No frills, lots of fun, lots of apples. We came in late September, and the parking lot was crowded,…read morebut the orchards are big enough that it wasn't crowded at all as we were walking around. Lots of the most popular varieties (like honeycrisp) were pretty picked over, but we still found more apples than we wanted to carry, and our kids mostly had fun running in giant loops around the farm. It was sunny and lovely and great to be outside. There's not a lot more to it than that. I gather it's now popular for apple picking orchards to have roller coasters or petting zoos, and I have no idea why. They don't have those things here. They have a tractor that will take you in a circle around the property, and they sell hot, freshly-fried apple cider donuts that are really great -- they tasted more like apple cider than any cider donut I've eaten. By the time we got home, our son was asking when we could go back. We plan to make it a yearly tradition.

Great place to take the kids and grandkids blueberry picking!…read moreIt's been a tradition in our family for many years

When it is blueberry season, go to Billy Boy's. Ample parking. Nice layout. Prices are reasonable…read more I buy blueberries that are already picked :) but I saw a lot of families picking blueberries. Pre-picked berries cost more. They sell hotdogs and hamburgers but I didn't eat there. The blueberries are usually big and sweet. This years bunch is good!

I just got back from the Washington Park Zoo in Michigan City, and it is a total five-star hidden…read moregem tucked right into the lakeside sand dunes. The workout is real with all the steep dune trails, but climbing the limestone tower rewards you with a crazy panoramic view of Lake Michigan. For a smaller zoo, the animal encounters are incredibly close up; I got right near grizzly bears, wolves, a lion, and an awesome lynx that was acting like a giant housecat, bouncing around and playing with branches. It only takes about one hour to explore, completely skips the exhausting crowds and high prices of big city zoos, and sits right across the street from the beach, making it the perfect kickoff for a lake day.

The variety of animals was nice and it's a good size for a quick trip. It took us about 45 minutes…read moreto go through the whole thing. It's accessible, but I would say not easily accessible. They have signage for an accessible route through the zoo but it was blocked and closed in several places. The free wheelchair rental was awesome but the ground was potholey in a lot of places and the grade of the hills made it nearly impossible to use. It was $12 for adults which I guess is reasonable. I wish that price included something else like parking as well.

They even have brunch.. bummer that I'm not gonna be able to go there that day. But another trip will stop in for brunch. They have legit biscuits and gravy. Large and spacious, and great big bar. When driving up look for the parking lot to the left of the building. But if you drive by it just pull into the small driveway on the other side of the building to get back around to it. You can enter both sides. Check out my pictures for brunch.
