working and it’s a decent sized area, but literally no shade.

Cool little place with water jet in the ground. The bunnies made out of recycled material is cool al

Amazing park with unique sculptures that make the place unforgettable. The wide open space is perfect for walking, taking photos, or simply relaxing outdoors. Always a wonderful vibe and worth coming back.

Review addressing accessibility Super cool/odd park! It has a few fun things, like the dancing rabbits, water play area, grassy areas, paved paths & ponds. It is a pretty accessible space, too. The park has a couple of sidewalk paths that go around/through it. They are paved and in good condition. I saw one steep spot in the sidewalk, but I think it’s avoidable There was no seating on any of the sidewalk paths that I saw, though the area where the rabbits are/the water area has some picnic tables with umbrellas. There are also boulders that some folks might be able to rest on at other parts of the wall I wasn’t there when the water was on, so I can’t speak to that ground’s slipperyness. Though I do remember seeing a sign that said water shoes should be worn in the water area GPS took me to an entrance of the park that is in a neighborhood. There’s no parking right by that entrance, so you have to walk just a bit, but it’s all paved sidewalks. The walk to the dancing rabbits is pretty short from where I parked, it would be a nice short adventure! The walk up to the rabbits is paved, but a little steep. The rabbits are cool to see from below though too (where’s there’s picnic tables) Lastly I’d just add that the rabbits themselves are a cool sensory experience!! They have all sorts of random things on them (coins, toy, keys, fork etc). It was fun to notice and touch all the little things that make these giant rabbits!
