It truly an amazing experience. I went last Friday and that was my 5th time going in a row! Some of the photos are of me and horror actors some are scarier than others but they are all super nice and fun to talk to and they definitely give you a spook. If you go I suggest buying a ticket for the haunted hey ride and for spooky land, it’s not to expensive and there’s SO fun to do! In spooky land that’s were you can see the horror actors free range, there’s a corn maze, bounce pad, kids haunted house, older kids haunted house, (not talking about the haunted barn), play struchers, petting zoo with goats pigs and chickens, bounce house, sports zone and SO much more! The hay ride it’s such a amazing thing to do as well it’s 25 min and at the half way mark you get free cider and donuts and it truly is a spooky scary but very fun and cool experience! Definitely recommend!!!!!

Me and my friend went to Blake's this weekend for the sunflowers festival and our dreams came true!! 🌻🌻 We absolutely loved it here and it was amazing to see how many small businesses they help support with the market! We got food there and the wings were the best wings I've ever had and reasonably priced and amazing portions! We can't wait to come back this fall and pick apples & drink cider! 🍎🍂

Very nice place for family outing, specially for kids. Kids will enjoy a lot with lot of different types of activities. U-pick is a plus for kids or fruit/vegetables picking enthusiasts. It has truck and train rides for visitors, if you want to pick apples you have to buy bags, min $35 a bag. Train ride is a non-stop 15min ride. You can buy some snacks, but its expensive. I saw a dine in restaurant, but didn't get time to explore, cider mill has variety of delicious jams, veggies, juice, donuts. I like the big tents in different places, it gave me the comfort of resting and eating at different places. Bathrooms are well maintained. Overall, its a 4 plus place to visit in fall with family. Bring some snacks with you if you want to avoid some expensive snacks. Staffs are very helpful and informative. Definitely will visit again.

Very nice place. I visited the tasting room and enjoyed a cider mill donut flavored hard cider from their immense tap selection. I ordered the chicken panini and I thought it was good but could use more of the jalapeño sauce they claimed to have put on it. I proceeded over to little side so and purchased some bottles of whisky and some hard cider to bring home to Minnesota with me.

Great place for families to spend the day. Sunflower Festival was going on this weekend. Restaurant with very good food and options. Petting zoo and playground for little ones and tap room and music for the adults. Highly recommend a visit. All year long activities 🌻🍻

Haven't been there in years and was very impressed. We had an absolutely amazing time. Food was amazing and so was the cider. Service was on point. The only thing that was off was the Carmel popcorn 🍿 that I bought it was absolutely terrible. I was so shocked but someone really needs to taste that. It didn't even taste like anything. Very disappointed. But other than that everything else was phenomenal.

Amazed, and worth the drive! Blake's Orchard & Cider Mill is a great place to visit with your family. I had purchased their cider in the grocery store numerous times in the past, but I had never visited their Orchard and cider Mill. There is a large campus with plenty of parking and plenty to do. There are hayrides for the children, also a wheeled train to ride on. You can purchase cider and donuts, or if you are hungry purchase lunch items and set on the numerous picnic tables to enjoy yourself. Various buildings in tents set up to explore their operation. There is a separate area on the campus to pick your own apples. I was amazed at the size this operation. Expect large crowds in season on the weekend.

Awesome state park with lots of privacy and cool views of the freighters going down the river. We stayed in the wagon wheel part of the campground and it was nice with every lot having a pretty level asphalt pad to park on. Some of the spots are a little tight with all the trees around but nothing too crazy just might have to ask your neighbors to move their trucks. The bathrooms were older and outdated but fairly clean and well stocked for the most part. The front area of the campground would be a nice part as well but it’s a lot more like a crowded parking lot. We liked the wagon wheel because there lots were so private.

We camped in algonac state park, it was beautiful. Great campground with fun views of the St. Clair River. Check-in was easy and park is well kept. Playgrounds are very small (swings and a slide), but there is an amazing bike path which does lead to a big playground and dog park. Highly recommend bringing bikes. There are also lots of picnic spots with a large field to play, horse shoe, and corn hole. Dump stations were probably the best we ever experienced with 4 stations and all equipment you would need without having to unpack your own including a sewer hose already attached to the drain, water hose, and a bucket for filling with water.

Algonac state park sites 213 (fifth wheel) 214(travel trailer) and 215 (empty) 216 is also empty in the background of 215 so dont go thinking it is just a massive site lol As the state website says, yes on 214 we did need an additional hose, luckily we heeded the warning and were prepared. As a side note, a fair amount of the lot is located on the slide out side of the camper. Not bad for setting up and at least there isn't an obstacle blocking things but it does make the site feel smaller than other state parks once in place because it has a lot of wasted space on that side. Still plenty of room on the awning side to be comfortable but I thought it was worth noting for informational purposes. Also the sewer setup is new and I am happy to say that the opening for the sewer connection is well below the level of the trailer so that it drains properly (unlike the last full setup we had at a non state park site). For sure, 214 in particular, the parking pad is nice and level but it has a significant drop off to the lawn area of the site. Our 3 step unit is usually set quite short as our trailer does not sit insanely high off the ground. At this site our legs are fully extended and we had to put some 1 inch pads under the stair legs in order to get them to sit nicely. Still fits but the bottom step is a bit taller than most would like it to be, especially for someone with mobility issues (like my parents in the fifth wheel next door.). None of this is meant to be a complaint, purely informational. Overall the site is beautiful, the agent at check in was personable, we had no trouble getting in our space (though there is a tree that goes right up against the back of the parking pad on 214 and it meant there was not enough room to park our truck in front of our trailer which is 30 feet from tip to tail.). The view of the water from these sites isn't amazing but it is there. If you are desperate to see the ships go by it can be done from the site or a short walk down the street leaves a decent view as well. This page warned us of bugs at this park this year but so far it has not been bad. Just a few gnats flying around at dusk, but there are a lot of ants it seems. Still overall I highly recommend this park and these sites are pretty solid all around. (P.s. of all these three sites, 214 is the only one with no natural shade at any point during the day). Also the shooting range is perfectly adequate and exceeded expectations. But still is far enough away from the campsites that it does not disturb anyone. P.P.S. the cell phone service signal coverage area is fantastic. I am sitting on my site right now and have 2 to 3 bars of 5g Verizon service.

I cant really find any negatives. Will be coming back next year. I guess if you dont like guns or gun noise there is a shooting range here that you can hear from time to time. Fun to watch freighter go by on the river.

Great place to camp with the family. Seeing the boats was absolutely amazing for the first time. They were HUGE. We will definitely be coming back

Great place to watch freighter. Campground is clean and well maintained, although they could do with fill dirt in many of the camp sites. We had a pretty good pot hole in our site. Another had a small standing puddle after a rain and several other sites had potholes as well.

Really enjoyed watching the ships come and go. Site was level, bathroom and dump station were newly updated.

First time here for the throwback of movie clue. Alot of staff standing around talking and took a minute to get my food i ordered but overall not bad. Seats recline, sound is decent. Loud movie next door you could hear during the quiet times of our movie.... but not bad. I'd check out the show times and come back sometime. If you are in the area I'd say stop in and check out the movies.

Great movie theater, very classes for a movie spot . Pretty decent food selection. They also have a very nice sit down area with a piano and nice leather furniture. Only thing I didn't like was I couldn't get my hot food right away they said they would. Bring it to my seat in the theater. I never did get my food and had to get a refund after the movie was over .

Emagine has always been my favorite movie theatre but this location in specific is great. It’s always clean and well kept. Absolutely love the comfy seats that have a heating option as well!! emagines food selection is so large and their popcorn is delicious

I came here with my family for a movie, and unfortunately, it was one of the worst theater experiences I’ve had. When we arrived, I noticed a group of employees standing around the bar, talking with each other instead of helping guests. When I asked for a drink, I was met with a dirty look. After waiting, I asked someone directly for assistance, and was told they weren’t trained to serve drinks and were “just talking to friends.” The tone and attitude felt unprofessional and dismissive. I then asked to speak with a manager, but after waiting a considerable amount of time, no one ever came to address my concerns. For a family outing, I expect staff to be welcoming and attentive. Sadly, that was not the case here.

Me and my friends are 14, and we came to this theater just to have a fun night out. Instead, we ended up getting kicked out for something that really didn’t feel fair at all. Before the movie started, we were talking quietly—nothing loud or disrespectful, just whispering like anyone would while waiting. A man sitting near us turned around and looked annoyed. Then he did it again, even though we weren’t even being loud. Once the movie started, we did get a warning from a staff member. After that, we took it seriously and stayed completely quiet. We didn’t talk, didn’t whisper—just sat and watched the movie like everyone else. We followed the rules and were being respectful. But even after we stopped talking, the same man kept turning around and staring at us like we were still doing something wrong. It felt like he just had a problem with us no matter what. Eventually, someone from the theater came back and told us we had to leave. We were confused and upset because we had listened to the warning and weren’t doing anything anymore. It didn’t matter—we still got kicked out because one guy kept complaining. Nobody else in the theater seemed to care or notice us at all. It was just that one man who kept reacting, and even though we had stopped talking completely, his complaints were still taken more seriously than the fact that we were actually behaving. It honestly felt like we were being treated unfairly just because we were a group of teens. We weren’t causing problems, we weren’t being loud, and we listened when we were told to be quiet. What else were we supposed to do? Getting kicked out like that in front of everyone was embarrassing, and it made us feel like we didn’t belong there—even though we paid for our tickets and followed the rules. This whole situation could’ve been avoided if the staff had taken a moment to see what was actually happening instead of just reacting to one person’s repeated complaints. We’re definitely not coming back to this theater. Nobody deserves to be treated like that, especially when they’re doing everything right.

