I really wanted to celebrate my 18th there because i knew it would bring back happy memorie. but didn't want it to be weird at my grown age. One day I hope to go back and play in that water table. I would truly do anything to be a kid and play there. I hope I get married there. nothing would bring me more joy.

Wonderful place to play! Took my granddaughter to play when she was in Michigan visiting. It was…read morefun to watch her experience everything. The staff was friendly and helpful. There were a few items that needed some updating and repair like the noses for the eyeglasses, the heart area, and the wooden cars and racetrack. Other than that there was still a wide variety of things for kiddos of all ages to do. Large open areas that promote running around and a huge lazy river, water table to play in. A very inexpensive way to spend a few hours!

My daughter had a blast learning to identify new fruits and veggies and of course taste them. There was so much to see, we definitely have to go back. Another cool feature were the canopy trails.

The price was reasonable and my small group spent a few hours here and felt like we had seen almost everything. At the time of our visit there was a installation of animatronic dinosaurs throughout the gardens which was fun, especially when you heard them roaring from a little ways away- it felt a bit like Jurassic Park.

They've got a great mix of pinball machines, old-school arcade classics, and some newer games, so it doesn't feel like a museum, it actually feels alive. You can bounce between games, grab a drink, and just hang out without it feeling forced. What really surprised me though was the food. I expected typical bar food, but they go way beyond that. The brunch is legit, and the menu has some creative dishes that actually feel thought out, not just thrown together. It's the kind of place where you come for the games and end up staying for the food. The staff are super friendly and bring a fun energy without being over the top. It also strikes a nice balance crowd-wise. During the day, it's totally a spot you could bring your kids and let them have a blast, and later on it shifts into more of a social hangout where you can meet locals and vibe. Overall, it's just a really well done arcade bar that doesn't try too hard but still delivers on everything. Definitely worth checking out.

I approached this small museum with no real expectations. I left pleased and perplexed…read more Some of the labeling could be improved. For example, a small 15th century Italian bust of Saint Veronica of Binasco is not identified as a reliquary. (A reliquary is a container for the purported or actual physical remains of saints, such as bones.) Leaving out that small detail is a big deal. A Jordan Valley Glassworks chandelier titled 'Calypso Reef' owes way too much to the ouevre of Dale Chihuly. It could almost be considered a copy. There are a surprising number of John Rogers 19th century plaster genre sculptures. The kitschy Hummel or Lladro figurines of their day, they were incredibly popular. Most museums put these off in a corner somewhere; here, they have pride of place in very nice hallway gallery. Quibbles aside, this little museum is a very cozy environment to meander about. There are two interesting Corot landscapes, a soothing 8th century Chinese stele of a Buddha, a sculpture of Psyche and Eros has them smack in the middle of an intense kiss and they'll probably be getting a room soon, Nell Witters two etchings of trees are beautifully delicate, and a temporary exhibition of automotive art features some skillfully-executed images. One work made the entire visit worthwhile: Warren Sheppard's 1904 painting titled 'The Trackless Sea.' Simply, ocean waves fill the lower half of the canvas; an orange sky with a small sun in the distance fills the top half. It's stunningly realistic and a photo just doesn't capture how seriously good this painting is. Stare at this every day and it's an instant stress reliever.
