This is an absolute gem with so much to see it could really be multiple different museums…read more You enter the main building from the very spacious parking lot. You can get admission to just the site, add on admission to the Wright's home (offered on certain days for an additional charge) and also add on for the train or carousel rides. Overall, admission is very reasonable at $14 for adults and $10 per child. Worth it considering all that you can see and do at the site. There are a lot of historic buildings you can enter. Most have placards outside describing what their history is. Some of them had costumed interpreters in them and some with animatronics. (which my daughter declared as super creepy). In the main building, there are exhibits about the history of Dayton where you can learn things like that at one point, Dayton had the most patents of anywhere in the US and the cash register was invented here. It was cool learning about the area (even though we aren't from here). I imagine it would be even more impactful if you were local. There is also the Wright Brothers building with a ton of information about the Wright Brothers and more Wright artifacts than any other museum or location. Everything is very well maintained and all of the staff are friendly and just waiting to give you information about whatever area they are in. If you go to Dayton, make sure you visit here!

So, this place is awesome. It's like half railroad park, half Wright-brothers park, half historical…read moremuseum, and half outdoor garden-park. THAT'S FOUR HALVES!!!! I went here as part of a group, and they seem to get a lot of school field trips, but they're well organized, and it's a big place, so even with a ton of kids at the place, you don't feel like you're crowded. They have really great people working here, who are more than happy to answer your questions and explain things to you. I had like, fifteen minutes alone with the candle-maker lady and my son, and she entertained all of his questions and was really cool to talk with. They have a lot of Dayton-related history around NCR, and flight, and nuclear energy, and old automobiles. I bet it's a blast to work there. My favorite part though, was the outdoors area. It's just a really well maintained facility with lots of big old trees, and shade, and you can really just kick back and relax and chill out.

They have a getting ready room for the bridal party where we had hair/makeup and enjoyed quiche and fruit as we were getting ready. Our day of attendant was wonderful - very sweet gal and helped with any wedding day nerves. They have several wedding packages available for you to choose from. The packages vary depending on what type of chairs you would like, what entrees you would like to serve and different types of alcohol. Bill also helped arrange the lighted ceiling swag and gobo projector.

There seem to be many options, depending upon your desired comfort level and desire to spend $$. The only real concern that we have had so far is what happens in the event of inclement weather since there are no covered seats. We were told of an occasion when a show had to be canceled after just a few minutes when storms rolled in. So far this has been a very convenient place to go for a show. No charge for parking; you can park in their lots near the pavilion or we used a nearby high school parking lot. Everyone is friendly and helpful. There are beer and wine sales onsite, with your usual selection plus a few "craft" beers. Overall a very pleasant experience. I imagine that we will see many more shows I the future (we just moved to the area).

It had raspberry liquor, sparkling wine, and peach puree. Cheers!