I recently visited Emagine Theaters for the first time after moving to the area, and the experience was unacceptable. Several staff members were on their phones instead of assisting guests, and one employee in the kitchen even appeared to be watching something on their device. When I went to order food at the concession stand, the person working the popcorn counter gave me a dirty look, as if I was inconveniencing them. The worst part was when I asked to speak with a manager. The employee at the bar literally told me, “the managers don’t have time to deal with this annoying customer.” Like… excuse me? To be called “annoying” just for asking to speak with a manager is beyond unprofessional—it’s flat-out disrespectful. My family and I recently moved here from Kansas, where we regularly went to AMC, and we were hoping Emagine could be our new theater of choice. Instead, our first visit was so negative that we left with the entire night ruined. Emagine, do better. If this is the standard of service you allow, we will be taking our business elsewhere. Another thing. Judging by the reviews I have read about this theater and the response. It basically just sounds like a copy and paste response from this location almost like an Bot. When an normal company would take the time to respond normal to the problems I received at Emagine Macomb.

This used to be my favorite theatre because of it was well maintained and has all the nice perks. But over the past couple years, more so the past year. There's certain movies they don't show and if they do, they don't leave it up long enough. There's limited to no good variety/DIVERSE movies anymore. I had to switch to MJR.

We were just here last week ( oct.2025) for our mini getaway and we love the place, you really have to pay entrance $10 to get in but once you're in there park is clean and wonderfully beautiful. They have mini beach and walkways and lots of picnic areas and playground for kids. Our first time and my daughter loved the place.

This place is amazing. I have been to the other metro Parks but this one is by far my favourite. Being on Lake St. Clair is gives me the illusion of being on a ocean. The beach is so big and sandy. There is a lot of space for everyone. I also enjoy the playground for the kids and also the splash pad and pool area. If you are looking for a park this is it! Do be aware that sometimes they do close the beach due to testing the water for e-colei. But most times it's clear.

What a great park to spend a nice sunny afternoon at. Or better yet, anytime of day of year This park has it all Beach Playground Putt putt golf 18 hole par 3 course Marina with transient boat slips Clean bathroom facilities with showers in the marina Nature center Nature trails Splash pad Pool with water slides Basketball Volleyball What more could you ask for in a park?

Lake St. Clair Metropark in Harrison Township, Michigan, is a well-maintained destination offering a variety of activities for visitors. The park features clean restrooms and is pet-friendly, making it suitable for families and pet owners alike. Resting areas and picnic spots are available throughout the park, providing ample space for relaxation.  The 600-foot sandy beach along Lake St. Clair is a highlight, offering scenic views and a pleasant environment for swimming and sunbathing. For sports enthusiasts, the park includes facilities for basketball, volleyball, tennis, and pickleball. An 18-hole par-3 golf course and a miniature golf course with waterfalls and rivers cater to both serious golfers and casual players. Bicycle trails, including a 3-mile paved Hike-Bike Trail with panoramic lake views, are also available for cyclists.  Additional amenities include a nature center, marina, and various court game facilities. The park’s well-maintained environment and diverse offerings make it a recommended spot for a day of recreation and relaxation. 

Absolutely fantastic beach area I was blown away. The nature center, nature trail (swampy, lot of bugs though!), beach and activities were simply beautiful, I had a great time and we’ll be back multiple times for sure

Great park with a nice mix of trails by the water and within the woods. Nature center trails have awesome bird watching opportunities.

I love the nature trails here but I unfortunately found out today people can hunt here as long as they’re in the water. I was watching a beautiful family of geese fly over from the boardwalk and then witnessed 2 being shot out the air. As someone who goes there for bird watching, this was shocking to see. At a bare minimum there should be signs making you aware the wildlife you’ve gone there to see may be shot in clear view. There’s an observation deck to view the wildlife and that’s exactly where they were hunting. Multiple groups of them, just shocking. I would avoid the Bay Area / boardwalk completely if this is something you don’t want to see, I wish I had known before going so I didn’t have to witness it myself.

I don’t really like going here, and im convinced most other residents of Clinton Township don’t like going here either, and you probably like it more because you aren’t from here. But now with Lakeside gone, this is like the only option and so now it’s 10% better than it was before. My complaints come largely from the fact that this is an outdoor mall in a state which should not have an outdoor mall. Coming to this mall in the winter or fall isn’t a very fun experience the way it is during the summer. I think it’s unnecessary to have an outdoor version of sommerset in what I call a “workers town” because, we are mostly working class residents that commute to surrounding cities. Very few of us actually afford to shop here regularly. Beautiful mall, I enjoy coming here to eat and go to the movies but that’s really about it. I suppose that’s the con when it comes to living in a township that props up big business and punishes the small ones that do exist here.

Beautiful, and well kept. A unique mall experience. Highly recommend if you’re looking for year-round entertainment, great shopping and dining. Sola Salons is beautiful. A one stop shop for all of your hair/beauty needs. This mall is safe and secure 24/7.

I love coming here. Always a calm vibe and plenty of variety of shops. I also love that the mall is dog friendly. Mostly a fashion mall, but there are some other cool stores here as well

Very nice place for shopping! 🛍 Plus they have a few restaurants, and a movie theater for entertainment. Nice place to spend a day out with family or friends 🧡.

Great atmosphere! Pet friendly! Amazing atmosphere especially around Christmas. They are just lacking better stores. At lot of wasted space

Partridge Creek Mall is the most beautiful mall I’ve had the pleasure to shop, go to the movies and take in to excellent restaurants. I hope it lives forever for future generations to enjoy!

Tell me, who can't have a good time here?! Beautiful layout. Wonderful stores to browse through. Kids playing in the water fountain pads. Just a great way to spend the afternoon....walking around...shopping. Fabulous anytime of the year!!

Absolutely gorgeous! Took my family about 4 hours but we enjoyed every minute of it. The penguins were probably my top favorite. Second favorite was the polar bear. So entertaining. It was too cold for some of the animals to be out, but the staff was very interactive with quite a few exhibits. Definitely a great time.

The Detroit Zoo is such a fun place to spend the day! It’s super clean, easy to walk around, and has so many amazing animals to see. The polar bears and penguins were the highlights for me—especially the penguin exhibit, which is just awesome. You can get really close and watch them swim right past you.There is also a short train ride (though expensive considering they charge for one way ride and double up if you want to return) which is fun for kids. There’s a nice mix of big animals like giraffes and lions, plus smaller areas for birds and reptiles. It’s great for kids, but adults will have a blast too. Recommend to purchase giraffe feeding tickets in advance as they are limited for the day. There is also the dragon forest and the carousel that adds to the fun activities to do. There are lots of shady spots and benches to take a break, which is nice on hot days. Food inside is fine but a bit pricey, so maybe bring a few snacks. Staff were friendly and helpful, and parking was easy. Recommend parking near the water tower as that is closest to the entry gates. Overall, it’s a great day out for the whole family!

Very good day. We lucked out with great weather, had no issues getting a wheelchair for one of our party recovering after surgery. We went for Dragon Forrest, but also as none of us had been there in a few years. The Penguin exhibit was great! Also the Polar bear area. The dragons were very neat. I bought a "bubble sword" a lion headed light up wand that shot bubbles and had fun shooting bubbles throughout the day. Even zoo employees had fun talking to me about it. Several children also enjoyed it. The only negative was that the lions are protected by plexiglass and either due to the sun or angles, nearly impossible to photograph and Several people and children had a hard time seeing them.

Loved the zoo. Very well maintained trails and paths with all amenities well situated. Very kid friendly atmosphere with allmost all the places suitable for stroller and Kids. All animal viewings are designed to suit for kids viewing. Center of attraction was penguin and polar bear. They have many food optionsw with vegetarian options. Food wasnt great but good enough for zoo trip. couple of stores around zoo offering draft beer, ice cream and cold drinks. Recommend to go in morning or evening as during noon time get hot and sunny, also all animals move to shed and hard to see. Few of the buildings were under construction nd closed during peak summer season.

Took my family here. First time we've been. The staff are awesome! Super nice, helpful, and friendly! We walked all over the place. The reason I gave 3 stars is that the maps dont have all picnic areas marked. The only ones are at the front of the zoo. Also, about half the exhibits and animals were inside, or they were closed. It kinda sucks that there are things in the zoo that cost even more money. We did end up having a good time. Thus was a once un a lifetime trip. It wasn't worth the 3h 48min drive there. It was chaos to get there.

