The road construction was ridiculous. Again, a majority of the roads I drove on seemed fine to me.

Just driving through Superior, there were multiple full stops in the middle of the highway due to "construction." When the stop was opened up to allow a few cars to pass, I saw no construction in action, so who knows what was really going on. Additionally, the town area did not look inviting at all.

My grandpa lived here when he was a kid for several years in the 1930's/40's and I've been to visit…read moreseveral times in my life. Over the past few years, the town has changed a bit, and I wouldn't be surprised if it continues to add to its unique culture in the next few years as well. It used to feel like it was in the middle of nowhere and really far from Phoenix, but with the expansion of all the cities in between (Gold Canyon, Mesa, Phoenix itself, etc.), it's really a manageable drive out here. There are a lot of cool shops and even bars/restaurants here now and it seems like they are focusing a lot on the art scene which pairs well with the desert. I'm excited to see what happens here in the next decade, I just hope a lot of the history and spirit of the town remains constant. There's a lot of cool history in the town and my grandpa used to go exploring on the mountain to the East, which is what keeps us coming back every few years.

Views are phenomenal and if you can find a safe place to pull over fish creek and nearby areas are wonderful to explore. Make sure you're looking at the weather especially near times of flash flood warnings and more. I'm a bit sad they've paved more of the road recently which makes it so much more susceptible to those who don't care or tsk into account all it's history. We've seen big horn sheep, and so much more. Be cautious when driving and courteous of others as many parts are blind turns and only room for one car around the corners. Well worth it no matter what a stop at Tortilla Flats for an awesome meal with more history.

Mila was an excellent hostess and did a great job explaining the different wines available at the vineyard as well as telling us all about the vineyard and it's many events. My sister and I are very much looking forward to heading up to Young to the Vineyard, one of these days. The wines we tried we're all excellent. We ended up buying several bottles and taking them home with us. The decor is a little sparse and a little "boring". The tables and chairs are all cute, but the walls are all a sparse white and didn't really have the feeling of a wine tasting room at least not any that I've been to. Perhaps warmer colors on the walls would increase the ambience. They did have some nice artwork on the walls. We will definitely be back!

Ok, I'm going to give this place 5 stars because, technically, it is a cool place that not a lot of…read morepeople know about. It's actually a hydroelectric plant along the Arizona Canal. As we approached the building (you can't go in it), the smell hit us and I thought, oh no, I've made a huge mistake. I think I was just there on a bad day or something, because I didn't see many reviews mention the smell at all. What smell? Raw sewage, very sulphur- and trash-like. I mean, it STUNK. It was strongest at the top overlook, right next to the building. As we went down the staircase to the lower level, the smell began to dissipate and eventually, to my nose, disappeared altogether. On the lower level, we saw the waterfalls. You can walk under/behind two of them and there are "seats" made of stone blocks in front of the third. The water was flowing pretty hard the day we visited, so the seats and all the pavement was wet and there was a slight mist coming off the middle one. The overall place is like a mixture of industrial and environmental architechture. There are metal-looking columns holding up the upper deck, yet the waterfalls look like they were copied from Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, and there are large stones/rocks embedded into the walls everywhere. It sits on the edge of a small park with a decent sized lot and there are hiking paths. We only came for the falls, so I can't speak to the hike, but the area looked fairly nice. I'd like to see it at night as it looks pretty cool in pictures I've seen. If you're looking for something a little different to do or show your visitors from out of town, this is a neat place to go. Hopefully, the smell is a one off, but even if not, hold your breath and go down the stairs..... 13/2026

Highly recommended for a unique opportunity to enjoy waterfalls in the valley of the sun and learn about how the innovative Hohokam Indians.

When we were done and looking through the store he would help talk through the different flavors and types of oils they carry/make.

They were very busy as it was the last day for the sangria social and the day before Mother's Day but the outdoor seating is pretty vast and the musician was wonderul to listen to. I would highly recommend for a day date, time with friends or just a fun activity!

They offer a tour and a fun store that you can get olive oil, spreads, chocolate bars and tangential products. You can sample the olive oil but there's nothing to dip it in so you'd just be ingesting pure oil; it would have been nice to have a pretzel or bread to dip! I would have wanted everything to be made there but for example the pastas and pasta sauces weren't. And they sell other products from elsewhere. If I'm making a trip here, I'd want to buy things that are primarily made here. They also have several dining options (not sure how they're all related). I was pleased with the food we ordered: huge artichoke calzone (soft dough and good filling) for $22 and fish and chips (excellent fries), as well as a bakery that sells cupcakes, scones, cakes, cookies, brownies as well as gelato. We liked the cookies and scone though the latter didn't have the usual consistency of a scone). It was interesting that their Italian cookies were actually slightly cheaper purchased at the counter vs the already packaged box. They also sell cerreta individually wrapped candies. They have indoor and outdoor seating if you want to eat there. Employees were very friendly. I'm sure it is a more pleasurable experience going when there aren't a lot of crowds, as it is a tourist spot and has overflow parking.

The bottom floor of the bordello is a gift shop, so we were only on the second floor, which is quite small. The pull the curtains to make the place dark, light a candle, and begin with the ghost accounts of the place. They hand out a couple of ghost hunting told, and take you to the two rooms where ghosts have been reported. It was fun! We also visited the mystery shack, which is a building built in two different angles so it looks like gravity is defied (water running toward, etc ). It was really fun, but kind of disorienting and kind of a workout. I almost feel twice. There are little shops with lots of Arizona-themed items (like paperweights with scorpions in them), cowboy hats and boots, and Western shirts. After going into all the shops, we went to the saloon for dinner. This place is very touristy, but we had a fun afternoon.
