    Today was our first, and last time stopping in. We were very excited to see what their wines were…read moreall about and the wine slushy! The drinks were good, the service on the other hand not at all. From the second we walked in the lady was very rude, assuming we had been there before, annoyed with any question that was asked, and quite honestly the attitude on her face said it all. When you are out and about trying to enjoy the day and it gets ruined by how awful customer service is these days.. very sad.

    Woodland Trail Winery is a small Northwoods winery that makes really great wine. I'm not a wine…read moreconnoisseur so I can't tell the difference between fruit grown locally or grapes from overseas, I just know that I really LOVE the flavor of the wine (some were soooo grape flavored it was awesome) and I love the the vast variety they offer. Some of the more popular flavors are available for retail purchase in central and northern Wisconsin at stores like Trig's and several local liquor stores. During our visit we were offered a free wine tasting with an explantation of how the wine was made and some great pairing suggestions. This is a great place to visit & stock up on some unique gift ideas for all occasions. Plan to spend some extra time for tasting!

    Go on this tour and you'll be nothing but AMAZED. The history of what the mine workers experienced…read moreto help this country grow and prosper will leave you speechless. Being in the mine adds a lot to the experience... you're seeing and feeling what the miners felt... except they didn't have the lights like you'll have. I'll also say that our mine tour guide, a student in the Geology program at Michigan Tech. was one of the best tour guides I've ever had for any tour. He is not only passionate and knowledgable about Geology, he knew so much detail about the Quincy mine on really every level, as well as the experiences and way of life of the miners themselves. I was floored by not only all he learned in order to be as knowledgable as he is, but also how much it's clear that he loves everything about the mine and miners... all while being a student with this as only a summer job. I was excited to take this tour. It was much, much more than I anticipated. If you go, bring warm clothing... I was in shorts and a thin long-sleeved shirt with a t-shirt underneath. That was NOT enough. Dress like it's a brisk winter day.

    Such an interesting tour! You get to put on your lighted helmet and walk into the past, deep below…read morethe surface. Hope you read the rest of my review, but first I want to share something that pisses me off! When we go out to eat at a restaurant we tip the waiter for their service... but when I've been in these types of tours I can't believe how many people don't tip! Not even a couple of bucks! The people giving these tours work harder, share more information , and in this case, do it for almost 3 hours. Much longer than the waiter who brings you a cheeseburger... so stop being so cheep... you know who you are! (End of sermon)! Our guide (Cam) was spectacular! She had so many interesting stories and knowledge of a world in a time that is long gone... (thank god!) The days of this type of deep mining by hand or handheld drill are long over with. Not just because it's not profitable, but because it was inhumane! (Well sadly more because it's not profitable ) Many people worked here until they died of lung issues or were deaf from the drills. Be prepared for at least a 2 1/2 hour tour in the depths of a tunnel in a mountain. Don't worry the paths are safe and large enough that it's shouldn't be a problem if you're worried about claustrophobic conditions. It is cold however... it stays around 40 degrees all year. And it is a little muddy so don't wear your good shoes. If you love history, or think seeing a defunct mine would be interesting, I highly recommend this tour. And give your guide a tip for gods sakes!