I visited this zoo from out of state and I was thoroughly impressed! This is a huge zoo with lots of walking. The enclosures are all large and well maintained and the bigger ones have multiple vantage points which is neat! The signage is great, the volunteers were helpful and the entire zoo was clean with gorgeous horticulture. I was glad to see that the volunteers were stopping kids from doing things such as banging on the glass. The only thing I didn’t like was the AI signage at the Dragon Forest. I wish real artists had been used to illustrate the descriptions of the mythical creatures. I wish I had skilled that part and enjoyed the rest of the zoo more. Overall, I had a great time and would highly recommend this zoo!

It's a beautiful island park with amazing views of Canada, the Detroit River and skyline. There’s something for everyone. They have walking trails, picnic spots, a beach, aquarium, a huge playground, food trucks , and even a historic fountain. P.S. Don’t try the lemonade from this place it was NASTY!

Reasons why it's five stars: • The aquarium, we'll taken care of aquatic life. Clean, free, and informative. • Plant life, the green houses are beautiful well taken care of. I believe it is all volunteer based so that is even nicer. • I didn't use the bathrooms but just like any public bathrooms, I'm sure they are a hit or a miss. • Lots of walking, bike riding, picnic areas. Pretty buildings, ponds, and nature. Worth a check out. Will go again!

This place has so much potential to be a 5 star location but it appears to be so neglected. No good clean working restrooms. Lots of trash everywhere and some of the people there had loud music. We wanted to relax by the water and enjoy the good weather but it was impossible.

Always a fun experience so relaxing. The sand the water are so relaxing as well. Me and my family try to come here as many times as possible. Perfect place to grill and enjoy family time. With plenty of grills and picnic areas. Definitely recommend for anyone to come and relax. Definitely need to come back again. Watching the sunset here is AMAZING 😍 ☀️

A big island with lots of activities to do and experience including a conservatory, aquarium, boathouse, fishing, beach and a light house at the other end of the island. We didn't have time to do most of the acitivities which are fun and free

We had a picnic and went to the arboretum as an activity for my work, it was beautiful! We will go again and grill something next time. Also good for a bus tour on rainy days, that's what we did last time we went lol

Beautiful from start to finish! Great place to relax and wander and enjoy all the gorgeous plants.

The first time I came to the DIA I was suprised to see they had a native American wing. Michigan is home to a few tribes. Was bummed to see nothing about the local tribes there. I asked a docent " you have so many local tribes one being the largest remaining tribe in the united states and there is no mention of them " is there some reason why? I know most museums repatriated a lot so injust said i think your really missing out on showcasing the art of the ojiibwe the rest of the annishinabeeg tribes. Some ofntheor art and embroidery is stunning. That was in 2023. 2025 im on public radio and I hear your opening an exhibit of a contemporary indigenous ojibwe artist? Wow. That's really cool im impressed. I love the DIA but now I really dig ya! Keep on getting better and giving me good reasons to come in. By the way their open sketch is way cool! Thank you DIA your one of a thousand reasons ill never move out of this city!

Beautiful building filled with great art and historic artifacts. Only spent 3 hours in there so I didn't get the chance To explore the whole thing, it's definitely worth another trip or 2 to really take everything in. The Cafe was super busy by the time I got hungry so I skipped it but it looks like a nice relaxing courtyard to take a break in if you're planning on spending the whole day there. The Diego Rivera mural is truly a masterpiece. Shout out the lovely Michelle at the front desk!!!

It was a dream of mine to visit this museum one day. I finally got the opportunity while visiting the University of Michigan and had some hours to kill while waiting for my flight. The access was very quick and the staff gladly took out carry on luggage and bags at the cost check so we could visit the place, something other museums don’t usually do. The place was even more magnificent than I imagined and crowds were light on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. The store is also worth noting, since I collect museum catalogues I purchased one and was pleasantly surprised by the affordable prices, compared to New York or Paris, where you can find world-class museums such as this one.

I could have spent days and days here. Loved all of it. Every single piece of art. So much to take in. So many things to do, not just look at beautiful art! Workshops, preformacnes, two delicious places to eat, and an amazing gift shop that is its own art gallery. So much fun, I cant wait to go back.

I was super impressed by the museum’s wide-ranging collection—there’s so much to see! The mural in the central room really stood out. Definitely recommend listening to the guided tour for that part—it’s fascinating. The museum also has a mix of functional spaces with different styles and programs, which keeps things interesting. When you need a break, don’t miss the courtyard café—it’s one of the best I’ve seen in any museum and makes you want to linger. We happened to visit on a weekend when they were hosting a Taiwan tea culture lecture and tasting. What an incredible experience! Not only did we learn a lot about Taiwan’s rich tea traditions, but we also got to enjoy some truly amazing teas. Another highlight is the building itself. The size feels just right—not overwhelming, not underwhelming. It’s easy to navigate and still offers plenty of exhibition space.

Exceeded expectations! A very cool collection. Spent a few hours there. I especially liked the boards they had up near some of the paintings explaining what you're looking at. If limited on time I'd start on floor 2, then do floor 3, then 1. Great vibes! 20$ per person. Wayne County residents are free with ID. Bought tickets there. Parking was 8 $ nearby.

This is MOTOWN so there's not much to say because the history speaks for itself. To see and hear about the history in person was a great experience. There are plenty of facts to learn about Motown that will surprise you. To see the original items and hear the back stories is captivating. Viewing the wall with the album covers was interesting because I still have 11 of those albums. The staff was courteous and friendly. The tour guide kept you informed and interested throughout the tour. They are in the process of expanding, so it will become even more intriguing.

So I really wanted to give this place five stars however be aware that it is a very short tour and when they have accomplished their new building I am sure I will be coming back to edit. Our tour guide was very knowledgable and we definitely learned a lot. My aunt who I was there with is high functioning autistic so people sometimes dont notice and I felt like the tour guide was a little short with her. The tour I believe last less than hour and the end of it getting to walk through such an iconic studio is very cool. The gift shop is well stocked and what made this place was the knowledge of the tour guide. I feel that with out her I would have not really learned much and as I said even though she was a little short with my Aunt I will not take away from her knowledge, her enthusiam, and cadence was superb.

Pure history! highly recommended. By tickets in advance is a MUST. In 2024 i tried to walked-in 4 tickets and they were sold out!. This year 2025 i got my tickets in advance through the web site and it was easy and affordable. There are guided tours only but they give you enough time and space to walk around, enjoy the exhibits and take pictures. No videos allowed. Street park and highly get the app before your arrial time, i had luck and found a free parking spot in a nerby street. You can feel the history in this walls, it is an amazing life experience. I dont recall the name of my guide but he was so easy going, fun, entretained, the best.

Absolutely essential to visit. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable. And a performer in the best possible way. Thought we knew alot but learned so much more! Also. A woman on our tour had worked there in the early 1970s. This was her first return... 2025!

Such a historical beauty! The neighborhood is well maintained. While we did not go inside, the grounds were manicured and the staff appeared to be engaged with the customers in a positive way. Side street parking is available, but there may be a short walk on a busy day. Do not park in the funeral home parking lot next door. I admire the work being put into maintaining this historical gem.

I did the tour and it was very interesting. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour interesting and fun. The history was amazing and hearing the stories brought the place to life. The grounds were well kept and really made you feel the vibe of Motown. I learned so much and would highly recommend the tour.

A MUST SEE when you come to Detroit! What a fabulous tour and incredible story. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and funny! Be sure to get your tickets months in advance or wake up early and stand in line to see if there are any day off tickets left.

Loved experiencing a baseball game here. Lots of restaurants and things to see around the park and less than a 10 minute drive to the tunnel if you're coming from Canada. The park itself had so many neat features from the noteworthy tiger statues to the carousel right in the middle of the food court. Seats were great and reasonably priced. We'll definitely be coming back for a ball game here.

Tigers game!! Comerica Park is a great place to take in a baseball game with something for everyone. There is a carousel and Ferris wheel for kids and those young at heart. There are plenty of bars for the over 21 crowd. It is an airy stadium that managed to stay cool in the shade despite a very warm Detroit day. Sight lines are great from every seat. They have a newer type of netting for fan protection that is more transparent and less obstructive of viewing the game. 100% recommend!

Great experience and view, while waiting for the game to start I recommend going to the Farris wheel. The seats inside the stadium are very comfortable and quality. The food is great, especially the hotdogs. Overall I recommend going and buy tickets in advance.

I have been to a few Tigers games and man I love this field! There is not a bad seat in the house and the food and drinks along with the little stores inside are so good! If you get a seat on the higher stands the bathrooms aren’t bad to get in and out of either! Overall and amazing time.

