What a cool place. When visiting I have driven passed it a hundred times and finally while out on…read morea ride with my brother I asked if we could stop. So many interesting animals (taxidermy) to look at in the nature center. I purchased a hat for only $15. Everywhere else they were $25 and up. I did not go on the trail so I can't tell you anything about it. There is plenty of parking but the sign makes it a little confusing on when and where you can park. I have to say Sandy who was on staff was so knowledgeable and interesting to speak with. She has a wealth of information and is very nice. This is a great place to visit with a child or not. aug 2023

There's a little nature center building here and a small lake/lagoon you can walk around. The walk…read moreis completely flat and all of 1/4 mile. The trail is a loop. I can't rate the nature center because it was closed. The door was open and there were people inside, and it was during "open" hours, but they told me it was closed. So it goes. The walk around the lake is pleasant enough but very short. You'll probably see some interesting birds. Free parking in the small lot.

First time visiting the Oside Moose Lodge. Admission is for members and guests only and were graced…read morewith an invite from local friends. There is no cover charge or admission fees. We enjoyed live music from a Rock and Roll band, socialized with good company, and cooled off with drinks that were fairly priced. The atmosphere is good, with cool separate spaces including a poker table, billiards room, outdoor patio, and dance floor. All staff was very friendly and welcoming. Parking can be tricky since the lot is very small and adjacent businesses highly discourage non-business parking. Our friends gave us detailed information on the membership benefits and we are definitely considering. Till the next time, Oside Moose Lodge.

How fun was it to be a qualified guest & on a live music night too! I've never been there before…read morebut had always wanted to see what it was all about. It's in O'side off the 101 and it's a locals staple to its members and sometimes guests. I have some friends that are members and have told me how they enjoyed their time there. I've checked their website previously and have considered joining myself but held off as life just went by. Parking can be tricky because their lot is small & neighboring businesses have their own lots so we found street parking on the other side of the block and walked on over. It's an old lodge and has lots of retro style designs and decor throughout. You get bang for your bucks for quality cocktails and drinks all made by volunteers that work for tips. To my surprise I knew even more people that were already there enjoying community time together. It's fun being with people who vibe as your tribe in commonalities. Knowing these friends frequent the same type of venues and activities that I do makes considering joining even more appealing. My friends all expressed how they have great cause fundraiser events and game nights there. Like trivia and such. Fun! We got to enjoy it on Rock n Roll night and the music was by Reagan "guitar" Williams & band. They definitely Rocked! People danced and socialized well here and everyone looked happy to be there. *I feel like the website could be refreshed and spoofed up a tad more. I can definitely can get on board with places that invest in maintaining betterment of their community and those in need etc. We had a great evening with our friends and being newbie guests to the establishment was much more than we expected. Looking forward to another visit sometime soon.

When I walked into the space, the man working greeted me quickly and said I could fill out a small paper choosing my favorite piece, and they do a 'best in show' every month, based on the votes. That painting will be featured and the artist gets a ribbon too. It made the experience interactive, which I really enjoyed. Can't wait to see who wins!

I was told they were booked until late March but I could try coming in early on a Saturday because usually those individuals who make early appointments on Saturday don't make it. I opted for making an appointment in late March to stay safe, but would come in on an early Saturday morning to see how my luck is with getting my taxes done due to someone's failure to appear. I was almost done scheduling the appointment with the receptionists up front when they asked how much $$ I earned in 2012 -- needless to say I didn't qualify. It sucks but whatever, the customer service was good and who can say anything bad about gratis services?! I recommend this place if you qualify. TIP: Don't bother making an appointment over the phone. Find a location closest to you, walk in there, and actually make an appointment with a receptionist behind the desk. If you call the number, you will only receive a voicemail and the voicemail clearly states they will return your call sometime within 7 days. "AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT!!"