Amazing simply a great place for the whole family! Comerica Park offers all types of venues from baseball football basketball concerts Grand events you name it this is the perfect place for so many different venues there are tons of restaurants in the area quick access to the freeway lots of stores and shopping just an amazing place

Hadn't been in about 3 years and my bf had never been! The baseball ferris wheel was a lot of fun at only 2 dollars! I wish it had a better view / view of the field ideally. There's so much to do outside of watching the game. Come prepared to over spend on food. We payed 6 dollars for bottled water. We went on August 23rd. The tigers played against the KC royals and won 4-2! Great game to watch! Go tigers!!!!🐯

Comerica Park truly stands out as one of the best ballparks in the country, offering an incredible experience from the moment you arrive. Getting in and out of the park is remarkably easy, with clear signage and efficient security checks that keep lines moving smoothly. Once inside, navigating the wide, open concourses to find your seats is a breeze, even for first-time visitors. The design of the park ensures that almost every seat offers fantastic views of the action, whether you're behind home plate or in the outfield. It's a truly fan-friendly environment that makes attending a game a stress-free and enjoyable outing. But what truly elevates Comerica Park is its culinary scene. Forget typical ballpark fare; here, the concessions are a gourmet delight! You'll find an impressive array of options, from local Detroit favorites like National Coney Island and Slows Bar BQ, offering delicious sandwiches and mac & cheese, to fresh Smashburgers and a variety of Mediterranean selections. The craft beer selection is equally impressive, featuring a fantastic range of local Michigan brews alongside popular national brands. Whether you're craving a classic hot dog or a more elevated dining experience, Comerica Park has something to satisfy every palate, making it a true foodie destination within the world of baseball stadiums.

Today we were at Greenfield village for the Halloween evening dinner, train ride etc. So todays dinner was cancelled dur to a poweroutage. Some construction crews cut their power supply and it did not come back on until 4 pm. We were really excited to tey the dinner and was sad it was cancelled however we were told they were already working on refunds for the dinner portion of the ticket. We did the train ride and that was fun. The halloween decoration were a bit cheesy and they no longer give out candy. I guess they stopped doing this during covid. They really need to bring it back. They did have several food and drink trucks and sold alcohol; beer and wine. I did not see any liquor. The whole event was relatively expensive but thete were very few activities overall. However there was a large area that was more like a flea market where you could buy alll kinds of things. I kind of felt that i paid to goto a flea market and that the rest was just decorations. If you go, i would definitely go when dark - after 715 pm. Please bring back the trick or treating....

I've been coming here since I was a child. The whole village experience has been greatly enhanced with costumed guides, more rides (love the Model T rides), food choices and seasonal experiences. There are so many fun things to do in every season- something for everyone. So thrilled with Ford 's vision to preserve history so we can continue to learn from it and enjoy for decades to come.

This is definitely one of the best outdoor museums in the country. Lots of historic buildings, cars, trains and things to do. You can check out Thomas Edison's Menlo park, blacksmith demonstrations, other historic demonstrations, but by far the best thing to do is to ride the historic steam engine powered train and also the original model t cars. You really do feel like you are in the early 1900s and riding in a real historic 1914 Ford Model T is awesome. It's about a 10-minute ride and the driver explains the history and you really feel like you are in 1920. Everything is period correct including the cars, the buildings, the street lights, and even the yellow stop signs before they were required to be red. You can easily spend hours checking out all of the buildings, photographing the old cars and trains and still not see everything in one day.

I went during Hallowe’en nights and had the time of my life! There were story tellers, shops, costumes, pumpkins in TREES!! They offered a shuttle service before and after which was great for my grandpa. Paid the extra $5 each for a super cringey train ride ANDS I FREAKING LOVED IT! perfect amount of laughter for the price. It was gaudy, out of pocket, and the perfect way to end a spooky night. One negative thing is that there is A LOT of walking. We’ll rent a scooter for my grandpa next year.

Greenfield Village is like my Disney World. We are members so we support an amazing place and have a safe, fun, educational place to take our grandkids and friends. I would urge anyone to visit at least once and make sure you ride in a Model T, have frozen custard, ride the over 100 year old carousel and see where Henry Ford was born and Thomas Edison invented the lightbulb.

Greenfield Village is a nice step back in time thanks to Henry Ford and his vision to preserve history. The Hallowe’en and Holiday Nights events are wonderful. Great family friendly place to spend some time.

We visited on a Tuesday morning with minimal crowds. (mostly a few moms/strollers and a couple of small school groups) There was no waiting to ride the train, T-Model car or horse carriage rides. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable and eager to share the history of the buildings and artifacts. The bathrooms were clean. Some of the food vendors were closed for the season as we visited in September. The highlight of our day was eating lunch in a candle lite inn with recipes from 1850. My husband had a whisky cocktail, bacon wrapped pork with new potatoes and peach pie. I had lemonade, tomato soup and blueberry pie. Both meals included pickles, breads, butter and blackberry jam all served in pottery. We loved the experience!

The Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation, located in Dearborn, Michigan, is a captivating tribute to the ingenuity and creativity that shaped America. Spanning a vast collection of artifacts, the museum showcases pivotal moments in American history—from the industrial revolution to modern technological breakthroughs. Visitors can explore iconic inventions like the first Ford automobiles, Thomas Edison’s light bulbs, and the Rosa Parks bus, each telling a story of innovation, perseverance, and societal change. What makes the museum truly exceptional is its immersive, interactive exhibits. Guests can experience hands-on demonstrations, explore recreated historical settings, and engage with cutting-edge displays that make history come alive. The museum’s layout encourages curiosity and discovery, appealing to both adults and children. Educational programs, workshops, and special events further enhance the experience, making it a hub for learning as well as entertainment. The museum also features a well-curated collection of machinery, transportation, and technological artifacts, highlighting how innovation has transformed everyday life. Cafes and gift shops offer convenient stops for refreshment and souvenirs, while the staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to enhance your visit. Whether you are a history buff, a technology enthusiast, or simply looking for a family-friendly outing, the Henry Ford Museum offers a compelling and inspiring glimpse into the American spirit of innovation. It’s an unforgettable experience that educates, entertains,

It's been a long time since I been there. Was a wonderful experience. The staff was friendly and helpful. There is a lot to take in. Not so many hands on stuff for kids tho. If you have a hard standing or walking a long time there are benches everywhere. Everything is very detailed and descriptive. I would go back in the futer. If you are considering this for a family trip or if you are coming in from out of state I highly recommend coming here and checking out it. Also if you want something like a novilty they have machines that make wax molds of cars etc.

A must-visit when you’re in Michigan! 🙌 This place showcases the incredible evolution of American innovation — from transportation to everyday design. 🚗🚂✨ You’ll find everything from cars, buses, and heavy machinery to beautifully crafted household objects that make you stop and say wow. A true journey through modern ingenuity and creativity!

I could have spent five or six hours here. There is so much going on from presidential cars to race cars, the bus Rosa Parks was on to the chair Lincoln was shot in. This is truly a museum of innovation, not just about Ford. If we would have had time I would have spent the time to go to the Ford Rouge plant that assembles Ford F-150s. That takes about two hours. Nearby you have the race car hall of fame. Outside of having a ton of information its just a very elegant building. Its classy enough to be an art museum and some of these pieces are definitely that. Its a must stop in Detroit.

We went to the Henry Ford Museum on my birthday and it was a great experience. Going in, I thought my wife would be bored from it, but she absolutely loved it. There were items from different eras of Americana. We decided on doing the indoor museum upon the threat of rain. I was thinking we'd other be there for a couple hours at most, as we don't dive deep into reading everything, but we literally left at closing. There was JFK's car, trains, old machinery, furniture, Abraham Lincoln's chair, and the actual bus that Rosa Parks sat on. Sitting in her seat, I reflected on how she must have felt. We learned so much. We also ate at the diner that was near the entrance. It was very affordable. I've been here 20 yesrs ago with my father and so much has changed and added. We can't wait to come back for the outdoor museum.

We absolutely love this place! There is something for everyone. They have the museum located indoors that has many great exhibits. Lots of hands on activities for kids. There’s also special events that come to the museum. In addition to the museum there’s the outside village (does require additional ticket) that you can walk around. I highly recommend getting a ride pass so you can ride all of the rides (train, carousel, model T) without worrying to buy additional tickets! Custard is a must!!

This is a must to visit museum. So much historic items. Plan to be here all day. There are clean restrooms, restaurants to eat at and easy to walk around. Fun Fun Fun. You will enjoy every turn you make. Henry Ford did things awesome when.it comes to preserving historic items.

Our trip to Pelee Island from the mainland was a positive experience; we arrived early, and thanks to the staff’s understanding, my elderly mother was able to receive a seat, which made the journey comfortable and manageable. We were pleased with the level of accommodation provided initially, especially considering her age and mobility needs. However, our return trip was extremely disappointing and far below expectations. After a long day, we were exhausted, and my mother was seated comfortably when we boarded. Unfortunately, the experience on the return was quite distressing. The seating area was overcrowded, and no assistance or reserved seats were available for passengers with disabilities or older individuals. I had to personally request help, and although a staff member mentioned it would be rude to ask a family for their seat, he did try to find a solution. Luckily, another family kindly offered a seat for my mother, but the lack of organization and consideration was evident. Additionally, there was no prioritization for vehicles with accessibility needs during boarding, nor were there reserved seats clearly designated for seniors or passengers with disabilities. This oversight created unnecessary discomfort and stress for my mother and us as a family. In conclusion, while our initial experience was satisfactory, the return trip highlighted significant gaps in service and accessibility support. If the ferry cannot adequately accommodate passengers with mobility challenges, it would be helpful and transparent to clearly communicate this on your website. I sincerely hope the company considers implementing policies that better support and prioritize passengers with disabilities or mobility issues in the future.

The ferry trip was pleasant and we were able to bring our pup on board without any issues (top deck outdoors only). The staff on the vehicle deck were very helpful while guiding us when boarding and disembarking with our bicycles and they were chatting with us and having a great time. I forgot my keys at the tavern across the road and they let me take my bike off and retrieve my keys and reboard within a few minutes with no issues and I am very grateful. Had a lovely time visiting the island through the ferry service and very grateful for the staff on board.

Simple website to book. Super fair prices. $15 each adult round-trip, $3 extra for a bike, and a bit more to bring a vehicle. You'll be paying substantially more to even just rent a bike on the island itself. They're very clear on instructions and the ride itself is beautiful and relaxing. There's coffee and snacks at the back of the boat in the middle deck. Low prices there as well I believe we only paid $1.25 for a nice sized medium coffee. Free parking available at the first lot if you show up early enough. Paid parking right in front of the municipal building. There's even a fenced in area for pets on the middle deck to keep them comfortable as well. Loved it will be back !

Good service! Quite enough indoor as well as outdoor seats to make the 1hr30 mins trips worth it. Cafeteria has quite limited options but good washrooms and drinking water fountain. The cruise is clean and staffs are helpful.

Easy to book, pleasant staff, great views anywhere on deck. It was a little frustrating as those who practice open defecation had their bare feet on seats.

Just what I expected - a small quaint ferry. Just a cafe on the small one but the coffee was good and the ride just lovely. Do not take your car because you do not need it and it is scary to watch the cars loaded. Either bring your bike or do what we did and rented some great bikes on the island.

Worst cx service experience when called their help desk. I mean, simple don't pick the phone if you just have to tell the cx ro clear their cache and go online. Whats the point. Secondly, I understand since I have been working in cx service for past 8 years, I know its hard to work first thing in the morning. And most of the people call first thing. You staff members should be trained to do that and to be polite to the cx. Or just add more staff.

Absolutely exceptional service! Amazing wine and incredible tour. However the highlight was Dianna she was hilarious and engaging her tour was phenomenal. Highly reccomend the Exclusive tasting package.

We had a great time here! All of the wine we tasted was really good 😊 The customer service was fabulous and everyone really went above and beyond to make us, and our pup comfortable and feel welcomed.. Special shout out to Dianna who served us. Thank you making our anniversary that much more special!

We visited on a quiet Sunday afternoon and found a delightful corner with wonderful, friendly staff. We chose 2 separate flights of wine to sample and added a nice charcuterie board. Our favorites were the late autumn Riesling and late autumn Gewurztraminer - only available in the store here! Now we must come back!

Beautiful winery! The staff were polite and friendly. We did the wine tasting and staff did a great job in explaining the different kinds of wine they have, what to expect etc. My favourite was their in-house ice wine. They also had live music when we visited.

Great variety of wonderful red, white, rosé and various sparkling wines in lovely bottles. A flavourful taste for every occasion. A lot of care and quality goes into each batch and bottle. Very kind and personable customer service. I have ordered from Pelee Island Winery multiple times now and will continue to do so! I am very glad to have found this fantastic Canadian company! I just wish I lived in Ontario (again) to go for the beautiful winery tour, but am happy I can at least order online. They also offer a nice promotional treat for your birthday. Sign up and place your order, you will not be disappointed.

Beautiful grounds and building. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Great selection and great wines overall. Tasting bar available to make your choice but now it costs money and you get that back on a purchase if you make one. Tours are available and they have a wedding/event area. Unfortunately things have changed though. There used to be discount when you purchased a case of wine which is why we always came there to support them over the LCBO but now the prices are the same and no discount.

Such a cute winery! Pricing is very reasonable! We went in October and they had a dome set up outside that was a cool way to enjoy the fall weather without being too cold!! Service was great and overall very fun! Will definitely be back!

Our wine club (Ontario Wine Society) met tonight at Copper's Hawk Vineyard. This venue is worth the drive to the southern region of Essex County, between Harrow and Kingsville. Their selection of wines is very good, and they also offer a full menu of foods with fresh ingredients to suit anyone’s tastes. On this occasion, we were greeted with a crisp, bubbly reception wine (2022 North Block Sparkling). The five subsequent wines were all paired with the most delicious plates. I liked all the Cooper’s Hawk wines and their price point, so I was happy to buy a couple of bottles before leaving. I especially recommend the Barrel Fermented Chardonnay and the Cabernet Sauvignon. The chefs (Nick and Jordan) prepared special dishes for our wine pairings, and they also offered vegetarian and pescatarian alternatives. The servers were very efficient and friendly, and the hostess shared some insightful commentary on the wines. We are looking forward to our next visit to eat a meal and drink more wine. The lunch and dinner menu is extensive. Depending on the season, it would be advisable to secure a reservation in advance. Of course, there is an abundance of free parking.

We were driving along the North Shore roads and happened along Cooper's Hawk and a great lunch, topped off by a great Key Lime pie for dessert. Naturally, we had to sample some of the delicious wines. Well worth a visit!

Coopers Hawk is SUCH a delight! They have dining and flights and a wonderful shop and perfect outdoor seating in a spacious farmhouse atmosphere. This is our second trip and it looks like these Floridians will be making a yearly trek to the grape North!

Located 40min south of Windsor Cooper's Hawk is a lovely vineyard and restaurant. The venue is split into two parts, one dedicated to wine tasting and the other for dining at their on-site restaurant, both complete with indoor and outdoor seating. Prior to our dinner reservations, we did some tasting before moving into the restaurant. My favorite wines: Heritage and Meritage (reds). For food, we got to try their Brussel sprouts and cheesy rice balls for starters. As for mains, I opted for their half chicken served with frites. Overall, the experience and service was phenomenal, worth the visit!

Had a great lunch at The Vines - Cooper's Hawk. The weather was beautiful and the food was delicious, some of our favourites that we tried were the Arancini, Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich, and the Lake Erie Pickerel. We had a group of 8 and enjoyed quick and friendly service from several staff, will definitely return :)

This place is SO good. We vacation in the Leamington area every year and first tried this place last fall and loved it. We went again last month and were just as impressed. All their dishes are delicious and the service is always great. My only complaint is that the special I had (cod with some sort of bean soup) was only a special and not part of the regular menu. It was incredible. Also, the corn fettuccini was one of the best dishes we've ever had anywhere and it is a shame it isn't an option for lunch. This place is incredible! Will be back again in September!

Went for a wine tour for a friends birthday party. The ladies at the tasting bar we fabulous with great enthusiasm. Would happily come to THIS PORTION again. We went to the restaurant to ask for French fries to go and they said we had to be sat at the restaurant to eat because they are separated from the winery part . We happily obliged and went to sit in. Asked for 2 order of fries and had the waitress roll her eyes, sigh and put on a fake rude act because we didn’t want to order a glass of wine with the fries. (It was our second stop so I was taking a break from a glass). Overall ruined the experience of a beautiful winery experience.

Great place to watch the sunset, parking available, beautiful view of the river and the island. There is information and historical information everywhere that helps you understand the importance of this place and how relevant it is for the history of Ontario. Be aware that in winter it is very very cold.

The Amherstburg Navy Yard National Historic Site is an absolute gem along the scenic Detroit River. Once home to a British Royal Navy dockyard established in 1796, this site now serves as a peaceful, beautifully landscaped public park that offers both natural beauty and rich history. Walking through the grounds, you're surrounded by lush gardens, well-kept flowerbeds, historic cannons, and monuments that tell the story of the War of 1812. Interpretive plaques and preserved buildings like the Commissariat and Gordon House help bring the past to life, especially during reenactment events. The park is clean, family-friendly, and fully accessible, with benches, shaded paths, picnic areas, public restrooms, and bike racks. It’s a perfect spot for a riverside stroll, catching a sunset, or simply enjoying a quiet moment with a coffee or ice cream from one of the nearby downtown shops. Parking can be limited, especially on weekends, as there’s no dedicated lot, but free street parking is available nearby with a 2-hour limit. Whether you're a history enthusiast or just looking for a relaxing place to unwind, the Navy Yard offers something for everyone. It’s one of those rare places where nature, history, and community come together in the best way. Highly recommend a visit if you're in the Amherstburg or Windsor area!

The park is bustling with visitors in the evenings and on weekends and holidays. It's can be a beautiful and peaceful spot to watch the ships or sit and read. The River Lights get more entertaining each year, and they are drawing increasing numbers of visitors to town. It's proximity to local restaurants and small businesses makes it ideal for a stroll. This is a great place to walk and run, especially with dogs!

It is such a beautiful place. It is such a wonderful place to speak. I envy the people of Canada.

Lovely flowers, neat and beautiful park

A pleasant place to walk down to the river front, watch everything going up & down. Grab a bite to eat before heading down, lots of small places to grab something from.

Beautiful shoreline park. Whoever is maintaining the flowers there is doing an amazing amazing job. I absolutely love walking through the flower pathway multiple times a day. It is also a great fishing spot but the fishing space is too limited.

Matthaei Botanical Gardens is an absolutely beautiful and magical place, especially if you're into photography. My daughter and I spent 5 hours there (inside and outside) and it felt like no time at all. There is so much to marvel at from familiar native plants to tropical fruit trees to 75+ year-old bonsai trees, hummingbirds, frogs, bees, more flowers than you can count, and the occasional chipmunk. 😁 You can stroll through the building, walk the trails, or just sit on a bench in the flower garden and enjoy the scenery. This place is nothing short of spectacular.

I recently visited Matthaei Botanical Gardens and had a wonderful experience. The conservatory is impressive, with separate sections for tropical, desert, and temperate plants. It feels like stepping into different climates all in one place. The outdoor gardens and trails are peaceful and very well maintained. The children’s garden and prairie area are especially nice for a calm walk or quiet time with family. Parking is convenient, and admission is free, which makes it an easy spot to visit anytime. Overall, this is one of the best places in Ann Arbor to enjoy nature, take a relaxing walk, and explore a wide variety of plants. Highly recommended.

WOW what a beautiful experience!!!!! This place is absolutely magical the bonsai garden is stunning one of them is over 1,000 years old you absolutely must see if you are a bonsai lover !!!!! I went with my fiancé and we both thought it was really cool there were people on site trimming all the bonsai answering any questions we had about our own plants loved that 😗 the gardens themselves extremely wonderful 😍😍😍very well organized each plant labeled which I really enjoyed !! It’s such a peaceful place even with others there you don’t even know it !!☮️they have over 3 miles of trails as well so you know we had to go see that it’s connected to the parking lot of the gardens so it’s very convenient 💖 we didn’t walk deep into the trails because it was very hot out but what we did get to explore let us know want to come back !!! The view of the pond in my photos is one of the pictures from the trails !! If you are looking for something free*** and beautiful to do I suggest putting this place on your list !!!

Absolutely gorgeous botanical gardens. Indoor green houses with tropical and desert spaces with water features. Outdoors has plenty of peaceful walking trails, children's play area, picnic areas, and gorgeous curated and wildflower gardens. We highly recommend visiting here when you are in Ann Arbor!

Matthaei Botanical Gardens is one of my favorite places to visit, no matter what time of year. It is awfully nice during good weather to be able to enjoy the outside trails and gardens as well. It's one of my favorite places to go to escape just for the afternoon.

Great place for some nice nature walks on well marked trails. The wait was to pay for parking as they only have 2 machines...my advice to keep things moving if there's a line is to just pay the max of $6 rather than to try paying for a few hours. Everything else is free to enjoy so $6 for a carload is a pretty good deal!

Totally worth visiting for the day. The only cost is parking. Nature walks and other sections of the gardens are beautiful to see, and it's nice to be in nature. I would recommend checking it out, especially the bonsai tree section!

The location is 10/10 Beautiful lake views and a gorgeous large building and patio. The server we had was kind and helpful but overwhelmed by doing cash and bar service all at the same time, by herself. It was busy. She kept her smile and did a great job managing it all. This is why we are giving two stars! One for her and one for location. Wine: We tasted 6 of the wines and unfortunately did not like any. We were surprised to get our flight of wine and not receive any tasting notes on the wines from anyone. It is more of a sampling than a tasting. Ambience: The patio picnic tables are plastic. From an experience perspective the tables bring the ambience way down. The ordering system (barcodes, pagers) and beer garden style seating made this experience lacklustre. It almost felt like we were at a provincial park seating area. We did not feel like a guest and we left without finishing the wine.

My friends and I visited this winery while staying in the area at a cottage. We were very excited for the charcuterie box but it was beyond disappointing. The cheese and meats were your basic from the grocery store (mozzarella and cheddar cubed). Seasonal fruits and veggies were apples, oranges, and grapes. Nothing local or seasonal about them. Some sliced pear or something to complement a better cheese would be an improvement. The quality wasn’t there for a $30 box. Two people in our party got the pizza. They were lukewarm at best. Another person in our party had a hair cooked into her flatbread. The service wasn’t great. The lady who served my flight didn’t suggest any wines or explain anything about them. The grounds seemed unkept. This could have been a beautiful experience to match the stunning views of Lake Erie, but it only disappointed. My advice is to skip this winery and try any other in the area.

I was excited to visit this winery and was hoping the reviews were wrong… but unfortunately the bad reviews are accurate. Upon entering the store, you’re advised that you have to pick your wine and food and pay for it right away (no issue there and there was no tip option so that was a hint). We picked our wines for tasting which were served in small plastic cups and a plastic holder which looked very cheap. We took them outside and headed to the seating area which was a mismatch of furniture; nice patio sets mixed with plastic picnic tables and plastic tables and chairs. Additionally, no one seems to clean the place, the covered seating area could be so much nicer if someone just used a pressure washer to wash off all the bird poop, cobwebs, dust etc. We received our food quickly but with no plates or cutlery… turns out it’s self serve and we located napkins and cups for water nearby. Though the staff were super friendly, they also don’t seem to care.. maybe because they don’t receive any tips, but nothing was being cleaned up from the patio so plastic cups were flying around from guests who didn’t clean up their table as they left. Needles to say, we were very disappointed as this place has so much potential and a little love would go so far but I cannot recommend going here.. down the road are better wineries!

It's a very busy place, so plan your visit accordingly on weekends. The property is large and flows right down to the lakeshore so it has great views to the south. The "restaurant" is actually in the centre of the facility under the roof but open-aired. The food is served take-away to eat at the tables in that central area. You must go inside the facility to obtain your wine flights and then return outside - an awkward arrangement.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I wish the ambience, staff, and wine would’ve matched the stunning views. Waited outside to be served, nobody came! Served us in plastic cups, horrible aged wine. Would not recommend in any circumstance.

Nice facilities and great views. Music on Sunday of this week was also good. That’s the extent of the good part. Food was absolutely atrocious and virtually inedible. The schnitzel sandwich went in the garbage after one bite. Poutine was fries with canned gravy and 4-5 cheese curds. Add in wine from a “tap” for $8-9, disgusting for a winery, they truly should be ashamed.

Super friendly staff, amazing views, good wine, but DO NOT eat. We ordered at 1 and it's 3 PM and we still don't have our food. We did get free drink tickets, but understaffed for sure on food. Have some wine, enjoy the views, and head out.

Great interactive museum for young and preteen children - great visuals with the exhibits and a good variety of topics. Visited on a Friday afternoon over spring break with a 5 & 7 year old. When you enter to the left is the welcome counter with a small gift shop and on the right lockers/coatracks and restrooms. 1st floor near the back is a vending machine and small eating area. Loved the musical steps, the water room on the 1st floor and displays of discovered firehouse items. Lots of activity on the 1st and 2nd floors with the 3rd floor only having a small room focused in light, and 4th floor 2 smaller spaces with a few displays. Very cool overall and would recommend.

I’ve visited the Hands-On Museum in Ann Arbor a couple of times, and each visit has been a fantastic experience! It’s the perfect spot to bring your kids for a fun-filled day of learning through play. The exhibits are interactive, educational, and designed to spark curiosity in science and technology. The environment is welcoming, clean, and family-friendly, with something new to explore around every corner. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, the Hands-On Museum offers an engaging way for children (and adults!) to learn through hands-on discovery. Highly recommend for a weekend outing or school break adventure!

We love this place. Our grandchildren have a year long pass. Definitely come here with your children or grandchildren.

Visted here with the family during the week. Lots of learning experiences with interactive excercises. Kids loved running around trying everything out. Clean and organized for a place that children have their hands on everything. Little shop at the entrance. Vending machines with small sitting area availiable. Staff were super friendly. Will return.

Overall, this is a wonderful spot for families — everything was functioning well, and the hands-on exhibits came with quick, easy-to-follow instructions that even young kids could enjoy. The staff was friendly, and the entire area was clean and well-maintained. I did take one star off because we specifically came for the Gabby’s Dollhouse experience, expecting a fully decorated STEAM-themed room, but it turned out to be just a single table for making cat ears. That said, it’s still a fantastic place for families with toddlers to around age 8. Kids can explore and learn how the world works — from sound waves and electricity to gears and pulleys. It’s a fun, educational outing for the whole family.

Great time, I would like a little more reading panels with some vocabulary words, but it was a great time for my kids 1-14. I and several other adults were also interacting with the exhibits. There are plenty of places to fiĺl water and bathrooms near all the fun stuff. Bring shoes to get wet and a snack as you'll be here a while because of how great the place is.

Friendly people. Very interactive and open to all ages. Even the adults can have fun learning about the mechanics of the world we live in. Kids probably could have spent the whole day at the water play station

I'm an alum. The education I received here 10 years ago as an engineer was less than stellar, but this institution has gone even more downhill since then. It's not a university anymore. It's a business. Capitulating to the Trump administration and getting rid of all its DEI initiatives is the final straw. They'll never get a penny from me again. They've completely forgotten that they're supposed to be champions of learning, and a beacon of free speech.

Overhyped school. Sometimes teaching is good, other times it's not. Overwhelming size of the school also makes it really difficult to get to know others and you will likely never get to know any of your professors. Although there are a lot of nice people here too, there are also a good number of people who are rude who will try to act as though they are better than you. Fans can be annoying at times as well. This school isn't exactly a beacon of progress either as they have recently rolled back all their DEI initiatives. Lack of windows in so many of the classrooms will also certainly leave you feeling "blue" (maybe that's what's really meant by "go blue").

The University of Michigan boasts one of the most stunning campuses in the world, offering not only breathtaking surroundings but also a vibrant, supportive community. I couldn't have asked for a better place to call home—both academically and personally. The student vibes and sense of camaraderie made the experience truly unforgettable.

Just finished my PhD here. The greatest public university on the planet earth...)

Trying to get an appointment with your doctor is now even a longer process. When I call I need to be evaluated by a nurse before I can make an appointment. You are placed on hold for 3-6 minutes. I usually go to urgent care when sick because it is much easier than trying to get an appt at u of m. I need to look elsewhere for medical care. It’s really a shame because I really like my doctor, but impossible to get in. If I send medical email question, you are charged. Completely out of control. It’s not a pleasant experience.

Great university campus, happy students, friendly and ethnically-diverse atmosphere every time I've visited. Weighted against about ten comparable universities I've spent time around, this is in the top 3. Ann Arbor is a really nice place. :)

The best of college football. Had the priveledge of being almond vendor there with an old friend a few yrs back.

My buddy and I headed to the Big House on August 30, 2025, for Michigan’s season opener against New Mexico, and it was a blast! The stadium was electric with over 110,000 fans rocking maize and blue, roaring from kickoff to the final whistle. We soaked in the buzz of the night game, watching freshman QB Bryce Underwood sling his first touchdown and Justice Haynes tear it up with three scores. The Wolverines dominated, 34-17, but New Mexico’s trick plays kept us on our toes. Tailgating at the golf course beforehand, swapping stories, and cheering with the crowd made it an unforgettable day at the largest stadium in the country!

Visited "The Big House" for the Zach Bryan concert while it was at max. capacity!! I was surprised there were no long lines for food & drinks because concession wraps around the entire stadium. Also, that goes for the bathroom facilities. It should make you feel safe there was plenty of S.W.A.T & Police everywhere from the stadium to all the intersections.

Michigan's Football Michigan Stadium aka the Big House is an impressive stadium for the 110,000 fans that can fit into the stadium. The Food/Beverage areas, Bathrooms, and other amenities are in the outside walkways that offer all the amenities for the massive crowd. Out the top three biggest stadiums in the Big 10, it's the quietest home crowd, but it's great for watching the game action!

I mean, it's the Big House. Who doesn't love watching their favorite college team with 110k+ of your best friends. The atmosphere is amazing, the people are kind, they sell high noon (and let libations). The food choices are plentiful but it is a LARGE stadium. So be prepared to walk. Cashless venue, as are almost all of them these days. Buy a ticket, get there early, talk to people, and have a great time!

Hands down the biggest facility I have ever been to. Parking was pretty simple and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Seating was pretty easy to navigate as well as concessions. Was there for the largest ticketed music event in history ( Zac Brian with John Mayer). It was amazing.

Beautiful stadium and super nice staff. We were with the visiting team (Fire Up Chips🔥) and everyone was very welcoming to us!

First time there it was really nice and a lot bigger than expected, I wemt there to watch my grand son play football had a blast!

We had a great morning on the lake (6/24) with captain Al. We brought our children and 3/5 of us were new to walleye fishing. He was knowledgeable and personable. He did a wonderful job teaching our children with kindness and patience. We limited out, even with all the newbies. I would recommend captain Al to anyone!

My grandson and I went out on 7-16-25 with Capt. Ron with Sea Breeze Charters. Our first Lake Erie experience fishing for walleye. He’s very knowledgeable with several years of experience. He put us on fish and limited out before 11am. Very friendly and laid back. I highly recommend Capt. Ron and I’ll be requesting to go out with him again in the future. Thanks Capt. Ron. We had a great time!

Captain Mike R was great! We got our limit the first day, and just one shy of our limit the 2nd day due to some crazy wind. Our boat had trouble, but sea breeze was right out there immediately with another boat for us. Seriously can’t complain about that! If you are looking for a good charter I recommend Sea Breeze.

Always have a good experience with Sea Breeze. Our group has booked with these guys for the past several years and have had good success with catching walleye. For 2025 Mike and Mike were our captains and they did a great job. You can tell quickly that they have a passion for what they do. The Sea Breeze captains work hard to ensure you are catching fish and most importantly have a good time. Highly recommend them. See ya next year!

Had a wonderful time with captain Tom… he did a really good job at making sure we stayed on fish, and making sure we were catching fish! I will book again! Thanks Tom! We all had a wonderful time and one 14 year boy said it was the best time of his life!!

Kevin was our captain today and he was fabulous ! So accommodating to all our needs. He was awesome with our 6 year old we had on the boat . She loved all the little things he let her do . She caught all kinds of fish . I would highly recommend going with him . We caught all kinds of fish ! He takes care of everything you need. So very attentive !

Went out with Kevin today and he got us on the fish immediately. He showed us how to set up the first rod and asked us if we could handle it from there. Once we said we could handle it he let us do it ourselves. He was an enjoyable person and made it a fun trip. We caught our 6 man limit in the morning.

Came here in late May to catch the end of migration and it was incredible! There were so many birds and so close to you, it felt surreal. Wish we would have had more time to explore. I also loved stopping in the visitor’s center and checking out the exhibits.

Magee Marsh and the boardwalk are absolutely tremendous area for birdwatching. Plenty of parking and the boardwalk is excellent. I was fortunate to visit a few days prior to the start of the Biggest Week in American Birding and saw numerous warblers as well as other species. Look forward to returning in future years.

It was like a dream. Saw so many warblers and other gorgeous birds!! (Visit date, 5/16) My favorite part was seeing a pair of trumpet swans for the first time! Even saw a few turtles. The woodies roost trail has quite a few snakes so be careful!😬

Magee Marsh is FANTASTIC!! If you're into birding, nature, the beach and water, this place is for you! The nice cool breeze from the lake always feels wonderful and the sounds of all the birds and the boardwalk is a very fun and relaxing experience. Also exciting, because you never know what kind of bird or wildlife you might see!

Magee is not only for birders, it’s a great place to walk and enjoy nature. The board walks are well maintained and easy to navigate. During May the Marsh is known as the "The Warbler Capital of the World" during the bird spring migration. It’s awesome to see how far birders will travel to get here.

We went early (April 30) and the weather was cool. We only saw a few warblers this year. But we really enjoyed the eagles!

It was a little difficult to find your way around at first, but we got a map at the visitor center that was handy. Overall and incredible place to bird. Probably even better in spring. Got my lifer yellow-billed cuckoo here!

We visited on a Sunday morning in mid-April 2025. There is a large parking lot with EV charging stations. There were a couple of other cars with us in the parking lot but it was pretty deserted. We had booked a shuttle tour but it was cancelled a few days before our visit. We were sad but when we talked to the staff inside we found out that she was the one who cancelled the trip because she had sent all her volunteers on a "field trip" (training) so she was the only one there and couldn't also coordinate the shuttle tour. So while we were still disappointed we weren't as upset because it was for a good reason. The visitor center is bigger than we expected. Half of it is like meeting rooms and offices and the other half is exhibits. There are bathrooms inside the visitor center but also a standalone building outside next to the parking lot incase the visitor center is closed. The exhibits were nice but it seemed like many were not currently working. We weren't sure if they were just not turned on but we also didn't ask. There was one aquarium with a large sunfish just inside the main doors. There was a small theater that you can watch a short film on. There is also a nice upstairs second floor but it was mostly just a balcony looking down or looking out the windows. There was a 3rd floor with a observation deck but it was closed when we visited. We also didn't ask why. They had binoculars you could borrow as well. There is a small gift shop with the typical merch you would expect. The thing that really got our attention was their custom bottled soda. Apparently a manufacturer down the street made it for them and they are hilarious. See photo in my review. We bought most the flavors. Mostly just to keep the glass bottles as a souvenir. They also had the National Wildlife Refuge Blue Goose Passport Cancellation Stamps at the front desk. We walked the short boardwalk trail right behind the visitor center. I think we were still too early in the season to see anything super cool. But they did have a electronic motorized wheelchair with tracks! Never seen anything like it and must be for folks in wheel chairs to go off-roading. We would definitely visit again, probably in a different season. Mid-April was probably too early. Don't forget to visit Magee Marsh Wildlife Area just a little down the road as well. You won't be disappointed.

We needed more time to truly enjoy everything this refuge has to offer. It is a beautiful facility with three floors. The third floor has a walk out where you can use their binoculars. Free!

Bring your camera and long lens. Ottawa is full of diverse wildlife. You never know what is around the next turn. It is a drive-thru experience so take your time so you can see everything.

We went on a Friday and drive through wasn't open and it was about to storm so didn't stay long but will definitely be back to check it out more.seems very nice.

Absolutely a Beautiful National Wildlife Refuge is your interested in a lot of different bird species. In April, Eagles were everywhere, I actually got to see them do their mating ritual. Now the Eaglets are tin & around nest. There's also Owls, was able to see a Great Horned Owl with Owlets!

Absolutely 💯 loved it highly appreciated the free gold cart tour and information facility

All natural nature trails. Known for it's famous birding sights with worldwide fame. Beautiful trees and plants. Marshes and wildlife along Lake Erie. Taking a long walk through here makes one forget about the issues we all face everyday. Nature heals and invigorates the soul. No cost.

A really fun experience! The people who checked us in were so kind also ❤️ thank you! It’s so full of history for kids and adults. Great mini movie. Definitely worth watching. The ship was awesome. I saw a lot of reviews saying it’s hot on it. But I mean of course it would be it’s a ship in the sun! It was so cool though!! My kids loved it and so did I.

Visiting the museum can be an enriching experience, providing valuable insights into different cultures. The carefully curated exhibits showcase various artifacts, offering a glimpse into the past. You can explore the diverse collections at your own pace, allowing for personalized learning. Detailed information panels accompany each display, enhancing your understanding of the objects. Overall, the museum provides an opportunity for education and enjoyment.

Very interesting to see the vast and tragic history of the great lakes so much to see here and learn. The ship was very cool to see and tour and the guides were very knowledgeable and helpful they other cool story's of the area plus it was Halloween and they were dressed as pirates and giving out candy well worth the visit. The tuggs were also interesting. The museum wad full of all the good and bad history of the lakes. Lots of artifacts from the ship wrecks. Im glad i stopped and hzve lots of pictures. Thanks for the cool tour, and keep up the great work and hope to see yall agan. Thanks a whole lot!!!!!

If you want a museum that you can go to from open to close, this is the place. The freighter alone is worth 6 hours alone. The museum is about 3 to 4 hours. There is just so much to see and learn. Being here was worth the trip. The life raft from the Edmund Fitzgerald was really shocking to see as very little had been found when she went down. It's really a nice collection of history of the Great Lakes and learning how important they are to the area.

Shout out to Ellen: Our Edmund Fitzgerald tour guide. Very professional for the theme of the material and very knowledgeable and was able to answer all our questions. All the data that was given, she never forgot the compassionate side of the storie as she stated "let's not forget that we lost 29 people that day." The museum part had some great displays and yes there were noisy kids but kids are noisy. The museum itself was great. Thank you for the 50th anniversary experience of the Fitzgerald

On the last day of our family reunion in Toledo to honor my late father, we discovered the National Museum of the Great Lakes just after lunch nearby. We decided to tour both the Schoonmaker lake barge and then visit the museum next door. After purchasing our tickets, the receptionist advised us to board the Schoonmaker first. I am glad she did since we had only thirty minutes to spare and would have missed out on the barge otherwise. It was our first time on a lake barge and we were impressed by its size, especially knowing it was built in the same era as the Titanic. The scale remains striking even today. Unfortunately, we did not have time to explore the museum itself. We managed a quick stop in the gift shop and also took a few photos by the giant propeller at the entrance. Not seeing the full museum gives us another reason to return on our next visit. We also want to thank the museum for honoring the military with discounted tickets. We greatly appreciated that!

Visited the National Museum of the Great Lakes as part of the 50th anniversary of the Edmund Fitzgerald. We had the tour of the James S. Schoonmaker to start our visit, and our tour guide Tom was tremendous. Fielded many questions and was educated and informed to answer all. Made the tour very digestible and entertaining. Tom was an excellent guide! The museum itself was terrific. Very interactive and wide ranging in its exhibits. We enjoyed our visit greatly and would definitely revisit. Great value, and great for all ages.

Spread out so even with bugs groups it isn’t bad. Parking is a pain. Street parking and 2 hour limit. Have to go out and add more. The outdoor part was closed for renovation. Kids loved the airplane you can drive, water station and hurricane simulator. The bike ride would have been fun but my daughter was a hair too short. They also loved the battle bots you could make .

What a fun and interesting place to take children and to learn as an adult as well. So many wonderful things to see and do. Very interactive. They even have a movie theater inside as well as a snack bar. We saw the movie Wild Ohio that the Ohio Department of Natural Resources had produced to showcase many wonderful places in Ohio.

I had a very interesting and fun experience. It’s a very educational and has different stuff for different ages. The membership is well worth getting. My favorite part was the simulation ride. I’m definitely coming back again.

Passing through Toledo on a road trip we stopped here to break of the ride and we were beyond pleasantly surprised. Parking was a cinch and cost $2 for 2 hours right outside on Main Street and our girls ages loved all the hands on activities. We had to drag them out of there as they didn’t want to leave. Thank you, Imagination Station!

We had an amazing time here! It’s the perfect mix of fun and learning for both kids and adults. The exhibits are hands-on and really engaging.

Grandkids enjoyed this stop. It rained so this was plan B since our outdoor activities were ruined. Several hands on exhibits were not working. The place was very busy. They do offer many activities for a lot of different ages and interest.

We relish the time and stem experience that sparked curiosity in children. Lego and other activities make it even more exciting.

Stopped in rather briefly but we enjoyed what we saw. The staff were very friendly (shoutout to Reggie) and we loved the collection on the East side. We arrived shortly after they opened on Sunday and only a few others were there. Love that the lot and museum were free. Definitely would come back again.

Hello future tourist… I recommend this museum. From start to finish the staff is very welcoming. Is great to take the family, friends, or simply go on a date with your significant other. The atmosphere is very clean and organized. I did enjoy that every so often they have new exhibits to view. They also have an area for special events one can have. That was pretty neat too. Now, across from the museum they have Glass Pavilion . They have neat glass art displays. Also, you could see staff members working on new glass projects. I really enjoyed my experience. I hope you like it as much as I did.

This museum is beautiful & all of the art there is as well. I love how knowledgeable the staff there is, how everything is set up & the fact that they have interactive activities for the whole family, especially the kids. If you like art, like learning about new things, & don't mind walking I would recommend you to go check it out.

Went here solo, for the first time, and thoroughly enjoyed the total experience. Free parking and admission, lovely well rounded collection, beautiful building and grounds with a pleasant and helpful staff. Bonus: had the place mostly to myself. Thanks Toledo!

The museum is beautiful and has a wide variety of art to check out. The staff were super friendly too. One offered to take a photo of our group and another told us a bit of background information about a piece we found interesting. Overall, it was a great experience, and it's awesome that admission is free!

We had a great afternoon looking at all the art. I would like to take my grandson this winter. There is a really nice area for children.

We really enjoyed the glass collection, so many beautiful pieces! Loved the jewelry collection too. Will definitely come again when we're in the area. Really appreciated the free admission and parking too! Very friendly staff.

🌿 Absolutely Worth the Visit We’re from Indiana and had been really looking forward to checking out this botanical garden. It was completely worth the trip. It’s such a beautiful and peaceful place to walk around and enjoy nature. What makes it even better is that it’s not commercialized at all. No entry fee, no pressure to spend money, just a well-kept, relaxing space open to everyone. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

We enjoyed our visit here to stretch our legs and relax on a roadtrip, and let the kids play. The gardens were beautiful and the natural play area was very nice. It's not as huge as others, but it's free and very peaceful!

Wow! What a beautiful park. We stopped in expecting just a small garden and it’s a large and beautiful park full of pretty trees and flowers. It was especially nice to see it in the fall with the fall foliage. Definitely worth the stop.

We love coming here! I try to bring my family a few times a year. The playground is awesome, although with how crowded it can get, it would be nice to have a 2nd play area. Luckily, my kids also love walking around the trails and checking out the beauty all around. There are many places to stop and rest along the trails. This is a place for anyone and everyone of any age. You can choose to end your walk early or continue on to open fields. Great for letting the kids run around. You may notice a special couple of trees nearby, along with all of the gorgeous plants and views. I won't go into too much without giving everything away, this is just one place you'll have to check out. Did I mention that it's completely free to enter?

Was our first time here, and we really enjoyed walking. Breathing fresh air + calm spot. Highly recommended as a relaxing spot, photo session and also important to mention dogs are not allowed.

The Botanical Garden has very nice walking paths (and benches), and had a lot more flowers than we expected for late September. Their Dahlia garden was in full bloom with some spectacular flowers. There are several small gardens to explore, with art installations to enjoy.

Beautiful place to visit the throughout the year, the trees and flowers look different through the seasons. Several art pieces located through the gardens make for wonderful photo opportunities.
